• You've Stayed Up Too Late When

    Posted on September 10, 2006

    You know you’ve acidentally let your bedtime slip too close to sunrise when you’re flipping through the onscreen TV guide and MTV actually lists “Music Videos” as currently showing. No need to look at the time, when a thing like that happens you know that either the sun is about... [Read More]

  • Hilton Ninja

    Posted on September 6, 2006

    Paris Hilton has been named an honorary member of the CDC Ninja Strike Force. A very high honor indeed. No word yet on wether she’ll also get the ability to blow shit up with heat rays from her eyes, like the other Ninja Strike Force members are able to do.... [Read More]

    The full set of audio from the HOPE six conference is online now. The conf happened just before DEFCON and I hear it has some fantastic stuff that didn’t show up in Vegas. Download and share!

  • http_load for Request Replay

    Posted on August 23, 2006

    The presentation that Rasmus gave at OSCON this year seems to have kicked some ass. I missed the conf, but got a bunch of interesting info from the slides. In particular I hadn’t used http_load before. Part of what I’ve been doing at AdMob is taking a look at performance... [Read More]

  • Linux Lappy

    Posted on August 18, 2006

    It’s just about New Laptop Time. Not quite, but almost. Being a Linux only user it’s always an adventure trying to figure out what hardware to get. Hardware support has definitely gotten better under Linux, but figuring out what actually lives inside the system you’re thinking about picking up at... [Read More]

    This week (August 7th to 13th 2006) is the ZeroOne Arts Festival in San Jose. There was a great presentation at Future Salon by one of the ZeroOne staff members where he tossed out a dizzying number of art projects that blend in technology in tantalizing ways. And if the... [Read More]

  • A Diet of Monkey Chow

    Posted on June 6, 2006

    This is pure genius! I’m so disappointed I didn’t think of it first. A guy trying to live on a diet of pelletized monkey food. FANTASTIC! If it works and he doesn’t die I’m definitely doing it. If he does die… I give myself about a 50-50 chance of still... [Read More]

  • A Quarter of a Million Spam Messages

    Posted on June 5, 2006

    I’m at almost a quarter of a million spam messages (249,744 to be precise, by the time I post this it should be more than 250 thousand) caught by Akismet so far. I turned Akismet on in January of this year. That’s more than 50,000 spam messages a month. According... [Read More]

  • The Web 2.0 Cease and Desist and Self Healing Systems

    Posted on May 25, 2006

    I need to post a pointer to the story about CMP sending a conference a C&D; letter on behalf of O’Reilly. I’m sure Tim has nothing to do with it, and I’m sure it’ll go away without much fuss in the end, probably just being throwoff of the corporate machine... [Read More]

  • George Bush Jr More Evil Than Cthulhu

    Posted on April 21, 2006

    Wow, folks really hate this George Bush Jr. guy. You would think he roamed around in the streets killing puppies and kicking children or something. I check out the stats for all my Ning apps on a daily basis. Cause I’m vain, no sense in trying to justify it with... [Read More]
