A moment of reflection
My editor just crashed with some unsaved data, 15 minutes of coding gone. Now it's time to stop cursing, take a deep breath and use a moment to reflect.
Now, that helped
Oh, by the way: this is a throbber made using <canvas>. You may use it if you like it. Just use 'view source' for the code

Nice work! If we had a like button I would have pressed it. 

thats a nice way to put itYour browser does not support canvas, so probably it is outdated and you could better use this time to install a better one!

darn editors always crashing on the wrong time!
Only 15 minutes? Pah. Try spending hundreds of hours on a project, only to find out the original contractor ends up cancelling the project for reasons unknown, most likely related to them not wanting to invest the day or so of work still required

Yes, that's much, much worse than your computer crashing.
Also, autosaves and ctrl+s spasms.

Start coding in Word 2010.
It has a recoverfunction
It has a recoverfunction

The second time you start coding, the result is always better
Why don't you have a editor with autosave support btw?

I do, well sort-off, but somehow the recovery file was non-existent (notepad++ by the way)Sebazzz wrote on Thursday 04 November 2010 @ 23:56:

would be nice.

I still think a throbber with a self-animated set of PNG sprites would look better.

That's no fun; I did that already 7 years agoNMe wrote on Friday 05 November 2010 @ 00:25:

Besides: this is probably smaller in file size

I can't see the actual source now, but it seems to works on Android 2.2 

It's "hard-edge" and "soft-edge" are the wrong way aroud
Usually the darkest color leads and the fading colors follow. Which doesn't mean it has to be so, it just makes more sense to me that way. Now it seems to be running backwards

The previous one was better 

Just switch
c = Math.min(255, Math.floor(150 + 20 * (12 - j)));
with
c = Math.min(255, Math.floor(150 + 20 * j));

We offered him a decent editor/IDE (first Eclipse+PDT, than later PhpStorm), but he is really fond of Notepad++ and doesn't believe in the usefullness of IDE's.Sebazzz wrote on Thursday 04 November 2010 @ 23:56:

So this is the price he has to pay for that

using linux fixed all my problems i had with windows crashing... maybe a suggestion?
i found nano verry good at the job on the command line, gedit, bluefish or gphpedit. you could also use a fully charged eclipse if you want to. Hell it could even help you charge your OV chip
what do you say, are you with me?! open-source FTW!!!

- I do wonder though, i cant seam to find any decent 'real world' blog item about this subject and ofcource i really do wonder why someone would prefer not to use a fullblown IDE. 'i mean most blogs about 'why you should use an IDE', are full of crap so crisp if you would be so kind as to try working with an IDE for 1 (one) week and share with us why you like or dont like it that would sirriously make for interesting reading.ACM wrote on Friday 05 November 2010 @ 07:53:

The top stroke is too long grey as if the animation stops there for a moment.
thats because it does. it goes around, then it goes around again, starting over.Jogai wrote on Friday 05 November 2010 @ 09:47:

Indeed, I did not notice that untill now. I'll fix that when I feel like it, but I do take patches as wellJogai wrote on Friday 05 November 2010 @ 09:47:

In fairness, Notepad++ does have something that phpStorm lacks dearly: single file editing.ACM wrote on Friday 05 November 2010 @ 07:53:

True, I actually have four editors I use regularly. PhpStorm for most PHP-work, Eclipse for the Java-work, Notepad++ for single file-edits and GVIM for when I need to do some advanced text-transforms in a file (i.e. its integrated regexp-support is very powerful).MueR wrote on Friday 05 November 2010 @ 11:19:

replace
code:
1
| if ( ++j > 12 ) |
with
code:
1
| if ( ++j > 12 && i < 11 ) |
Edit:
It solves the first bug, but creates an 'heartbeat' effect. Sorry

Meanwhile I fixed it myself

A decent editor doesn't take ages to load. Notepad++ starts up in a snap, always and with the previous workset. It never fails on me. It never lags. And it's pretty much completely configurable. I agree with crisp on this; I love the damn program to death.We offered him a decent editor/IDE (first Eclipse+PDT, than later PhpStorm), but he is really fond of Notepad++ and doesn't believe in the usefullness of IDE's.
On the autosave thing; you know Murphy's law? Exactly. Much better to turn autosave off in the first place and simply ctrl+s, ctrl+s and ctrl+s until it's so ingrained in the muscle-memory of your left hand that you don't even realize you're doing it twice every minute.
