This will start to contain all of my noises and ruminations about hacking, hardware projects, gadgets and the art of programming.

Some thoughts on smartphones 2008-04-24 10:47AM
I'm kinda happy about how the market's being shaken up for once. I had regarded the whole PDA / Smartphone market with a certain amount of distaste and disinterest for quite some time. My old Viewsonic PDA died and I found I just wasn't using it for anything useful.. and then I ended up getting the Motorola Q because at least it had a decent web browser and keyboard so that I could text people instead of having to deal with my basic fear of telephones.
Some notes on developing for Windows Mobile 2008-04-20 01:31PM
How I replicate a now-commercial work-around for a fairly fundamental hole in Microsoft Windows Mobile functionality.
iPhone SDK vs. GPL (via) 2008-04-16 12:48PM
My rant: One can write all the GPL'd open-source whatever software that will do all kinds of rotten things to a Microsoft Windows Mobile 6 device that Microsoft doesn't intend for you to be able to do. But you can't do that with an iPhone.
KDE still worse than Windows, FLV's at 11. 2008-04-12 04:32PM
Why I invariably end up using a fairly bare X environment and never KDE or GNOME.
Maildir... the one true mail format (more or less) 2008-04-09 11:29AM
When I was using an mbox-based mail system, every so often I would have a mail corruption bug where "something" would go wrong. My Outlook email box has gone funky in the past and not all of the data is stored in an especially well documented place either.
