Confessions of a Technology Junkie. Virgin America vs. JetBlue. On Friday, February 1st my wife and I had the experience on traveling via Virgin America. They just recently started providing domestic service and tout such amenities on the plane as mood lighting, power at every seat and an interactive seat-back entertainment system. AFAIK, this is the highest level of technology implemented in coach class at-seat amenities to date. I have also flown JetBlue. And JetBlue is on DirecTV. If we consider that ...

Confessions of a Technology Junkie. May 18th, 2009. So, if you haven’t heard of Wolfram Alpha. I urge you to check it out. It’s certainly something new in the internet world that deserves attention. Wolfram Research built the Wolfram Alpha search engine. Yes, these are the same people that brought you Mathematica. Therefore, it doesn’t come as a surprise that when I ask Wolfram Alpha about the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow, I received the following result:. Will not be published) (required).

Confessions of a Technology Junkie. Why I use Smarty: PHP is an ugly templating language. There’s a debate going on here. 8216;s usefulness as a developer tool. It was sparked (again) by the launch (or at least newly noticed) nosmarty.net. Program and reading a tutorial. It was countered by Paul M. Jones. In my opinion (note the small o ) there *is* no right manner in which to use Smarty. It is the solution to a mis-stated problem. Oh, I already have! For templating) and I still prefer Smarty.

Confessions of a Technology Junkie. October 19th, 2008. While driving home the other day, I saw a few homes in my neighborhood that proudly advertise “Yes on 8”. If you don’t know, Proposition 8 is a California initiative to remove the state supreme court upheld right for same sex marriage.

Confessions of a Technology Junkie. It’s Not Magic (Anymore). May 4th, 2010. I wholeheartedly agree with John Biggs’ blog post regarding Apple’s use of “magical” as a way of describing their products. The iPad isn’t magic. It’s a big iPhone. There is no brand new technology in the iPad that we haven’t seen before. Of course, according to Clarke’s three laws of prediction. Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic. Just because an advanced technology is. Follow me on Twitter.

Confessions of a Technology Junkie. November 8th, 2008. Are a way to include other packages in your code that are maintained somewhere else. For example, if I was developing an application that needed to send out mail, I could use SwiftMailer. And define that as an external for my project. When I run ”svn up” it will grab files from the SwiftMailer project and copy them locally. (How to define externals is beyond the scope of this post. RTFM! After browsing around the net for a bit, I found this. What...
