| Btw, I have recently started a small code battle upon an easy task. | |
| The goal is to improve your self estimation skill and to code something minimalistic in the shortest time possible. | |
| If you want to join the battle, just do the following: | |
| 1) Check the briefing: "Create a webservice that is generating the 'Che Guevara Effect' on an uploaded picture" | |
| I have already done my job and implemented an working version of this here: http://che-guevara-fy.heroku.com/ | |
| 2) You can accept the challenge by giving an upfront estimate on how much time you think is needed to implement and deploy the briefing. |
| #!/usr/bin/env ruby | |

| require 'fileutils' | |

| new_plist = "#{plist}.new.tmproj" | |
| gitignore = ARGV[1] || '.gitignore' | |
| if File.exist?(plist) && File.exist?(gitignore) |
A new challenge is on. This time @rtacconi had the idea:
"Idea:
Create a simple persistent key/value storage capable of SET, GET and DELETE actions.
It is forbidden to use Redis, MongoDB, or other ready made key/value solutions,
only storage to file, databases, serialization... are allowed

Read about the end result here
Join me when I start brewing my first batch of Club Mate. Inspired by a podcast from chaos radio express on the topic "Hackerbrausen" (Hacker's soda, listen here) I want to try this by myself.
So far I have bought all the necessary ingrediends and tools to get started. And with the help from Jan (@janl) I can even carbonate the end result :)
See the original post here: Hacking Club Mate "imatate"
Brewing was easy. Many people joined, and they did enjoy my special surprise: "Mate jelly shots". So after having a debate over how much gram is a cup for sugar, I just went by visual judgment. Out came two batches, I made a bigger one for Imatate and a small one for Maca Mate. Cooling was definitely an issue, it took ages to heat the huge pot and it took ages to cool it down. So we decided to put everything in the refridgerator and wait for the night to pass.
