love and infatuation

Jess' talk of the replacement of passion and Bonnie's mention of infatuation being only for younger couples has brought a few thoughts to my mind.
I think we all crave to be craved. We all want someone to want us. We all want to be infatuated. And I don't think that is something that disappears with [...]

dreamhost

I'm about to sign up for a DreamHost account with the intent of transferring my blog and all of my domains to it. If there is any reason you believe I shouldn't, please speak now or forever hold your peace.

Ugh.

Apparently the upgrade to MT 2.61 isn't the only thing that is causing my "Out of Memory" errors. Because I'm still getting them every now and then when using 2.51. This leads me to believe that the reason behind this is my recent import of over 1500 entries from LiveJournal. This means the MovableType is [...]

easier to use or more flexible?

I've run into another stumbling block in my coding of inklog, and I'm not exactly sure how to proceed. I know HOW to code the problem fifty different ways, I just don't know which way is best. And it is a very important design choice, as the rest of the application will use the same [...]

importing entries

I'm about to do an import of a bunch of archived weblog entries. If the site is slow for a while, that's why.

Apparently, SPACE.COM, a "web site that offers rich and compelling content, included space business news, information, education, and entertainment", produced by "the premier multimedia company dedicated to space, science and technology", believes that the Columbia Tragedy was planned by NASA. Furthermore, they state that the Starfire Optical Range is actually a factory that produces shoes [...]

I vowed to myself that I wouldn't get excited the next time I saw a PHP project with some promise. However, I jumped a little when I saw Eocene: a MVC framework for PHP. Just like the others, it seems to be well written and built with good intentions, however, it shares the same three [...]

You know it'll be a good day when you get into work and, before you can even sit down at your computer, your boss asks you to hack the password for a user account on a remote system.
It only took me about 15 minutes thanks to WS_FTP's horrible concept of security. And I did it [...]
