This beast will be mine on Tuesday. I’ve been wanting an 70′s Ibanez SG for a long time, and I will soon have one. I highly recommend you guys check out the Music Swop Shop for any of your awesome gear requirements. The guy’s there are fucking awesome. I rolled in to the shop 5 minutes before closing time and they still let me dick around on this thing for like 15 minutes, and they’re holding it for me till Tuesday.

I’ve been toying with the idea of converting some software I’ve written (in Python) into a scripting language. Or library. I haven’t really figured that out yet.

I guess the pro’s of making it a library are that people who are already familiar with Python can use it with little to no learning curve. The cons to this are that I am a controlling jerk, and maybe I don’t want people to be able to use my code however they please.

Creating my own scripting language is something I’ve wanted to do for a long time, and this would be the perfect project to do it. But maybe I just want bragging rights and an online community who worship everything I do. Those are standard fare for the people who create their own languages. Like I said, controlling jerk.

Stop packaging your god damn backup software on my external hard drive. Whatever magic your software does can’t be easier than the click and drag system I’ve been using for the past forever.

If I wanted to use your crappy software to backup my files… I guess I’d install them and use them or something.

Wow this has been a long time coming. I gotta be honest, I really dislike the old design. I threw it together over a period of maybe 10 hours just so I could have something to show for a job I was going for. It wasn’t really thought out and looking back on it now, I honestly don’t know why I got hired. Guess I did something right in the interview, or the stars were in alignment or whatever (no Elliot, I don’t believe in astrology, sit back down) . Don’t get me wrong, the direction I was going in was good, but after I had secured employment, the site had served it’s purpose and the need to flesh it out to full completion just wasn’t there anymore.

So just over a year and a half later, I figured it could use a refresh. I had a stack of leave built up, and it’s not like I’m going to do anything useful to do so I figure hey, why not waste my time redesigning a website that I’ll probably never use. That way when it comes time for me to pay for hosting again, I can justify spending money on this site instead of more useful things, like cigarettes.

Anyway, as is tradition with my websites (both professional and personal), I leave you with a picture of our supreme overlord and master.

DASVIDANYA!
