Thoughts on Google Glass for Developers

Monday of November 25, 2013

Google glass development kit is already out for download https://developers.google.com/glass/. To start working with GDK you should at have a degree of android development background since it is build ontop for andoids core framework. Aside from developing native codes, I believe the real potential for the glass will be on its Google Mirror API and Web Service features. My two cents on the following for the glass.

1. To reduce cost remove the voice features. Just display the message on the panel.

2. Have a touch sensitive button on the side for the glass.

3. Have a framework to communicate android phone and glass Asynchronously.

WinMerge filter for SVN and CVS directories

Wednesday of July 24, 2013

Using winmerge can be difficult if you could not filter the files you intended to compare within a given directory, specially if you are using a repository tool like SVN or CVS which creates a housekeeping folder for tracking. Below is a filter that can be used to ignore SVN and CVS folders.

## Ignore class and jar files
f: \\.class$
f: \\.jar$

## Ignore cvs folders
d: \\\\.CVS$
d: \\\\._CVS$
d: \\\\CVS$

## Ignore svn folders
d: \\\\.svn$
d: \\\\._svn$
