Something’s afoot with Apple

Thursday, May 14th, 2009

The Apple developer sites for both “Web Apps” and “Safari” are not responding at all. Ken’s Paranoid Prediction: Apple’s pulling back on the stunningly cool and advanced CSS functionality (transforms and animations) now available in Safari Mobile and iPhone native WebView in favor of the same functionality in native iPhone programming. WWDC09 is coming up [...]

“Instant web site?”

Saturday, August 23rd, 2008

In the midst of bringing the first public revision of flyGarmin to a close at work, a friend emailed me and asked if I could whip up an “instant web site” as his new startup company was about to get national attention. I had a week. So I worked a normal busy day every day that [...]

I’ve turned off the Koine Greek podcast

Wednesday, July 18th, 2007

The traffic was just burying my server. Heh heh. No, I just realized that the podcasting plugin I was using was tagging everything on the site as though it was a podcast. But really, I didn’t even really record Intermediate Greek since it just wasn’t a lecture-style class. Most of what would have been recorded would [...]

RedeemerBaptist.org gets a facelift

Saturday, May 12th, 2007

And a whole lot more. :) http://www.redeemerbaptist.org I’ve finally switched on a group of changes I’ve been thinking about and working on for a long time. We had a site up, but it was basically straight WordPress, which just didn’t work well for what we were looking for. Well, it’s still WordPress, but with a much more customized [...]

Free Koine Greek Vocabulary Help

Monday, April 23rd, 2007

Inspired by the very cool work at memorizable.com, I’ve started to put together a vocabulary tool using their freely available, incredibly portable code. It’s just started, and I’m trying to find a source for the vocabulary words in order of frequency of occurrence, but at least you can give it a little run and see [...]

PhpMyAdmin config error… AUGH!

Wednesday, September 20th, 2006

Imagine a fresh install of MySQL, (entropy.ch) PHP, and phpMyAdmin which didn’t work. MySQL is running in Terminal just fine. PHP is cranking along nicely. But phpMyAdmin steadfastly refused to run: Probably reason of this is that you did not create configuration file. You might want to use setup script to create one. [...]

Zombie web site

Thursday, August 24th, 2006

I thought I killed it. Long ago. But as I was doing a vanity search, I found a live copy of my old site running. Hmph. Dawn of the Website. thud… thud… thud… THUD… THUD… GRRRRRRRR!

He did it

Friday, July 14th, 2006

He started with one red paperclip, and traded up to a house. Great story.

How much is my blog worth?

Sunday, July 9th, 2006

According to this it’s worth $1,693.62. Isn’t that funny. I remember checking about three months ago and it was worth $0.00. So at this rate, I’ll be worth millions soon. It must be the rapier wit, piercing political insights, deep philosophical challenges, and world-moving technology assessments. Or a broken algorithm.

LibraryThing

Wednesday, June 28th, 2006

I know my readers include both those who will yawn at this as old news, and those who’ve never heard of such a thing, but in the spirit of flickr.com, del.icio.us and similar “social” web offerings, I went ahead and started to set up a LibraryThing account. Pretty neat stuff. You’re able to have a very [...]
