[Pharo-project] "Is a typo fix in a comment worth $1?"
by Marcus Denker April 21, 2011

http://www.daemonology.net/blog/2011-04-21-tarsnap-bug-bounties.html Is a typo fix in a comment worth $1? Personally I think it is: My experience as FreeBSD Security Officer has taught me that code readability matters a lot, and simple things like typographical errors in comments or inconsistent code indentation can allow bugs to lurk undetected for years as everybody glances past the "ugly" section of code. -- Marcus Denker -- http://www.marcusdenker.de INRIA Lille -- Nord Europe.

Hi guys. Cog info is a little spread in different places. I've just updated the home pages of: https://gitorious.org/cogvm http://code.google.com/p/cog/ I put all the interested links so that at least we can jump from one place to another other one. If you (Eliot?) feel more links or info should be put, please let me know. Best regards, -- Mariano http://marianopeck.wordpress.com

[Pharo-project] Balloon engine and bitmap fills: any clues why it ignores an alpha channel of bitmap?
by Igor Stasenko April 21, 2011

April 21, 2011

I tried various paint rules 24, 34 nothing. A balloon engine seems like completely ignores an alpha channel, so i could use it for filling shapes using bitmaps as long as these bitmaps fully opaque. I thought i could use a generic way to render bitmaps, instead of using awkward warpBlt... but it seems like something in plugin discards/ignores an alpha channel of source bitmap. I would be happy if this is not true. -- Best regards, Igor Stasenko AKA sig.
