Geek at Large: Review: Gray Hat Python
http://geekatlarge.blogspot.com/2009/06/review-gray-hat-python.html
A blog mostly about running, ruby, photography, books, and any other things that captured my interest. Tuesday, June 23, 2009. Review: Gray Hat Python. 216 pages, a title of 'Gray Hat Python' and a table of contents with subjects such as 'design and program your own debugger', 'learn how to fuzz windows drivers', 'create powerful fuzzers from scratch', DLL injection, hooking, malware analysis. My first impression was that it must be really niche, hardcore and not for me. First impressions are often wrong.

http://geekatlarge.blogspot.com/2009/06/review-learn-to-program-2nd-edition.html
A blog mostly about running, ruby, photography, books, and any other things that captured my interest. Monday, June 1, 2009. Review: Learn to program 2nd edition. As I'm taking a brake from running to prevent shin injuries. So I had time to finish reading my latest book, 'Learn to program 2nd edition'. Well I've finished it and thought I'd share my feelings about it in a review, so here it is:. The book contains fun exercises such as the 'angry boss' or 'deaf grandma' exercises. Since the second edition ...

Christmas: relief, salvation and commercialism. Christmas eve has finally arrived! To some, Christmas brings emotions of relief or salvation. To others, it's just one of those days filled with obligatory social calls and commercialism. Unfortunately, the better must sometimes give way to the good. But, if you are interested in learning some GUI programming, there is good news for you! The 3rd batch of the shoes programming course at Rubylearning. Unfortunately, no shop in .nl sells the Linux version&...

waves, code and ninja's: Ten Steps in Shoes: step 2, Stack & Flow
http://waveninja.blogspot.com/2009/01/ten-steps-in-shoes-step-2-stack-flow.html
Ten Steps in Shoes: step 2, Stack and Flow. Woow, I've been getting quite a lot of feedback on my last post. Thanks for the messages, I really appreciate it! If you read my previous post, you might have noticed a lack of layout structure in one of the examples. Some of the text was right behind the other, or even overlapped, and it all just looked like a big unsorted pile. This might be fine for dirty clothes or dishes, but our app aint dirty!

Geek at Large: No Time to Say Hello-Goodbye
http://geekatlarge.blogspot.com/2009/06/no-time-to-say-hello-goodbye.html
A blog mostly about running, ruby, photography, books, and any other things that captured my interest. Monday, June 15, 2009. No Time to Say Hello-Goodbye. I woke up today at six, went on a run and somehow don't even have time for a proper blogpost. Today's run was hard but good. At the end of the training I was sweating all over the place, not that usual sweat but that greasy hard-work sweat. I'm going down the rabbit hole. Count of Monte Christo. June 16, 2009 at 10:52 PM.

waves, code and ninja's: Human 2.0 or Paranoid Android?
http://waveninja.blogspot.com/2009/02/human-20-or-paranoid-android.html
Human 2.0 or Paranoid Android? Since my childhood I have been warned about them. Someday will come when they will realize their superiority over us simple humans, take over the world and take their place as technological overlords. You know what I'm talking about: terminators, genius evil androids, transformers, technically enhanced humans, depressed androids and robots with identity issues. All superior due to their technical prowess. We have evolved by making and using new tools to manipulate our envir...

GUI toolkit extravaganza part III: WxRuby. In the previous part of the GUI toolkit extravaganza we looked at the FXRuby toolkit. This time we will spend some time to look at the Yin of FXRuby's Yang, the wxRuby toolkit. There seems to be quite a decent ammount of documentation for wxruby2. The project website. Provides the complete API reference. As far as I'm aware there are no books about wxruby2, nor have I seen it featured in a book. The project's website hosts two mailinglists. Wx: App.run do. There...

GUI toolkit extravaganza part IV: Shoes. Happy new year and all that. Yes I know, I haven't posted on my blog for ages. There's a perfectly good reason for that you know, see it was fricking freezing over here and my blog froze as well. Now the thaw has set in, time to get back at the GUI toolkit extravaganza. You do remember this GUI toolkit journey we started way back in 2008 right? Well ok I guess I can't blame you, after all it has been a while and there probably were some parties. Online shoes docum...

GUI toolkit extravaganza wrap-up. Folks, I have decided to conclude the GUI toolkit extravaganza. There were two more toolkits to follow, monkeybars and qtruby. But alas, I am not going to check those out any time soon. I just don't feel very curious about these toolkits anymore and want to do some more exploring of Shoes. But I'll take those two toolkits along in the following overview. The big question is off course, which one is the best? If you need to do some qt stuff here's some info:. My personal ...

Geek at Large: Muddy horsetracks
http://geekatlarge.blogspot.com/2009/06/muddy-horsetracks.html
A blog mostly about running, ruby, photography, books, and any other things that captured my interest. Saturday, June 13, 2009. I'm not really a shorts man but it was definately better then the usual jogging pants I wear. It has a small pocket on the lower back for keys or some change. Quite nice since that part does not move as much while running and I will not be bothered by moving coins or keys. In addition I put on my new Griffin Aerosport Armband. Anyway, here are yesterday's stats:. No, I still ran...
