Guy's Soapbox: March 2011
http://guidonet.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Because everyone needs to know what I think. Monday, March 21, 2011. Using git for revision control. As a hardware engineer, I spent most of my career designing chips using CVS for version control. It was free, simple, and workarounds for its more obvious warts were well-understood. It left me with a few side-effects, such as a pathological fear of branching, but was otherwise OK. It seems that this is now recommended practice for small teams. Git init –bare –shared. Chown -R nobody.group proj name.

Because everyone needs to know what I think. Monday, October 31, 2011. A steady stream of monsters and princesses are ringing my doorbell tonight. One little girl came up with her sister still in mom's arms. I put some candy in her bag and then some in her sisters', and she looked at her bag, then me, and said "Yum yum". I'm slow but I can take a hint. I gave her more candy and she walked away happy. Thursday, October 13, 2011. Tuesday, October 11, 2011. Living at the Airport. Joahnna and Luc both have t...

Guy's Soapbox: April 2011
http://guidonet.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Because everyone needs to know what I think. Friday, April 22, 2011. Today I turned 27, at least if you count in hexadecimal. The numbers don't seem that big this way. I don't think I'll make it to FF unless medical science churns out some real miracles in the next few years. Sunday, April 17, 2011. Caesar found a new best friend - sacked out on the couch watching movies with Shana. Wednesday, April 13, 2011. Tuesday, April 12, 2011. Sample post from email. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Guy's Soapbox: Driving in Rome
http://guidonet.blogspot.com/2011/10/driving-in-rome.html
Because everyone needs to know what I think. Thursday, October 06, 2011. JR and I rented scooters last night and took a quick moto tour of Rome, which also gave me an opportunity to experience Roman traffic fifs-hand. Thanks to prior experience on a race track it wasn't too hard to get used to, but it bears little resemblance to driving in the US or Australia. I gave the scooter back at the end of the night unharmed, and with no perceptual gas usage. Fun trip! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Guy's Soapbox: Rialto Bridge
http://guidonet.blogspot.com/2011/10/rialto-bridge.html
Because everyone needs to know what I think. Thursday, October 13, 2011. This shot shows the main canal taken from the Rialto bridge. The main canal is the highway through the center of Venice, and carries most of the motor traffic which goes through the city. Smaller specialized delivery barges go through the side canals to drop off and pick up goods and supplies. We also met a number of Italian-speaking Filipinos, who seem to have a lock on the Venice hotel industry. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Guy's Soapbox: August 2009
http://guidonet.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Because everyone needs to know what I think. Monday, August 17, 2009. Microsoft just lost a trial. For an XML patent violation in Word by what appears to be a patent troll. The company, i4i, has no products, so is presumably uninterested in the usual patent cross-licensing deals that major corporations engage in. Since Microsoft is one of the worst abusers of the patent system, hopefully this gives them some incentive to work on patent reform. Hoping for too much? Friday, August 14, 2009. Afterwards we s...

Guy's Soapbox: At Home
http://guidonet.blogspot.com/2011/08/at-home.html
Because everyone needs to know what I think. Saturday, August 20, 2011. Just had a chat with Adam and helped him diagnose an electrical problem on his motorcycle. This is a new first for my phone-support checklist. While we were talking we joked about Luc having his own twitter feed. I realized it would go something like this:. 08:35 - Woke up, fed, pooped. Took nap afterwards. 10:02 - Woke up hungry. Looked for boob, didn't find it. Cried. 10:08 - Found boob. Yay! Yummy lunch and nap afterwards.
