… it’s friday :)

Ok. Stop. Just for the two of you that are thinking this is real as in real war.
It’s just a short series that went on air in the beginning of 2010 on Sky1HD. Haven’t seen it, but I’ve stumbled over a video on youtube while searching for Richard Armitage.

I’m not going to embed it – be warned it’s a little graphic.

The interesting part came up around 1m 35s: They where fiddling around with a laptop using a typical movie-style-user-interface. Yeah. Not so typical. It isn’t that colored, trekkie-like and it’s not 3D(!).

A scene a couple seconds before showed some running code/ logfile/ whatever. And in this scene there was only one running part on the left. I was astonished. Some words did look familiar – it looked like “jQuery“. So I switched to a higher resolution. Made some screenshots, did some sharpening and came up with this:

WOW. They can hack into a guidance system with jQuery. That’s so awesome. I hoped to find a official jQuery-Plugin for that, but wasn’t successful ;)

OK. I was curious if this was actual self-written code. Maybe they did something cool with CANVAS in a Chrome Experiments kind of way.

So I picked this line:
var current_tags = jQuery(taxbox).find(“.the-tags”).val().split(“.”);

Turned out negative. The first hit on Google goes directly to wordpress….

Drei Stunden Arbeit mit BBedit, Firefox, Versions, Terminal und Sequel Pro.
Erfasst ist hier nur der Hauptdisplay – auf meinem Zweitdisplay liegen so Dinge wie das Mailprgramm.
Das ist definitiv Kunst.

Die Software: Ein kleines, aber feines JAR, das man hier beziehen kann.
