Great idea, bad example

Posted by Synfinatic on January 23, 2009 at 3:29 pm in Cool, Tech.

So a buddy of mine at work (thanks Mike!) sent me this cool link about how to use real math to measure the complexity of user interfaces. I read the article (feel free to go read it now) and I loved the idea of quantitatively measuring the effort required to use a UI to determine how simple it is.

While I think Aza is on the right track, I’d like to point out how the devil is in the details and how hard it is to map theory to practice.

Tcpreplay 4.0 devel has started…

Posted by Synfinatic on January 21, 2009 at 12:03 pm in tcpreplay.

OK, I have to admit- priorities have really changed for the next major Tcpreplay release. You can thank (or I guess depending on your perspective, blame) Abdel Younes who has stepped up and offered to create a GUI for Tcpreplay. Honestly, if it wasn’t for Abdel I’m not really sure I’d even be working on the next major release.
