Prime Peace

I think prime numbers are the numerical expression of peace. Restful nodes in the vibration of everything.

Prime factorisation has always struck me as something truly astounding and it is reassuring to know that awsesome minds are hard at work trying to solve the Riemann hypothesis right now.

There are some truly wonderful professional and amateur (in the nicest sense of the word) explorations I have watched recently and the ones that moved me the most, in order of cool factor were:


This guy,Carlos Paris, has put in some serious work with AutoCAD and made some interesting observations. I truly enjoyed watching all of his four videos. Awesome work Carlos. As an interested amateur I found his work and thoughts to be very compelling. I am sure the professionals would groan or moan but to me this video is most excellent and informative.

Speaking of the professionals, this video is also very interesting to watch as it goes some way to visually explaining the Riemann hypothesis in a way that a layman can understand (that’s me), in fact I believe his audience to have mostly consisted of young kids and their parents!



So… as I continue my studies and dreaming of a million dollars, I truly hope that there is another (Sir) Andrew John Wiles out there close to a proof of RH ???

PHP and Lisp: multiple-value-bind (MVB)

This is another article in my attempts to find new ways of looking at PHP and making it less of a chore to type in all that code. As much as I love PHP I hate wasting keystrokes. More typing is more errors is more grief. Being an off and on user of Lisp, although not as much as I used to, one of the things that I always liked in Lisp was the ability to be able to return multiple values from a function at once using (values) and then marry that with (multiple-value-bind) to create convenient named bindings for whatever you were about to do. I recently found myself wanting to return a couple of values from a helper function and I just didn't want to go to the trouble of having to type all those character required to create an array with keys for the two values and then I remembered MVB and a little light went on in my head! If somebody else has already done this then I apologise up front but it was new to me and I haven't seen it anywhere else so this could be a first! ...

Communicating between controllers in AngularJS

I have seen many solutions to how to make controllers talk to each other whilst at the same time remaining within "da rulez" of writing Angular applications. I have been using Angular for about a month now and at times it has been swearier than a good Haskell session, it is most definitely worth it all in the end. I have written a really nice looking web application for my employer and they seem to like it. I think Angular. One thing I really aced (to my own satisfaction at least) was wrapping a REST (of any type) API using a resource. I will make a separate post about that. Do the simplest thing... Here is my own solution to the problem of how you can make different controllers communicate cleanly using the "event" system that Angular provides. All you have to do is ensure that the following event listener is added to your application root-scope: App.run( function( $rootScope )) { $rootScope.$on('broadcast', function( e, data ) { if (undef...
