Ask HN: Linux for tablets? 15 years ago
I have used Ubuntu on this HP TouchSmart TM2 flippy-screen tablet PC since I bought it. Touchscreen, stylus, basically everything works.
HTML5 based drag and drop game creator 15 years ago
I think the Squeak Etoys and MIT Scratch movement have been going mainstream, judging from the appearance of blocks-style drag-and-drop programming environments in these very democratizing game-making tools.
Meanwhile I've been building a GPLed Squeak/Scratch inspired game making app, as an extension to Common Lisp. The language extension is called Blocky, and the site is http://blocky.io
What do people think of the visual language aspect of some of these tools (such as Stencyl and Werkkzeug?) Is anyone interested in exploring the Common Lisp side of this scene?
There's also Scheme work going on with Scheme Bricks and Fluxus which I blogged about a while back. http://blocky.io/blog/2011/07/07/go-check-out-schemebricks/
