Mark, 

I purchased the book and I think I responded to your email regarding mailing 
address. However, I have not received my book. Has it been sent?

For the record, my mailing address is:

Thanks.

Re: How do you find beta testers?

2017-04-13 Thread Marian Petrides, MD via use-livecode

When I wrote an app to teach Transfusion Medicine, I selected 10 friends and 
colleagues--5 of them content experts in the field with no particular computer 
expertise and 5 of them friends I knew from Apple User Groups from way back in 
the days when all Apple ][ users were "hobbyists." The latter were tasked with 
beating up on the software, trying to break it. All of them got a free copy of 
the software. 

This worked quite well. In all the years the software was sold, I never got a 
single bug report, although I have gotten content feedback through the same 
publisher.

Re: [OT] And You Thought Richmond Kept Old Macs Alive

Gotcha all beat. I still have my Apple ][+ (purchased 4/4/1980) and it still 
works—did a power supply transplant 20 years ago. Plus three Apple ][ GSs—two 
work, one is parts for the others. 

And, of course, my 512K Enhanced Mac (Fat Mac), which also works. And a bunch 
of newer Macs, LC 2, gumdrop iMacs, fruit colored iBooks. All of them work. 
It’s a regular Mac museum in the making up there in my loft. Too bad I don’t 
have space to display all my goodies.

 Chase Small Business Mission Main Street competiton. If we are fortunate 
 enough to win, one of the projects we hope to develop and fund is a pilot 
 program that will teach LiveCode to local underprivileged inner-city middle 
 school children as an after school enrichment program. To be eligible for 
 round 2 of the grant process we need at least 250 people to vote for us. I 
 would really appreciate it if you could please show your support and vote. We 
 only have 11 days left to qualify.
 
 To cast your vote, simply click the “Vote Now” Facebook button on our Mission 
 Main Street Grant profile page. Here is the link to our voting page. 
 https://www.missionmainstreetgrants.com/business/detail/63345 
 
 Also, if you could share this with others and ask them to vote for 
 PediNatural® too, that would be great.
 
 PediNatural® is a well know leader in educational literacy focused products 
 for children. We believe introducing many types of literacy at an early age 
 will allow children to naturally master the developmental milestones that are 
 essential to solid learning foundations. I wholeheartedly believe that 
 teaching LiveCode to these children will creatively and effectively help them 
 develop a new way to think and thrive. 250 votes could give us the chance to 
 change lives and futures. We need the votes by 11:59:00 p.m. ET on October

 Hi,
 
 Way, way back, Basic Computer Games by David Ahl was the definitive book 
 about
 coding and playing games on what were then called home computers. I wanted 
 to
 make a similar book with 101 LiveCode computer games, but quickly realised 
 that
 it would take a very long time to do. Instead, today a more modest Coding 
 Nine
 LiveCode Games eBook is finished and available. You can find out more about 
 it
 at the link.
 
 http://livecodegamedeveloper.com/book.html
 
 It has 9 games:
 
 * Pong
 * Tetris
 * Dr. Eliza
 * 23 Matches
 * Tower Jump
 * Lunar Lander
 * Text Adventure
 * 3D Spider Hunt
 * 3D Isometric Maze
 
 I hope this book proves the clarity and power of LiveCode where code is 
 shorter,
 and so quicker to develop, than other languages. With
 most games coded in under 500 lines of LiveCode, this book demonstrates good
 technique. To stimulate ideas for further development, and inspire both new 
 and
 experienced LiveCoders.

Re: revOnline and Open Source

2013-08-01 Thread Marian Petrides MD

Heather,
I'm a late comer to this discussion so I might have missed a crucial piece.

However, I can conceive of situation in which I might freely share something
I've written, e. g. a lecture, but include a copyright notice to forestall
someone else using my work verbatim (or nearly so) and passing it off as their
own. In fact, I've always included a copyright notice in any handout I've
passed out at any lecture I've given. I'd be delighted if people would share my
work--as written and with proper attribution. OTOH, I would be seriously
annoyed to find large chunks of my work in someone else's textbook.

It seems to me that this is analogous to the situation you and earlier posters
have described. Does this make sense?

Marian

I've nothing against people protecting their code if they want to. It's
theirs. But if they upload it, openly, to a shared site… what do they expect
people to do with it?

I'm open to being educated. Maybe there is some reason someone would do this.
I just … don't get it. Certainly, that was the original rationale behind
providing the revOnline site. To allow users to share their code and their
expertise with others, if they chose to do so. This community has always been
amazingly sharing and helpful to each other.

This is my personal opinion. I am not a lawyer. It does not represent any
official position at RunRev.

Well, I started the thread, and the reaction was both amazing, and, I
believe, healthy; surely the more people
are involved in this sort of discussion the more chance there is of having
some sort of consensus.

If RunRev are presenting themselves as 'open', at least as far as their Open
Source half is concerned, then
this sort of discussion is necessary; and the thing that is really good is
that Kevin Miller has become involved.

Certainly, at the risk of sounding mind-bogglingly naive, I had always
assumed that stuff available on revOnline
was there for the taking; and when I uploaded stuff to the older version
(now obviated) of revOnline
I didn't bother about any licensing documents on the understanding that
anybody who wanted could just help themselves to my code and get on with it.

I have also been rather careful about the bits of code that are mission
critical to my commercial product.

Obviously things are not nearly so simple as I fondly imagined.

What precipitated my starting this thread was my spotting, on revOnline, a
color picker stack that
DOES contain an explicit copyright statement.

 Hi Folks,
 
 I was browsing reddit when I found this little eBook about SQL aimed at new
 users.
 
 http://www.dreamincode.net/forums/blog/48/entry-4251-my-free-ebook-a-primer-on-sql/
 
 It's 42 pages long and it appears to be a good and solid intro to standard
 SQL.
 
 Thought some people here would be interested in such book.
 
 Cheers
 andre

Wonder if they can do facial recognition on canine faces? Those are the only 
photos I ever post. :-))

 well they cannot find out more about you than you tell them.
 
 They know far more about you than you can imagine:
 
 
 FB collects more data about you than you know, it's shared more widely than 
 you know, legal protections are spotty, and malicious behavior related to FB 
 is on the rise:

 Your current location and activity, among other things, can be picked up and 
 broadcast without your knowledge; stop using FB apps:

 Breach of privacy extends to non-members of Facebook (and lots of other info):

 Identity theft using off the shelf facial recognition software (keep your 
 profile private and take down that photo):

 Until recently they did even worse until a lawsuit stopped some of it. Their 
 approach seems to be that they will infringe without telling you until they 
 are forced to stop.

Re: Standalones not opening in Mountain Lion

That was true until Lion. Now Rosetta is not even an option--unless someone has 
found a trick I'm unaware of.

 I seem to remember that Rosetta is still available.  It is just not
 installed by default.  I think the installation medium should have a way of
 installing Rosetta.

Re: [OT] Apple Rant

I think you have 30 days from the date of purchase to start watching and 24 
hours from the time you start to finish the movie.

 If I recall correctly, when you rent a movie you have 24 hours to watch it
 starting at the time you actually start playing the movie, otherwise I
 think it can sit there for a while (not sure how long) waiting for you to
 kick start the timer. . Not sure anymore though as my first gen (of the new
 gen of apple tv's) rolled craps after 5 months.
