The presentation clogged up my blog buffer. *flush* Making Money Spent a few days power-washing a rather large driveway. I put on super strong sunscreen but I still got a little toasted. I’ll consider it nicely tanned. 🙂 The job will probably be the only paid labour I do all summer, which I’m fine with.… Continue reading Catching Up
Open Source Software (in Vancouver) part 3
OSS Presentation On Wednesday (Aug 2nd), I finally went to UBC Robson Square and did my presentation for VanDev. It went okay, I guess. And I’m certainly relieved it’s over! But I think some people were expecting to learn more about free (and open source) software. If people get what they’re not expecting, they’re likely… Continue reading Open Source Software (in Vancouver) part 3

Providing a Service
On my last post, my friend, Jesse, commented on how he had a dilemma while designing a website for a client. His problem was that his client is not technically oriented. What clients are? That’s why they’re clients. 🙂 Anyway, since he liked my recent graphic efforts so much, I decided to illustrate the simplest… Continue reading Providing a Service

Open Source Software (OSS) part2
OSS Presentation I blogged previously that I was creating a presentation on OSS. Since then, for various reasons, the direction of the presentation has changed. It has become more focused (a good thing), but I’m still looking for input. The new focus will be on Open Source in Vancouver. (Incidentally, that’s also the title. :P)… Continue reading Open Source Software (OSS) part2
Tofino Fishing, Link Dump
Tofino Alright, so I’ve returned from my fishing trip. Actually, I returned like a week ago. ^_^ I went to Tofino with my Dad, his girlfriend, and my brother. I caught the biggest fish both of the trip (my dad hooked it, I reeled it in), and of my life: a 22.5 pound Spring Salmon.… Continue reading Tofino Fishing, Link Dump
Gone Fishing…
Finished my condensed summer course (math) and I’ve gone fishing for the weekend. Whoooo.. Enjoy your weekend, like I will. 🙂
Import Photos Script
I used to use a script to copy my files from my digital camera memory card to my computer. Since recent Ubuntu releases use gnome-volume-manager to automatically prompt you with a Photo Import dialog when you insert your memory card, I never bothered using my script. If it was just a memory card over USB… Continue reading Import Photos Script
Open Source Software (OSS) part1
So I’ve been doing some research on OSS. I’m trying to prepare a presentation on the topic. Originally, I was planning on doing “Open Source Development” (ridiculously ironic considering the amount of OSS development I do…) but before I get into that, I wanted to be clear on what “Open Source” actually was. I’ve had… Continue reading Open Source Software (OSS) part1
