After about a month of work, cara (Cap'n proto Alternative RPC API) is finally ready for internal use for Chain Reaction Mfg's main project.
The features required are finally working (and tested): 1. Send raw data and structs over the wire (like everybody else). 2. Send interfaces over the wire …continue
Up until this week, cara had been outputting its schema files something like this:
import cara
ann = cara.Annotation(name='ann', type=cara.Text)
class MyStruct(cara.Struct):
field1 = cara.Field(name='field1', type=cara.Int32)
However, this causes various problems due to capnp allowing use of types declared later …continue
Having started a new project that requires RPC, but without the benefits (and restrictions) imposed by my previous employer, I've gone on a detour towards building another RPC layer.

Do you want to use C++ on the Pebble but sad that you can't? Well you're in luck! It's now possible! Continued from Pebble Development with C++ on the mind (Part 1).
All you have to do is alter the wscript file to enable proper compilation, actually. But if you …continue
I've recently been working on Pebble smartwatch development, but I've spent the past 7 years in a C++ and Python based world, whether it was web development with Django, a C++ webserver, or a myriad of Python-based tools and frameworks. With C++ and Python, ignoring class hierarchies and many of …continue
I'm sure many Mint Plus owners have noticed the USB port, and quite a few have even hooked it up to their computer to find out what it does. Sadly, by default, it does nothing. Now before you go pressing all the buttons, here's what you should not do:

There are quite a few implementations for this problem, but none of them worked quite as well. picloud's cloudpickle is great!
The problem: You have a python function on one computer that you want to execute on the other. The naive way is rather simple, but you quickly run into …continue
