and I really like trackballs

they rock

I'm trying to make AutoHotKey work as a mouse. Fn+Ctrl+Up will move the mouse up etc. It's working, but I can't seem to make it go across with Fn+Ctrl+Up+Left etc.

Haha, when I tell my brain to move my elbow out from the body, it goes 90 deg to the left. It's completely weird. Like there was some wires crossed.

Talked to the doctor, he figured it is still sedated, so I have no muscle control there yet.

@edvin great. it's only a problem if your muscle starts to involuntarily type scala. 😬

My hands have not written a single word of gibberish, or even boiler plate. Just pure TornadoFX builder bliss.

Working on the OSGi slide for the talk.

@edvin i'm doing some wildfly stuff and came across this. it's wildfly's take on java 9 modules. wildfly already has it's own module system (non OSGI) http://wildfly.org/news/2016/12/12/Jigsaws-Missing-Pieces/

Cool. At one point I had an idea to extract the module system from JBOSS to create a custom container. But I really want to improve OSGi support in TornadoFX even further. I have some ideas, will talk more about them when my slides are done.

I really love Wildfly, BTW. I have a central domain controller which manages many different apps different app clusters. It's all so incredibly seamless. Then have done an incredible job.

sooo good with intellij too

as rapid as PHP development

Yeah. Small modules with a small number of dependencies reload in a few hundred millis.

the only problem is that sometimes i feel like it hasn't deployed. i'll test a fix, be surprised to see the test wasn't fixed, blame the deployment, and do a full restart before I realize that the code is still bad. It needs a noisy indicator like an engine sound on electric cars

tornadofx + wildfly web sockets is a nice pairing

@carlw I always hit Shift+F9 if I need to redeploy, look at the console for half a second, change to the browser and boom - done. If I work with JSF I use JSF development mode and hardly ever have to redeploy even. Yeah, websockets are so easy. I was wondering if it's worth adding an ehancement layer like we did for rest, but I don't know if it's even needed.

Well, that's a beautiful piece of hardware:

Great keycaps at :41

Watching the full presentation now. Very interesting.

The reaching at 1:14 probably doesn't look very comfortable for you now.

for something like that slider, a control below the spacebar would be more ergonomic

Maybe. The keyboard does look very nice though.

The arrow key cluster isn't nice though. I don't like half height arrup up/down keys.

@edvin how does every Surface announcement ad feel like a religious experience? Marketing is hypnotically effective.

Wildfly websockets is jboss remoting?

I have had bad experience with the old jboss AP and moved to tomee years ago

this escape key is doing my head in

so I switched to layer 2 and set it up in reverse just the ESC key does ` and the FN-ESC does ESC
