A month late, sure, but better late than never…
Some of you remember that I joined the 9Rules network a while ago. At the beginning of October, 9Rules members got an e-mail advertising a new membership agreement.
After talking it out in Clubhouse, we made participating either in the private member area or my.9rules [...]
Last week, I finally went live with a new design that I’ve been toying with for this blog. It sort of grew organically out of a few failures that I’d played with on and off for the last few months. After looking at a lot of available themes, I decided to more or [...]
5 Nov. 2007 • I’ve formatted this code as a plugin, too. Go to the project page.
Blockquotes, by definition, can and should in most cases have a title attribute and, if possible, a cite attribute. The former is the actually name of the quote’s source. The latter is the URI to the [...]
I’m two weeks late, but for those of you with K2-derived themes, the official “stable” released was finally updated from the ancient r167 to a “v0.9″, whatever that means in relation to the old.
I dumped K2 a while ago, because I grew displeased with the number of non-kosher modifications it made (read: making custom database [...]
Dictionary.com has given itself an upgrade after many long years of suffering from a layout that looked like it was designed by somebody’s retarded child.
Of course, I still prefer TheFreeDictionary, which is slightly less semantic but filled with Javascript goodness. Still, credit goes to Dictionary.com for finally “getting it” about web standards. Mmmmm, [...]
A long time ago, I created a blog template based on the Fedora Core website. Hearing recently that that site is on its way out, I revisited that templat and found myself really drawn to it.
It still needs a lot of work, but I’ve been hacking away at the code all day, cleaning up [...]
A Retrospective on Cleveland qua Æsthetic
Cleveland is a funny place. Like Wisconsin, it’s significantly greener than Illinois, and I find myself surprisingly aflush at the sight of all the verdure, but Cleveland is like a rusted, hulking monolith overgrown by jungle. The juxtaposition is frightening: while lost, we drove along so many [...]
The Web 2.0 superstar of the last year and a half has to be Digg, the user-moderated technology portal, full of the latest tech stories. It’s even eclipsed Slashdot in terms of page hits, although I still think that Slashdot’s content is significantly better.
It’s no surprise, then, that AOL, which owns Netscape, is launching [...]
Cliff doesn’t like LAMP. While LAMP has its drawbacks, of course, I think Cliff is talking out of his ass.
MySQL and PHP, on the other hand, really raise my ire. Both of them have two major problems:
Bug ridden (by this I am including both misfeatures as well as actual bugs).
They encourage bad habits.
All programs [...]
