Bashing my head in

I know, I know. I promised about the puns. I'm not even frustrated. Project du jour: version control with dreamhost one-click installs. When you update an installation using the Dreamhost control panel, Dreamhost moves your old files from directory to directory.old, and installs the update in directory. If ...

Almost forgot.

My first post about anything nuptualish, following my own nuptuals, was a rambling rant about unfeminists and patriarchy and why it is that there aren't more women at technology conferences. (you'd have to read between the lines for to catch that one) Our ...

Maybe you should read the book yourself.

I met someone just now, I think the conversation went "oh, you're getting married, you should totally read this book ..." to which I said "you are about to tell me about I do but I don't," to which he said "yes..." A few notes here. One, this is obviously an aging post. I already got married. Two, I recently had an encounter that has left me seething and so this stuff is on my mind.

Dig this DNS

However, I just went through some insanely overwrought process of nailing down our ownership of our domains (actually, dot org and dot net ...

I can has widgets?

It turns out that there is a great phenomenon of actual honest to god grown ups, like with 403b7 accounts and no type of "I'm just not going to pay for health insurance for now" who think it is fun to spell like tEen@gerZ. Some of them are people like me. The thing is, the whole LOLnptech project is a great illumination of why Blogger sux. Seriously. Click on the comments and you can't see the picture. Click on the picture and you get only the picture. No comments or nothing. Magically, if you know to click on the title you can see the graphic and the comments, but then if you want to add a comment ...
