The codebreakers.

On the newsstand.
Once again you can find examples of my half-baked authorial hackery in the Red Hat Magazine. I reported on the goings on at the Red Hat Summit in Nashville, mostly from a Fedora perspective. Hope you enjoy it! I’m leaving this off the FedoraPeople feed since, y’know, ego isn’t everything.
It just got a little easier out here for a pimp.
Especially if said pimp’s modus operandi includes copious amounts of taffy. Yes, I got my permanent crown put in today, and boy is it shiny!. Thankfully it’s a back molar, so it won’t show much, but I’m using my new mouth bling as an excuse to smack Eleya on the …
When is a blog not a blog?
For instance, when it doesn’t allow feedback as advertised, I suppose. Sorry about the errors many of you have been experiencing while trying to leave me comments and such. I believe my server at home has experienced a cardiac arrest (a/k/a disk crash). A fellow Fedora guy confirmed my suspicion …
Great videos happen.
Well, not by themselves. It takes the work of people like the amazing (and dedicated!) Tim Kiernan to make them happen. Tim (and, I believe, a couple additional camerapeople-slash-crew) put together an energizing, funny, and surprisingly moving video which played at the end of the closing keynote. This guy obviously …
Hungover Blogging 102.
(Or, the Sequel No One Wanted Anyone Else to Make.) A major difference between this semester’s class and last semester’s class is that now the red squigglies take on a life of their own. Not only do we notice them, they pulse, swirl, and do little June Taylor dance routines …
Booby prize.
In case there was a doubt, here’s further evidence of the big loser I am: This morning I wake up to a server 600 miles away at home that suddenly won’t let me SSH in. The web server is — obviously — still up. (Of course I don’t auto-update — …
Tornado hits Nashville!
OK, not really. But maybe a tornado of information about the state and future of a lot of Red Hat initiatives, including Fedora. Max has already blogged about the afternoon’s Fedora BoF, after which Chris Blizzard gave a great presentation about OLPC. It was fascinating to hear about the myriad …
Summit Day 0.
We had a wonderful and stress-free drive from Knoxville today, but before we got on I-40, we took a side trip to Oak Ridge and the Children’s Museum, which is a converted elementary school chock full of hands-on exhibits and activities for young people. The kids had fun learning about …
Hey Josh — holy deja vu Batman, I just got one of these RAZR V3 phones too! They are super-sweet. I already put a picture of my daughter in the wallpaper and made it so when my wife calls me, it plays the “Ironside” music that was in Kill Bill …
