Dallas Drake's last act in the NHL was hoisting the Stanley Cup. Not a bad way to cap 16 seasons as a pro. The Detroit Red Wings forward announced his retirement Tuesday, a month after he finally got to skate with hockey's Holy Grail. "I think it's a good way for me to go out," he said. The 39-year-old Drake said he's still mentally fit to play, but that "the wear and tear on my body" has become impossible to ignore. "I just don't recover very well anymore," he said. "Physically, I'm done. ...

Since starting at One Laptop per Child I have been doing some distro work on the OS platform for the XO laptop. The platform is based on Fedora 7 and I have been working on rebasing us onto Fedora 9 for the next release. Having very little distribution experience outside of developing Gentoo for the last few years, I’ve found some aspects of Fedora’s binary package (RPM) workflow particularly interesting: Automatically detected dependencies : In Gentoo ebuilds, we have to state that package A depends on library B. In Fedora, when building the binary package, the build tools determine many runtime dependencies automatically so there is no need for developers to manually list all dependencies in spec files. Chroot build environments : All packages are built in an otherwise-empty chroot. The build system creates a chroot, quickly installs all of the base binary packages and the build dependencies, then builds/installs a package, produces a package, and throws the chroot away. This allows for predictable build environments and is good for QA. Community access to the build box : All packages are built by Koji . Koji has a nice “scratch-build” system where you can throw a source RPM at it, and it will build it and serve it back to you on a webpage a few minutes later. Great for build testing and handy if you don’t have a complete build environment locally. The scratch-build service is open to non-developers assuming they have been through t ...

If the premise of this game intrigues you then you should buy it and play it. There’s not much that needs to be said – I can’t recommend it enough if you’re in the least bit interested in action/adventure movies. In fact, this is an Indiana Jones or National Treasure experience in game form, and arguably does just about everything better than those movies do. As such, it’s an advertisement for where gaming could take us, and shows the potential for it to be a more engaging form of storytelling. Nathan Drake is an everyman, a sort of reluctant hero. He’s a bounty hunter out to make a quick buck by helping a documentary film-maker called Elena Fisher find Sir Francis Drake’s coffin and an interesting story. Being an opportunist, when he finds a notebook left by Drake he ditches Elena and flies off with his friend and business partner Sully to find the treasure Sir Francis mapped. Of course, it’s not so simple; Drake’s notebook is really just a set of clues that send Nathan all around the Caribbean in search of El Dorado (what else would a bounty hunter be searching for?) The Shooter’s New Clothes The mechanics of Uncharted are closely related to those in Tomb Raider and Prince of Persia, with everything happening in the third person (meaning we see Nathan on screen as we control him). As in those games you find yourself climbing ropes, shimmying along ledges and generally doing what we call “platforming.” There is, however, also qui ...
