Re: Domain Driven Design With Nuxt Layers

nathanchase — Tue, 07 Jan 2025 21:41:22 -0000

For this approach, I like to use a naming and folder convention like this:

- /layers // By default, ~/layers directory will be auto-register layers in your main project
---- Movies // use a PascalCase for your layer name
------ /components
------ /composables
------ /pages
--------/movie
---------- [id].vue
------ /stores // Pinia stores for the layer
------ /types // Typescript declared interfaces/types for your layer's concerns
------ nuxt.config.ts

It's an interesting way to work, certainly, although I do find that I am jumping around from layer to layer often, so I'm not sure if it's ultimately a better organization strategy or not.

Re: Using Razor partials (cshtml) with Aurelia components

nathanchase — Mon, 24 Aug 2015 10:21:53 -0000

I got it to work with the following:

ConventionalViewStrategy.convertModuleIdToViewUrl = function(moduleId){
var moduleName = moduleId.split('/').pop();
moduleName = moduleName.substring(0, moduleName.length - 3);
return `./Templates/${moduleName}`;
}

Not sure if it's the best method, but seems to work at least for this example. Thoughts?

Florian,

Thanks very much for this, and putting it on GitHub. I'm hitting an error on running the project locally. I get this:

GET http://localhost:3000/Templates/http://localhost:3000/lantern.js 404 (Not Found)

I haven't altered your code (just git cloned, ran the jspm init, and retrieved the aurelia components), so I'm not sure where the problem is. I imagine it's something to do with the ConventionalViewStrategy.convertModuleIdToViewUrl block.

Can you verify you're not getting this error if you clone your project as is?

Very sorry to hear this. Chloe's thoughts on life's balance seem right on the mark. While the loss of your friend is inconsolable, know that your wife and child will reap the benefits of your hard work on a project that received such immense passion and dedication. Congratulations and consolations to you, Tom. All the best to you and your family moving forward.

I love Explorers. Joe Dante's magic is all over that film.

Definitely "An American Werewolf in London" is #1. "Monster Squad" was a definite favorite as a kid.

My grandmother's favorite movie was The Howling - strangely enough. I've yet to see it - I should...

I just watched a fun New Zealand mockumentary recently called "What We Do in the Shadows" that has a great twist on werewolves (and vampires) living in modern-day New Zealand. Very funny stuff.

Anna Kendrick is such an unlikely Hollywood musical star, but she's sure been in a string of them lately.

Panic Room will always be one of my all-time favorite opening credit sequences.

Watchmen's intro is an incredible way to tell backstory visually for such a dense story - compressed into such a short time span. Brilliant.

"+1" is sort of in this vein, as well, albeit from a different angle. You could argue Primer, too.

I'm hoping to make it to this. I'd also be happy to help beta test or be there for rehearsal. Exciting stuff!

Re: 48fps: The Ultimate Battle Of Art vs Tech

nathanchase — Sat, 28 Apr 2012 22:21:29 -0000

One can point to the decline of the American video arcades as an example of an entertainment art form being homogenized into gimmick-filled experiences rather than pure game experiences.

They've fought the same battles that film is now battling: the home experience outperformed the public experience. Consoles became better, faster, prettier, and more sophisticated than arcades could ever hope to. As a result, they added plastic guns, steering wheels, entire gyroscopic ride mechanisms - all with the hope that you'd patronize their establishments more often. But the public has already decided that playing games at home is an infinitely better experience than playing games in an arcade.

The parallels are clear; moviegoers find the Blu-ray, HD presentations in their home theaters more pleasant, less costly, and more personalized. Theaters are at their limits on ticket prices, so they've begun to resort to the gimmicks to make you walk through their doors. 3D. Fake IMAX. And now, 48fps.

At some point, even if 48fps were successful in theaters, the tech will become as ubiquitous in the home (as 3D is becoming) that the theater will run out of parlor tricks to convince you it's worth your dollar.

There will always be amazing cinemas just as there will always be fantastic arcades, but both will become marginalized to only their zealous patrons who yearn for the heydays of their respective entertainment venues.

Re: 7 Reasons to Consider a Boxee Box over a Roku

nathanchase — Sat, 31 Dec 2011 07:57:23 -0000

Reason #1 is essential in my book. Boxee can play anything - I've never had a file format it couldn't play back. The interface is also very family friendly, which goes a long way too as I don't have to be the one to navigate to content if others in the house want to watch something specific. The social features are very nice - underhyped I think as no other device does anything similar.

Re: Hold Your Applause: The Case For and Against Clapping in a Cinema

nathanchase — Wed, 31 Aug 2011 14:51:13 -0000

I believe it's all about the constitution of the audience. At a packed, standing-room-only screening of a blockbuster, or a hilarious comedy, or a midnight showing of a cult classic, applause is welcome and usually expected. They're usually paired with hoots and hollars. It's all part of just making some sort of audible indication that you're excited or enjoy the moment.

Seeing a drama at a matinee with 11 other people in the theater seldom produces the same environment to where applause is appropriate.

Honestly, I've seen more people applaud trailers or commercials before the movie than during the movie itself.

Re: Unfiltered: Best of the Beasts

For what it's worth, The Two Towers Extended Edition is 223 minutes, Fellowship's is 208 minutes, and Return of the King's is 250 minutes. Any of those would certainly apply, if they were the versions you've seen...

I have yet to see any of the extended films, but Rings fans seem to dig 'em.
