Last week I have been in Barcelona at the KDevelop / Kate sprint with all the other nice people working on those projects. As always, it was very cool to meet everyone again and spend a week together improving software. A big thanks to the organizers and sponsors, too! In the following, I want to give a quick summary of those. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Linux, Games, Programming, and some other random stuff. Tuesday, September 24, 2013. Collaborative text editing: 0.2 beta release and end of GSoC. After three months and 430 commits introducing 23165 changes (line insertions/removals; in the kte-collaborative repository, plus about 50 more commits in kde-telepathy and libqinfinity). The beta release I hereby announce marks the end of my Google Summer of Code project, which consisted of implementing collaborative text editing in KTextEditor ( see previous.

Linux, Games, Programming, and some other random stuff: 1420.4 MHz Hydrogen line: There it is!
http://scummos.blogspot.com/2014/08/14204-mhz-hydrogen-line-there-it-is.html
Linux, Games, Programming, and some other random stuff. Saturday, August 30, 2014. 14204 MHz Hydrogen line: There it is! With a reasonably simple setup, I finally succeeded in detecting the 1420.4 MHz galactic hydrogen hyperfine structure line:. Dish with mounted feed (for the latter, see text and pictures below). Since you obviously cannot simply attach a coaxial cable to a parabolic dish reflector, a so-called feed. The complete setup. With chairs to prevent people from tripping over the wires....Start...

Linux, Games, Programming, and some other random stuff: Project: Detecting the 1420.4MHz hydrogen line -- status report
http://scummos.blogspot.com/2014/07/project-detecting-14204mhz-hydrogen.html
Linux, Games, Programming, and some other random stuff. Wednesday, July 23, 2014. Project: Detecting the 1420.4MHz hydrogen line - status report. First thing you need is an antenna. For this purpose, I built a 14-element Yagi antenna, as seen below. 14-element 1.4GHz Yagi antenna. Closeup of the amplifier next to the resonator of the antenna. The circuitry is hidden below the copper shielding. S11 of the yagi antenna shown above. x is frequency, y is log reflected power (lower is better). For low-noise a...

Linux, Games, Programming, and some other random stuff. Monday, September 15, 2014. Snippets in Kate 5. Classical snippets use case: insert a for loop witout having to type the iterator variable three times. The template interface, which is part of the long-time stable KTextEditor API, was heavily cleaned up and now just consists of a single function. Bool insertTemplate(const KTextEditor: Cursor& insertPosition, const QString& templateString, const QString& script = QString() ;. Fields are updated. ...

Linux, Games, Programming, and some other random stuff. Tuesday, April 30, 2013. About SSD hard drive durability. But, how about its durability? Of course, I can only really tell about the durability once it breaks, but there is a handy little tool called smartctl. From what I understand, this is the maximum amount of times a block on the disk has been re-written (you know, of the 10k times it is supposed to survive). Interestingly, after 18 months of daily usage, this is a whopping 53. So: From the bloc...

Linux, Games, Programming, and some other random stuff: 21cm hydrogen line telescope, version 2
http://scummos.blogspot.com/2015/04/21cm-hydrogen-line-telescope-version-2.html
Linux, Games, Programming, and some other random stuff. Sunday, April 26, 2015. 21cm hydrogen line telescope, version 2. Much has happened since my last status report. On my attempts to observe the galactic hydrogen emission at the famous 1420.4 MHz hyperfine structure line. Now, the new setup is finally proven to be basically working, and in this post I want to describe some of the changes I did. New data acquisition module. Some of the components of the acquisition board. Through a so-called mixer.

Linux, Games, Programming, and some other random stuff. Friday, February 7, 2014. Kate: intelligent code completion for all languages! Well, maybe that's a bit of an exaggeration, but it's certainly much more intelligent than before. Look:. Code completion in CSS. Note how this one has a different set of possible items for the same query, respecting the context. Completion for doxygen keywords inside a doxygen comment. How does this work? Those keywords are even context-sensitive: you will notice that e&...
