As I mentioned here, I’m learning some Rust. I’m finding Programming Rust to be a nice guide, though I’m still in the early pages – I keep getting distracted by… , well, Rust. I read one thing and then go off and play with 3 other related things. I’m having so much fun and want […]
If you haven’t been to Gluecon, you should go. It’s a super techie conference in a stunning location. Warning, though, it’s higher than the mile high city, and you’ll seriously feel it when you are out for your morning run! Good stuff. Anyway, I keep wanting to link to my presentation but the way it’s […]
I’ve just upgraded to V2.0 and to verify my install (really just checking my eclipse config for IPF) wanted to do a quick run of the basic tutorial. The first part of it (before extending it to set up an HTTP endpoint) was fine but there is a documentation bug for the latter part of […]

Wow. His current work, called Running the Numbers: an American Self-Portrait, (not yet complete) is to produce […]
… obviously it isn’t yet. I’m recommitting to remembering this blog, today.
Earlier I posted on the existence of a blog that covers industry standards. I came to that site because I was trying to get a grasp of what was going on with ODF, my interest being more in the dynamics around the standard than in the standard itself. It’s been getting a lot of buzz, […]
… though I kind of wish I was. Traveling everywhere else though, all for work. I’m back and am finding a lot of time to actually work on stuff and will be posting again.
In my ZDNet Announcements of the day the headline that caught my eye (after their subject line of If Oracle can buy Open Source, why not Microsoft?) was DHS program tries to connect far-flung information, but at what privacy cost?In the iECM consortium I am working in, the US federal government is actively participating as […]
