Only this, and nothing more. Irregular eccentic eclecticisms, direct from my fingers. Friday, December 31, 2004. Would you like some frost with that? One of the reasons I love living in Seattle is the weather. It is not that I love rain. It is that I love not. Melting in the summer and not. Freezing n the winter. I move to Seattle from Rochester, NY (where I attended the University of Rochester. Why that random rant? Seattle averages 36" of rain annually. According to EssentialBigApple.Com. To much data ...

Foo &e; /foo. You might argue that there is no inherent risk since your service probably doesn't send that data back to the client, but the mere fact that it tricked your. Web service into loading data to which the client itself did not have access, is a security vulnerability. Docasync = false;. The more versatile the t...

Only this, and nothing more. Irregular eccentic eclecticisms, direct from my fingers. Monday, February 07, 2005. Think'n aloud about RDF. Devoted to the idea. Although some people. Have commented that a structural editor made a number of common tasks overly complicated, I’ve always found the idea appealing. As I was playing with the idea in my head, it occurred to me that what I was designing in my head, had a lot in common with Haystack. A long while back, I was ranting to Dare. About how I didn't like ...

Only this, and nothing more. Irregular eccentic eclecticisms, direct from my fingers. Wednesday, November 24, 2004. It seems that lot of people are starting to move their CORBA/DCOM/RPC/RMI/etc designs to us SOAP instead. To me, that seems to miss the point.

Sending larger, potentially irregular or semi-structured units of data. It is funny what y...

Only this, and nothing more. Irregular eccentic eclecticisms, direct from my fingers. Monday, August 01, 2005. So when is it a good idea to use XML for your data? The easy answer is that you should use XML when it is likely to be easier (in the long run) than creating your own parser. Using XML carries some cost. XML is verbose, and parsing is guaranteed to be slower than a custom parser. Why is XML such the rage then? Because it would have taken more lines of code to read/write XML, than to just use tex...

Liam Quin posted a comment about my 'where xml goes astray' rant:. I don't buy your argument at all that. 1] people put garbage in their databases. 2] XML is to blame for not accepting garbage in element content. An interesting example where the presumption that characters are about representing text is violated can easily be found in standard C libraries: strcspn()....

Only this, and nothing more. Irregular eccentic eclecticisms, direct from my fingers. Thursday, July 14, 2005. Someone commented on my previous post with a link to We're not afraid. This is exactly the kind of things that inspires me. Events like the recent attacks should be used to further bind our multicultural communities. I had heard on NPR of some attacks on Mosques.
