Demon gods are no match for Bruce Lee.

Why this movie isn’t a stoner classic, I don’t know. Maybe I’m not stoned enough.

//TODO: trust your code.

In any given programming project, the source code is the only trustworthy document.

Just for a change: some good news in the news.

The Supreme Court has struck down a Texas law forbidding gay sex, voting 6-3.

“Hot and Wet” should describe porn, not my living room.

I know Minnesota’s not nearly as humid as many other places. All I have to say in response is: thank goodness I don’t live in those places.

You’re a hack, and so’s your editor!

Nothing requires less thought than a series of brainless, one-sentence rants.

Shhh… don’t tell the Slashdotters.

Yes, I now have a Windows machine, and am now a tool of the man or whatever the Ufies and Slashdotters are calling them these days.

My apartment is composed of an indefinite and perhaps infinite number of hexagonal galleries…

It’s not such a good feeling to be reorganizing your bookshelves afterwards and find piles of books stuffed in corners and cabinets all over the apartment.

As God is my witness, I’ll never use JTextField again!

The really sweet thing about JFormattedTextField is the way it beats JTextField as a general-purpose text editing component.

Vince McMahon is the new manager at the JBoss Group.

In true JBoss fashion, everyone involved seems to have made a concerted effort to talk as much trash as possible during the whole affair.

The end of the NBA season.

The San Antonio Spurs beat the New Jersey Nets tonight 88-77, to win the 2003 NBA Championship.

NBA shocker: One team actually scored more than 90 points!

Some quotes from the game.

Time keeps on slipping into the future.

There are days, like today, when I really wonder.

Decision making through poor web app coding.

Online comparison shopping is a lot easier when half the sites you go to won’t give you a price quote because either their Javascript-laden form buttons won’t submit anything or their server-side controllers fail to redirect you to the right destination, leaving you stuck at a blank interim page.

In case Vim wasn’t awesome enough already.

Yegappan Lakshmanan’s Taglist plugin does pretty much everything I ever dreamed of my own script doing, and does it for every language that Exuberant Ctags supports

Garbage time.

84-79 is the kind of score you see in a high school playoff game, not in an NBA championship series.

Getting back up on that ol’ horse.

In going back to programming in Java, though, I’ve noticed something surprising: I already miss Python.

Must-Sim TV?

The creator of the Sims (which I swear I will actually play one of these days) has signed a development deal with Fox.
