"I completely agree with your article about the frat boy environment in Silicon Valley and think we as a community need to take steps to change it. However, the reference to the question on Quora is out of context, that question is tongue in cheek and many of the answers are making fun of 'brogrammers'." - durbin

How to stream video to your XBox360 using Ubuntu + uShare Posted by slayton on April 26, 2009 I’ve known for a while that the newest Xbox 360 software supports streaming video from a computer running Window Media Center. What I didn’t know is that when Microsoft added the media center capabilities they decided to use someone else’s media server standard; UPnP to be precise. This is really exciting because this means that anybody who implements this standard can stream video to an Xbox over the network. I run Ubuntu Linux and discovered that there are several programs you can install that will setup a UPnP Media Server, the one I picked to use is uShare. To install ushare I opened a terminal and ran: sudo apt-get install ushare After that I had to edit the ushare configuration file saved under /etc/ushare.conf If you don’t feel comfortable editing the file you can run to help you setup the configuration file. sudo dpkg-reconfigure ushare Here is how I setup my file (I’ve removed the... - durbin

ANT is a 2.4GHz practical wireless networking protocol and embedded system solution specifically designed for wireless sensor networks (WSN) that require:   ultra low power - runs on a coin cell for years of operation; highly resource optimized - fits into a compact sized memory; network flexibility and scalability - self-adaptive and able to do practical mesh, easy to use with low system cost - operates independently with a single chip Proven with millions of deployed nodes, ANT™ is perfectly suited for any kind of low data rate sensor network topologies - from peer- to-peer or star, to practical mesh - in personal area networks (PAN) which are well suited for sports, fitness, wellness and home health applications. As well ANT is a practical solution for local area networks (LAN) for homes and industrial automation applications. - durbin

The tool, RunSnakeRun, inserts hooks in the Python interpreter to build a report of where time is spent, a bit à la Valgrind/Kcachegrind but much simpler, and to display the results using both tables and a rectangular tree-structured inclusion graph (a “SquareMap”, see here). - durbin
