Change changing places

Posted by craig  Published in A day in the life, Computers, Programming, Python

Today marks the day that I shipped off my office equipment to my former employer. Next week, I’ll be starting a new job; one where I’ll be working web development in my favorite new language, Python.

I miss CompUSA

Posted by craig  Published in A day in the life, Computers

JoDee and I went to get some more case fans for Lister (see the previous post). I think we both agree that we really, really miss CompUSA. No, it’s not because CompUSA had great selection (they really didn’t), or that their prices were any better (they weren’t). No, the real reason we miss CompUSA was [...]

Not sure when that happened, but it apparently has been lying to the motherboard, saying that it’s doing the fan thing (y’know, spinning and such) while not doing any “rotations per minute” at all. Funny enough, when I unplugged the one [...]

There’s an awful lot of history surrounding the UNIX operating system, and my hope is to distill it to [...]

Spam Patterns

Posted by craig  Published in A day in the life, Computers

It’s interesting seeing the different patterns of blog spam that I get between several of the blogs / podcast sites that I run. On Open Metalcast, it’s mostly the “Wow, this is informative” variety, mixed in with a bunch of cyrillic characters. On Lococast, it’s also the “Wow, this is informative”, no foreign language spam [...]

  • Have acquired my lead-filled jelly donut for the year. Don't think I could eat more than one a year. :)
  • Where we're going, we need no downbeat. Open Metalcast 41 shows you the way: http://ur1.ca/8aaix !openmetalcast
  • @greg They're all awesome until you make a claim. Then they'll bury your honey-covered ass in a fire-ant hill.
  • Neat idea. Loved using it during PyOhio. What really rocked though was the after-conference conversation. Oh well.
  • Interesting to note that SACD and DVD Audio have heightened copy protection schemes, and no market penetration to speak of.
