American Express Statement Download Functionality
http://blog.iannelson.systems/american-express-statement-download-functionality
American Express Statement Download Functionality. Monday, 19th September 2011. I've just been trying to download all my old credit card statements from the American Express website. That's the kind of exciting life I lead. I had hoped that this would be a fairly straightforward task, but every step of the process seemed designed to frustrate and annoy me, leading me to pen this quick list of a number of suggestions for how the functionality could be improved. Well, I want them all. But there are no ...
I'm Back, and Trying a Ghost in the Cloud
http://blog.iannelson.systems/back-and-trying-a-ghost-in-the-cloud
I'm Back, and Trying a Ghost in the Cloud. Wednesday, 16th April 2014. Right then, let's give this blogging lark another shot, shall we? So, I reach the conclusion that I no longer have a requirement for a personal blog. Some of the better or more nostalgic posts may make eventually resurface elsewhere for posterity's sake, but I shouldn't hold your breath. On the other hand, I. To reflect this newly-focussed nature of this blog, I have removed all the non-tech posts and moved from my personal ianfnelson...

Friday Retrospective: My First Printer
http://blog.iannelson.systems/friday-retrospective-my-first-printer
Friday Retrospective: My First Printer. Friday, 25th April 2014. My first printer was a Star LC-20 nine pin dot matrix that I received as a Christmas present when I was 15 years old. That's the kind of nerdy teenager I was, folks. All yuletide long our home rang out with the deafening noise made by those pins rapidly and repeatedly punching through a flimsy ink-soaked ribbon. Oh, and a year or so later, I worked all summer long to save the 400 I needed to buy a 20Mb hard drive. Yes, twenty whole mega...
One Reason Why NCrunch Is Worth The Cost
http://blog.iannelson.systems/one-reason-why-ncrunch-is-worth-the-cost
One Reason Why NCrunch Is Worth The Cost. Tuesday, 22nd April 2014. I have been merrilly using NCrunch. An "automated concurrent testing tool for Visual Studio" - for almost three years now. I ponied up for a paid license when it made the transition from beta to RTM, and I recently shelled out again for an upgrade to version 2. Why do this when plenty of test runners are free, or bundled with software I already own such as ReSharper and Visual Studio itself? 12 Reasons Why I Love Unit Tests. Programs wri...

Ian's Music Musings
Sunday, November 17, 2013. A review of the Gypsyhook EP by Sonny Moore (Skrillex). Like a lot of other people, I learned about Skrillex when he started to gain serious popularity for his dubstep tracks. I've always been a big fan of electronic music in general (as anyone who's ever listened to my own output. That long, drawn-out introduction brings me to Gypsyhook. 8211; an EP Sonny released in 2009, and the subject of this review. 01 – Gypsyhook.

Ian Petras | Blog – A highly educated and experienced Digital Marketing Lead with a solid background and the technical ability to make a difference.
Because you never know when you need something to read. The media wants overnight successes (so they have someone to tear down). Ignore them. Ignore the early adopter critics who never have enough to play with. Ignore your investors who want proven tactics and predictable instant results. Listen instead to your real customers, to your vision, and make something for the long haul. Because that's how long it's going to take. - Seth Godin. Why negative feedback is better than you thought. What can I say?

2014年，接觸攝影接近第三個年頭，離開標準學校體系的第二年。 精力都花在這上面，不管是精神上，抑是身體，都一度頻臨崩潰。 因施工過度手腕受傷，無法舉起相機，因此購入了Ricoh The GR。 現在回頭發現，佈置攝影棚讓我感到滿足，營運企業讓我覺得成就。 在這樣鬱悶又重壓的日子裡，一有空閒便是拿著GR閒晃，拍照機會不再像是過去這麼多。 也因為拍照時間的減少，進而追求在短時間的Street Snap中，拍出自己所追求的照片。 在日日的焦頭爛額之下，轉眼，時序也邁入了三月。 看到新聞的第二天一早，直接進入立法院參與、紀錄。 但隨著時間的流逝，熱情的退卻，也越來越多人看清。 不管是官、是民、是商，太多的人利用這樣的衝突謀取利益。 利用欺騙、群眾、利用對國家社會的愛來謀財、追名。 永遠不要去崇拜、神格化任何人，讓自己能夠保持批判的權力。 似乎只有廢墟、街頭、和貓的這些一個人時光，能讓我鬆口氣。 GR在旅途中壞掉，焦急如焚，求助無門。 12300;還沒沒能曉得，就已經老了」. 在這期間，收到了兵役體檢單，再三考量之後決定讓攝影棚結束營運。 不過，這些都是虛名，不是嗎？ 訂閱： 文章 (Atom).
