I’d just like to mention that I’ve browsed through those two books that I mentioned yesterday (Rapid Application Development with Mozilla and Creating Applications With Mozilla) are pretty much exclusively about XUL. Nothing, that I noticed in my quick browse, about creating a GECKO based executable (like I want to do). I have a feeling […]

As I browse source code of different stuff I come across lines like this:
## This script is a hack. It’s brute force. It’s horrible.
## It doesn’t use Artificial Intelligence. It doesn’t use Virtual Reality.
## It’s not perl. It’s not python. It probably won’t work unchanged on

Ok, so (as you may see) I’ve gotten WordPress working the way I want (really, I only wanted to change the blog’s subtitle). Finally.
Why was it such a pain, you ask? Well, my illustrious reader, the problem (like so many web problems) had to do with caching (and ACS’s firefox settings). The twist is that […]
Ok, so I finally got myself a website. Yeah for me.
Set up with dream host was great (though it was annoying waiting for all the DNS servers to pick up my domain. But that’s nobody’s fault), and I’m really impressed with WordPress. My only problem with it (or rather Seneca’s computer setup) is that I […]
