Hep 0.2.2
I released Hep 0.2.2 today. Hopefully this release fixes the ‘The socket operation could not complete without blocking’ errors people were getting when running Hep on windows.
Here’s a secret: I don’t know a lot about network programming. I’d never worked with network sockets before I started Hep. Now I’m writing web and e-mail servers from scratch, figuring it out as I go. That’s how programming is. You get an idea of what you want a program to do, and then you set out to make it happen. Along the way you learn about the inner workings of things you never even thought about before. Writing software is a mix of inventing and exploring, which are both fun things to do. That’s why I like it.
