  • Looking to get Iron* and the DLR into RedHat

    I sent an email to the Fedora Legal list asking whether they will accept software released under the MS-PL license. My friend and former colleague, Brett Lentz mentioned that he was concerned that the Fedora folks might not accept software released under the MS-PL. So I asked. I also bcc’d a certain troll on said…

  • we are all going to be eaten by patent trolls

    Farm animal noises, I tell you.

  • My daily contribution to the M$ Shills?

    I put the Novell folks who made xbuild work with IronRuby in contact with the M$ folks who write IronRuby. Another contribution from M$ into the growing pit of blasphemy which is Open Source. (it’s a joke. you’re supposed to laugh.)

  • The Cretins

    My brother’s motorcycle club, The Cretins, recently had an article published about them in the Seattle PI. They even quoted him. I didn’t realize he was the president of the club. The rumor goes that he missed a meeting, and wasn’t there to defend himself.

  • 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…

  • Public Mockage of Our Inept Commander in Chief

    I wrote this in early December 2006 when I heard that dorkball was considering stretching our military to the breaking point by deploying more of our troops to do his nasty bidding. I thought I’d give him some time to re-consider before publishing it, however. He’s had enough time now. I vote for impeachment if…

  • RAIDoD

    Redundant Array of Inexpensive Departments of Defense Ha.

  • Oh noes! Guitar Hero is trying to get me!

    So. One of my policies has been “don’t knock it ’till you’ve tried it.” I made an exception to this rule and privately knocked Guitar Hero. I want to apologize now for this misdeed. Maybe if I apologize, the ads for it will stop. Oh, please. Also, someone play it with me, so I can…

  • gtkglarea on win32

    After a long, long wait, GtkGLArea is now running on win32. I’ve put up a temporary package here until I merge the changes into cvs and put out an official package that plays nicely with the rest of the gtk+ platform. The next step, of course is GtkGLArea#, the C# wrapper around this library. And…
