TL;DR Our online discourse is the victim of industrial scale pollution, and the incentives are being aligned in the wrong direction. Rather than polluters being penalised there’s now an entire industry that’s paid to pollute. Filter Failure at the Outrage Factory is no longer just the work of ‘amateur’ fringe trolls and state sponsored propaganda; […]

GL.iNet MT-6000 Flint2 Review
TL;DR The Flint 2 seems to be a pretty awesome router. It was a little fiddly to set up my (quite complex) existing VLANs and wireless networks onto it, but it’s been working without a hitch since then :) Why? I’ve had a Draytek 2866ax router paired with an AP960C access point for about 18m[1]. […]

Today’s dose of doxorubicin marks the end of the third round of Milo’s second CHOP protocol. Each time I take him to the vets they ask how he’s doing, and I always answer “he’s doing really well”, because if he wasn’t there for chemo he’d seem like a fit and healthy young dog. When he […]

RIP Dad
This is (something like) what I’ll read as the eulogy for my Dad at his funeral today. — My first memories of Dad were of him tinkering with stuff in his garage. He was always making and mending. He taught me how to be an engineer. There seemed to be a constant flow of people […]

Pupdate The boys got their first taste of ‘doggy daycare’ at a local kennels, and seemed to get on with it OK. They even got a report card: They also got ‘done’ this month, which led to a day or two of feeling pretty sorry for themselves: Electromagnetic Field I only found out about Electromagnetic […]

My Dart wish list
Dart is the main language that The @ Company uses, so after a few months here are the things that I’m missing the most: 1. YAML output Dart is pretty much build around YAML. Dependencies are defined in a pubspec.yaml, so of course there’s a YAML parser, that’s what yaml/yaml.dart does. But: This library currently […]

I already wrote about my plans to get a TMS9995 running on RC2014, so this is the post about how I put together an RC2014 version of Stuart Conner’s TMS 9995 Breadboard or PCB System. Planning Taking a look at the TMS9995 pinout and the RC2014 module template it became clear that there was no […]

I first used this analogy at an Open Cloud Forum event in Zurich a couple of months back, and I just used it again in a panel discussion at DevSecOps Days London. I’ve been meaning to incorporate it into a DevOps presentation, but until then… Jenga The ‘traditional’ Enterprise IT approach to stability is a […]

With the launch of the iPad now a few days behind us, and the dust beginning to settle I thought it was time to reflect on what this is going to mean to the marketplace. Firstly this is a device for ‘normals‘ (though I do like the term ‘muggles‘). It is intended for the consumption of media, […]

Update (3 May 2010) – I’m getting increasingly sick of how often this machine fails to record things. Worse still I’ve even seen it say that it’s started to record something, but when I go to watch it there’s nothing in the list. Reliability is awful compared to when I first started using it. I’m […]
