Vagrant and Node.js quick tip
For one of our projects we are using Vagrant and Chef to provision virtual machines for development. The idea as you might know already is to have the same development environment for all devs.

It's always the same issue... you write unit tests for a web-service, giving you a feeling of confidence about the correctness of your code. Then the service provider changes the response without notifying you. Suddenly your implementation doesn't work anymore, but even your continuous integration server says it's "all green".
Recently, we had a hackday at Liip, where we dived into game development with JavaScript. Our goal was to see how hard it is to produce a simple cross platform game using just JavaScript and HTML5 elements. Since we didn't want to reinvent the wheel, we decided to use a JavaScript game framework.
This Thursday we host the 2nd edition of innovation after work. The purpose of the format is to get new perspectives on any sort of topic. This time we are focusing on time and information management. Would be great to see you in Fribourg!
