Das eez kaput! Sometime around 2002 I spaced the entire database table that mapped individual entries to categories. Such is life. What follows is a random sampling of entries that were associated with the category. Over time, the entries will be updated and then it will be even more confusing. Wander around, though, it's still a fun way to find stuff.
Subject: Re: Sam Ruby: Anatomy of a Well Formed Log EntryS From: Aaron Straup Cope To: Kellan Date: 17 Jun 2003 08:41:53 -0400 <snip> > Just in care you were, you know, wondering what a weblog was :) </snip> It frankly baffles me (actually what really baffles me is why they removed the Emacs key-bindings from Evolution 1.4 but that's another story.) What precisely drives this ever-faster flow of tripe about weblogs being "revolutionary"? I'm sorry but I just can't talk about weblogs the same way I might about, say, the wheel or, more recently, electricity. About the only comparison you can make between wheels and weblogs is that there isn't much you can say about them, when you get down to the brass tacks, and that is precisely what's so special about them. Wheels are round and that's their killer-app, so to speak. We've gussied them up with things inside them, we've gussied them up with things around them; but nothing has changed their fundamental nature: they're round and they travel well. End of story.

As usual, I don't think there was any mention made of the oft-neglected classic Canadians among us but I had to stop listening about 5 seconds into the second "George W's West Wing" schtick.So tomorrow morning, a horde of Quebeckers will be enjoying something uniquely Quebecois, redeveloped, industrialized and popularised by a Southern donut chain. How distinctly Canadian -- or, at least as Canadian as the products of that other chain, owned by Americans, named after an American who played hockey for an American hockey team.
To be fair it's not quite so bad anymore, except on bad days when it's worse.They wolfed down their food, cramming corn bread into their sloppy maws during meals that were devoured in silence, punctuated only by slurps, grunts, scraping knives, and hacking coughs. (All those cigars.) At the Plate House, in the business district of New York, the naval captain and travel writer Basil Hall was astonished by the speed at which the corned beef arrived and then by the even greater speed at which it was demolished: We were not in the house above twenty minutes, but we sat out two sets of company at least. Only the boy waiters yelling orders at the kitchen broke the quiet. The lack of polite conversation suggested the melancholy and dispiriting monotony of American life, on which almost all the early reporters commented. Tocqueville explained the apparent paradox of anxiety amid prosperity as the result of the relentless obligation to be forever Up and Doing.

Feeling rather blue.
ex. I'm feeling rather nurple today.
use XML::SAX::Writer;
use XML::Directory::SAX;
use XML::Filter::XML_Directory_2RSS;
my $writer = XML::SAX::Writer->new();
my $rss = XML::Filter::XML_Directory_2RSS->new(Handler=>$writer);
$rss->exclude(exclude=>["RCS"],ending=>["~"]);
my $directory = XML::Directory::SAX->new(Handler=>$rss,
detail=>2,
depth=>1);
$directory->order_by("a");
$directory->parse_dir("/path/to/aaronland.net");
XML::Filter::XML_Directory_2RSS inherits from
XML::Filter::XML_Directory_Pruner
so that it can pass along all the necessary information to a
2RSS::Items handler for populating the
channel/items/rdf:Seq
node (ah RDF, let me rdf:Bag the ways...) In the end, I may have to
subclass XML::Directory::SAX itself and rename the package as a
"Handler" so that I can also pass/enforce ordering, detail and depth
configs. BTW, does anyone know whether the mod_threading
<thr:children>
element can contain <thr:children> of its own?
non-vulgar explitive that kinda resembles a vulgar explitive
ex. "When you stub your toe and you are letting it out, but notice two 4 year olds staring at you. You then yell, "Got dandruff! Some of it itches!""

<xsl:copy-of select = "transform(document($xml),document($xsl))" />Then it occurred to that you might be able to do the same thing like this (untested) :
<xsl:for-each select = "/xpath/to/some/xref[@style != '']"> <xsl:variable name = "style" select = "@style" /> <xsl:include href = "$style" /> </xsl:for-each> ... <!-- would really be a choose... --> <xsl:if test = "@style"> <xsl:apply-templates> <xsl:apply-templates select="document($uri)/$xpath"/> </xsl:apply-template> </xsl:if>So now I'm wondering if I really need to add an

When you get right down to it XML-RPC is about simple, easy to understand, requests and responses. ... SOAP, on the other hand, is designed for transferring far more complex sets of information.Which is a nice way to point out that if you strip away the kill 'em all, let god sort 'em out attitude from the get what you pay for debate that's been raging for the last few days, you're left with the perfectly reasonable everything has a tradeoff . Microsoft gives you illusion of ease of use and support and just plain working at the expense of a lock-in. *nix gives you the free beer and the free speech at the expense of making even the most trivial of tasks seem like putting a 5000 piece jigsaw puzzle together. Where, exactly, did all these men with hammers and their computerized utopias come from anyway?

This document uses CSS kung-fu and a small amount of JavaScript for rendering its contents. Efforts have been made to separate the form from the content so if you are viewing this in a text-based browser it shouldn't be an issue.
On the other hand it may look funny if you are viewing it in a browser with incomplete CSS and/or JavaScript implementations. Internet Explorer 6 comes to mind.
It's not that I don't love you. However, my time is limited and I no longer feel very good about spending it working around any one browser's inconsistencies with little, or no, confidence that they will ever be fixed or otherwise made more inconsistent at some later date.
On the other hand, if something is down-right unreadable please let me know and I will endeavour to fix it.

This page may not validate. It's not that I don't care, it's just that I'm not aware of it yet. Part of the reason that I rewrote the entire back-end for managing this site is that the old stuff made it too easy for these kinds of mistakes to slip through the cracks.
