I started a little issue tracking project this week called bugz or bgz, I haven’t decided, and pushed it to http://github.com/mtvee/bgz. Why? Well, basically I have people I am working with that insist on keeping track of code issues using spreadsheets and email. I can’t do anything to convince them otherwise so I need to [...]
Tagged bugz, python, vcsSee what sinking in the muck that is the web development world and php does to me? Somewhere along the line, I missed the fact that Qt was scooped up by Nokia and they promptly made it LGPL. Unbelievable! I am so happy I could free some pointers! Though KDE lost me around version 2 [...]
Tagged qt4Couple of annoying things I had to go lookup again so I figured I would put them here for next time. $> git push warning: you did not specify a refspec… blah blah blah fix with $> git config push.default matching and this gem… $> git pull You asked me to pull without telling me [...]

Tagged ubuntuI got a bit of an education on netbooks today. It was bound to happen, sooner or later. Apple has really been getting to me lately, getting me down. So I first want to be able to go away without dragging that brick of a MacBook around with me, and even though it’s the latest [...]
Tagged hardwareSo I guess this is first post for the new domain. Actually, the domain wasn’t that new. I had it over at MediaTemple for a bit but what I didn’t realize when I signed up was they use Plesk for management. Dreamhost has totally spoiled me with their admin console. Plesk was like going back [...]
I finally have been able to spend some time with newLisp. It’s a lot of fun and I have a feeling I’ll be keeping it in the arsenal. Besides messing around with the obvious web/cgi stuff with it, I wrote a scraper and ported an implementation of the ARC4 encryption scheme. (define (crypt data key) [...]
