15 degrees + today, feels like summer. Gonna chill all day outside today and enjoy the nice weather :)
@prologic@twtxt.net Ah man, that sounds nice! I do not drink - except that I have one cider during the summer vacation. (Always look forward to that one).
Other then that I love energy drinks, not that they help in any way - just tastes good :)
I’m on my way to the office now shortly, ready for a new day with realtime 3D and coding.

Dino: Stateless File Sharing: Sources and Compatibility
This is my next progress post about my Google Summer of Code project of implementing Stateless File Sharing (sfs)
Like everything else we receive, we need to store the sfs sources in a database.

I won’t refrain from explaining terms you might take for gran … ⌘ Read more
