I’ve been completely fed up with news/feed/rss/atom readers these days. I use Linux as my primary operating system, and I only have a few feeds that I want to rip through quick so I can get to reading the content. Yet, trying to find a reader that doesn’t suck donkey balls has been a chore.

Wanna know what all the Ruby vulnerabilities are? Or at least have a fun look at how to search through code for clues? It’s a blast.

I’m dropping a large blog post on everyone to just say that I haven’t died, I’ve just been busy working on my book for A/W about Mongrel. I had contracted with them to do a book about deploying Mongrel, but then decided it wouldn’t be a very good book since we’d already done one about that topic and there wasn’t too much more to say.

NYC Factor Hack With littledan

Daniel Ehrenberg will be coming in to town this Friday and said he’d love to meet up with the little Factor group I organize on Fridays. In case you don’t know, Daniel is this guy.

Here’s some things about him:

  • And also known as littledan in #concatenative on irc.freenode.org.
  • He is usually very helpful and knows way more about Factor than I do.
  • He’s actively working on Unicode for Factor as well as several other libraries. His blog posts on Unicode are pretty good as well.
  • He maintains the FAQ for Factor and works on much of the documentation.

Dan will be coming in from out of town, and will be leaving the next day. He’s looking to hack with people interested in Factor, talk about coding in general, ask people about working in NYC, and probably do a bit of teaching.

After that, I was thinking we could hit a spot or two around Union Square if people are up for it, or got get Arepas or something else tasty.

Location

As usual, it’ll be at 7pm on Friday Jan 11th at:

Earth Matters 177 Ludlow St. New York, NY 10002

See you all there.
