At 36, I didn #39;t think I was old enough to be an old school programmer, but that computer world article only lists things I have done (er, other than the punch cards). I guess starting to program in school, when PC #39;s were things like TRS 80 #39;s leads to having done some stuff :) the Slashdot article has a few extra gems no wonder 'programmers' have a bad reputation. 2009-04-30T08:05:56Z SvenDowideit 1 updated major http://www.home.org.au/bin/rdiff/Blog/BlogEntry2009x04x30x00x59 http://www.home.org.au/bin/rdiff/Blog/BlogEntry2009x04x30x00x59 http://www.home.org.au/bin/view/Blog/BlogEntry2009x04x16x01x10?t=2009-04-16T08:13:49Z Headline: Million dollar Thinkpad?

This Wiki is now a test system so I can continue to help make foswiki a strong release. I recon the funnest thing I added to foswiki in the last week, is a more advanced WebSearchAdvanced topic not only can you try out query or regex searches, but it will also display the SEARCH command you need to embed that result into any topic you want. 2008-12-15T09:20:51Z SvenDowideit 1 updated major http://www.home.org.au/bin/rdiff/Blog/BlogEntry2008x12x15x01x12 http://www.home.org.au/bin/rdiff/Blog/BlogEntry2008x12x15x01x12 http://www.home.org.au/bin/view/Blog/BlogEntry2008x10x21x01x45?t=2008-10-21T09:08:17Z Headline: upgrading Home.org.au I've upgraded home.org.au to TWiki's trunk (in preparation for fastcgi), and updated to the latest incarnation of .MoveableTypeSkin .WidgetsSkin. .WidgetsSkin not only uses the latest incarnation of Moveable Type's HTML and CSS (and because they are now GPL open source, contains their themes, but begins to add more userfriendly Widget style mini TWikiApps for use in the sidebars. Hopefully there won't be too many glitches along the way. 2008-10-21T09:08:17Z SvenDowideit 1 updated major http://www.home.org.au/bin/rdiff/Blog/BlogEntry2008x10x21x01x45 http://www.home.org.au/bin/rdiff/Blog/BlogEntry2008x10x21x01x45 http://www.home.org.au/bin/view/Blog/BlogEntry2008x10x12x17x45?t=2008-10-13T00:51:48Z Headline: Day One of driving 120 hours of log book driving is a very long time when you don't use a car. Sunday was the beginning 1.5 hours done, 118.5 to go. wishful thinking says we could do this in 3 months reality? not so much :) 2008-10-13T00:51:48Z SvenDowideit 1 updated major http://www.home.org.au/bin/rdiff/Blog/BlogEntry2008x10x12x17x45 http://www.home.org.au/bin/rdiff/Blog/BlogEntry2008x10x12x17x45 http://www.home.org.au/bin/view/Blog/BlogEntry2008x10x04x01x31?t=2008-10-04T08:38:46Z Headline: easy MTB trails in Northern Sydney After spending so much time in the shadows of the Uetliberg and Zuriberg, I've been missing being able to go for a quick easy offroad mountain bike ride. From Lane Cove, I've finally realised there's plenty around me today for example, I rode to the EasternArterial road entry of the Two Creeks Track which starts off as a fire trail, then changes into a nice easy, low traffic walking track prefect for the beginner MTB rider. It seems to cope well with the wet day we had today too buckets of fun from there to the Roseville bridge, and then an easy ride home. see a nice map by the Ku ring gai Council 2008-10-04T08:38:46Z SvenDowideit 1 updated major http://www.home.org.au/bin/rdiff/Blog/BlogEntry2008x10x04x01x31 http://www.home.org.au/bin/rdiff/Blog/BlogEntry2008x10x04x01x31 http://www.home.org.au/bin/view/Blog/BlogEntry2008x09x13x01x45?t=2008-09-13T12:26:19Z Headline: Pasta night I love how 100g of flour and one egg can make the most wonderful pasta. Its such a simple thing to mix up before you make the sauce, then while its cooking, roll it out cut (ok, i've got a pasta maker ) and boil. loverly :) 2008-09-13T12:26:19Z SvenDowideit 2 updated major http://www.home.org.au/bin/rdiff/Blog/BlogEntry2008x09x13x01x45 http://www.home.org.au/bin/rdiff/Blog/BlogEntry2008x09x13x01x45 http://www.home.org.au/bin/view/Blog/BlogEntry2008x08x14x22x13?t=2008-08-15T05:17:50Z Headline: Bemused. I just rode my bike to the RTA, and got myself a Learner's booklet. Its an odd feeling, knowing nothing about the process, since the last time my friends looked at that sort of thing was over 15 years ago! Combine that with going to the printers to get my first set of Business cards made... Australian renewable paper please :) and I get a very interesting day. 2008-08-15T05:17:50Z SvenDowideit 1 updated major http://www.home.org.au/bin/rdiff/Blog/BlogEntry2008x08x14x22x13 http://www.home.org.au/bin/rdiff/Blog/BlogEntry2008x08x14x22x13
