0xDECAFBAD OPML Blog



Hi, my name is Les, and this is my plan. Looking for my usual blog? Try 0xDECAFBAD.

Hello world. I'm exhausted - slept in the clinic last night, covered in wires. To get a good natural reading from me they kept me off CPAP for half the night, so that was a disaster in terms of actual rest. I think I got about 2 or 3 actual hours' sleep once they put me back on the breathing machine. Woke up with a raw throat, a nasty limpy leg cramp, and a seriously cranky mood. Hoping I'll at least be somewhat productive today. Serious business, this sleep apneaPermanent link to this item in the archive.

One side effect of Yahoo! Photos closing and my choosing to migrate to Flickr: I rediscovered the photo I used in a Yahoo! Personals ad through which my wife first found me. Found, with the intention to mock, that is. Permanent link to this item in the archive.

Funny how long I've had a Yahoo! login ID. I'd guess it's been almost 10 years. I wonder where I might find that signup date? Permanent link to this item in the archive.

It's too bad that the iPhone's BlueTooth is limited to headsets. A BlueTooth iFrog might be nice to use with it, maybe even an iFrog wearablePermanent link to this item in the archive.

railsgis: 'Mr. Orchard falls in love with PHP again. Personally, I'd prefer Python Twisted for "bucket of parts from a single source that fit together"' Permanent link to this item in the archive.

I wouldn't say I'm in love with PHP - quite the opposite. It's just that it seems to have won the war so far in hosting penetration. I've had dalliances with Twisted over the past few years - and though I do dig quite a lot about it, it seems to have quite a high bar for adoption. (Keep in mind I've been considering WordPress as a role model.) Permanent link to this item in the archive.

The more I think about the Zend Framework, the less I think I'm actually all that enamored with it. The docs need work, some bits seem missing or clunky, and I catch small hints here and there that there's a bit of flutter in the consistency of the framework's development process and goals. One funny thing, though, is that there's a Zend office almost within walking distance of our apartment. I wonder if I could walk down there and have a chat about things? :) Permanent link to this item in the archive.
