Some disk in the US got filled up during Easter, so any email to me should be sent to firstname.lastname at gmail dot com Thanks. Update: Done, got it fixed. And started thinking: Couldn’t Gmail be my mail backend? Really? I’m putting it on the TODO list.

Thoughts about old age
Thoughts about old age from the work-floor: “My uncle is retired now, and does nothing but going to dinners, and hunting.” “I’ma be a amateur archaelogist in my riper years.” “Full beards.”
Kbh.dk – upcoming muni-YASN (not so YA, though)
More talk about other people’s work: (My amazing wife) Luisa’s doing launch work on Copenhagen municipality social network website/service KBH.dk. Sign up for their upcoming beta. It could get quite interesting. Their business model? Not “making money”. Providing a service to the community. The bottom section of the landing page translates to: “Kbh.dk opens in …

Io in iPhones?
Peeking in a recent Io checkin, this was in the IoPlayer/_Readme.txt: An IoPlayer is basically an executable that when launched: – opens a window with a GL view – looks in it’s launch directory for a main.io file and executes it if found or opens an error dialog if not. – glut input comes from …
Hackmeetup notes
Just came home from this week’s Hackmeetup. Here is the short report. Fredrik struggled onwards with Lua and C++ game hacking. Ola mentioned the Lua/C++ bridge Luabind, which was originally envisioned as a Boost::Python-like project, but generic, to hook up all C-like languages to C++.

Watch a 30-seconds teaser video for the soon-to-be-released manga (comic book, you know) Oblivion High. Yes, Nina, that perky web-and-illustration person you met when I used to live in Stockholm, sometimes with Jonas Bohlin nearby, or Joc Koljonen. That Nina.

phpsh needs ctags file

(sudo port install ctags.) To avoid warnings when generating the tags file: let ctags recurse, and ignore the non-PHP languages in your source tree: $ …
Io: my errno adventure in C
This pastie holds my first C patch. It actually repaired a Readline problem that appeared on my Mac when I git pull‘d Io’s source today. See the Io issue at their bugtracker. The pgsql heroes fixed the problem way before, so I could stand on the shoulders of smart giants. I don’t know how to …
Web Hacking? Hackmeetup!
Our little Open Source Tuesday was yesterday night – we had a sit-down, took out our laptops, and continued our projects. All three of us. I worked on understanding the PHP build system and workflow when creating C extensions. Got a bit further. I feel the need to write down the sequence of my failures, …
