  • Well, that was an eventful day!

    *whew* I did a bunch of things yesterday. We took our kindergärtner to her first Friday at her new school (and were about 10 minutes tardy. oops). We then took our toddler to a nearby playground with swings and slides and let her expend some energy. After she had been sufficiently exercised, we walked back…

  • A (round-about) story about Jeffry P. Bezos

    The following is what i wrote on “43people.com” about the boss. I thought it was worth keeping in my own archives, since it’s actually a story about my life as it pertains to Mr. Bezos. Back a few years ago, I was taking some classes down in Edmonds. The one I’m thinking of in particular…

  • MySQL Meetup 2006/05/01

    Hannah, Scarlet and I attended the Seattle Meetup, since we heard Arjen was planning on being in town. We went to the normal location, but the owner told me they were closed due to their entire staff being involved in the civil rights march. We arrived to a table full of the regulars. Breadsticks, pizza,…

  • New pre-release of the maxdb<->mysql bi-directional synchronization manager code

    Let me stress that this code is not complete and has not been tested. This is probably not something you want to get involved in. Move along. Thank you. Bye bye. Now that I am writing to an empty house…. I’ve pushed a new version of the synchronization manager code to my subversion repository. It…

  • A quick over-view of RDBMSs’ general place in the world, and ours in particular

    [1][2][3] RDBMSs (or for clarity, Databases) are a basic element of any computer-based appliance in the same way as are an Operating System, Web Server and software development platform.
