Notes:

Current projects:

Designing my own data flow-based language. Very esoteric. Probably very useless too. But then, so are most languages. But hey, at least I have Other interests: MMIs, Graphics, world domination, Ballroom dancing, sound engineering, rock climbing.
Languages I know well: Perl, C, C++, PHP, M68K, VHDL, Java. Languages I know *marginally*: Python, x86 Assembler, Forth, etc. This is not a comprehensive list, but it's all I want to admit to. I mean, if I told people I knew VB I might be forced to work in a winmine. ;)

I'm writing a programming language. The spec is done, and now it's time to write an interpreter (or maybe even a compiler. but that's for when I'm *really* motivated).

Doing a web design contract for now. I need a real job. Bah.

Also, passphrases are considerably easier to remember over long periods of time. I still remembered the one for this site. It's impressive.

Oh, right, I have an account here. Still master, for no reason. Sigh.

Much has changed in my life, but you don't care. I see there's still a lot of pro-war bullshit in the diaries, so I'll probably avoid reading them for another few months.

I'd also forgotten how ugly the Advogato layout is. Yick.

I'll be moving on the 1st. I found out today. Ah, it's nice when some things fall into place. Too bad the rest of my life sucks.

Yah, there should be an apostrophe at the end of "users" in my article reply. Oopsies.

Spent a couple of hours today trying to figure out why apache mysteriously stopped after an upgrade. AFAICT, I needed to have the order of two statements switched in httpd.conf. Very confusing. The worst part was that it was completely silent when dying. Ah well, fixed now.

I have now learned to use apt_preferences to pin packages at certain releases. Now I need to code up a cron job to figure out when those are updated, so I can schedule a mass-upgrade session.

I pinned both apache and exim, since I've had problems with both in the recent past(both config file things!), and I'm trying to run a pseudo-production server here. Hmm, I should pin mailman too. [done]. Nothing else is as critical as those packages.

Update: there were(are?) still some problems with my apache configuration. I got images working again, and allowed IDS to be executed. Bah, I say. Does anybody know exactly WTF happened to make apache so unhappy with me? Did it suddenly start obeying some guidelines that it was ignoring before?

Breaking news! Microsoft invents free software!

Has anyone else noticed how a lot of the cool 'new' features of the winXP desktop are copied from Gnome/KDE/every other linux WM. Hmm, those evil linux hippies must have stolen them from the pre-pre-pre-alpha release of XP!
