July 3rd, 2009

Firefox 3.5 was released Tuesday. And you might have noticed this story from Slashdot.

Now, the issue has been explained in true Internet fashion (via my friend Sam):

SELF, day 0

June 13th, 2009

Too distracted to create cohesive paragraphs, so I’ll make randomish statements.

Landing in ATL was rough. Seriously—the pilot almost made me sick. But that’s Delta Connection for ya.

freedeb is an awesome person.

Going to Rockhopper’s after we got there was brilliant, whoever set that up.

Dave Yates: sorry about your steak. ;)

SELF, day -1

June 12th, 2009

I’m on a plane tomorrow, which means one thing: procrastinating packing and watching Airplane!

In other news, I’ll be at SELF. :)

Edit: I had a haircut. Don’t let me scare the crap out of you because of it. Thanks, The Management

SELF-reliance

May 28th, 2009

So I’m all signed up and ready to go down to SELF. Excitement abound!

At SELF I will be unveiling my short hair to the free software world, and hopefully have the first draft(ish) of the new brand book done too.

Also the ticket from Wichita was really holy-crap-I-could-have-bought-it-myself cheap. That helped too. Yay, recession!

Hello, summer

May 14th, 2009

Today’s end of the AP Language and Composition exam and my Calc I final mark the end of the stress of my junior year in high school. As such, I’ll finally be getting shit done again.

I have a list of things I need to do this summer online. Please suggest other things that I may have forgotten, lost track of, or never heard of.

At this point don’t hesitate to ask me to do anything — I might end up just putting it on the to-do list, or I might just do it immediately.

Here’s a pretty solid interview with Ricky Zhou on “How Software is Built”, which has interviewed the likes of Mike Shaver (VP of Engineering at Mozilla) and Dries Buytaert (guy who made the Drupal CMS). Go read it.
