A new frontier?
This seems like an opportune time to point out that free and open source software is a great way to escape persecution at the behest of megalomaniacal corporations from another country.
Status report.
Taking a hint from Seth, I thought I should talk about things I worked on this weekend: New self-documenting example tutorial, including templates that a new writer can simply copy to start their own document Upgrades to the Documentation Guide, which we are going to continue slicing and dicing over …
And so it ends.
…At least for some of us who have to make it back to work in the morning. (I just returned home after a quick jump from Boston to Richmond.) I was able to fit a little docs work in this morning, but the majority of my day was spent behind …
Curse you, FUDPub!
Jesse’s not the only person paying today for last night’s festivities. But after a half a chicken curry plate, one boba tea, and a liter of water, I’m feeling a little more human. Reminder to self: Always — no, never try to keep up with Red Hat sales engineers when …

Man on a mission.

Each of us has a family history of diabetes and yet, inexplicably, we’ve both managed to avoid facing the awful truth that we’re killing …
Free as in speech.
Thanks, Greg, for once again proving the point that free software is really about the freedom and not the cost. What’s the deal with the paper-thin FUD saying, “hardware vendors don’t certify source RPMs”? Of course they do! Source is tied one-to-one to the binary RPMs the hardware vendors certify; …
A little excitement.
Today was weirdly bifurcated between hacking and sightseeing. Morning and late night I spent working on Luke Macken’s irssi-notify script, which Thorsten wrote about earlier today. At Luke’s suggestion, I put a quick project page up at Google Code. Hopefully folks will feel free to make (reasonable) suggestions for improvements. …
