Changes to the UTOSP
I shortened the page load times on the Utah Open Source Planet by bringing the number of posts down from 60 to 40.
Oh, how the mighty have fallen!
OK, so that’s a little dramatic, but still, my blog’s google placement for certain keywords has suffered sorely and it troubles me.
It all started with comment spam. I installed a spam eating plug-in to keep the flood from pouring over my blog, and it worked well – too well. At first, I was [...]
One year of blathering.
A year ago, I gave wordpress a spin and started sharing with the world some of the many things that interest me. This tends to be stuff about Open Source/Free software. The cool thing about Open Source software is that it seems to have universal appeal. This map shows typical geographic locations [...]

This should lead to some interesting search results. If so, I’ll share what I’ve learned 5 or 6 weeks from now.

It’s kinda like setting a trap. Analytics – that’s some fun stuff :)

I never thought I would see this day…
That’s how you know you’re following too many mailing lists.
Django RULES!!!
But sadly, it’s unusable for me. It really, really bums me out.
The bugs responsible are here and here. There’s related reading in Google Groups and also a related ticket here.
I want to put out a bounty for this bug, but I don’t want to step on the toes of the developers. Any fix [...]
Django VS the AMD Sempron
Today’s screenshot is brought to you by the Django Admin interface:
For those of you who don’t recognize this, it’s the GNOME System Monitor applet. The dark blue basically represents CPU usage for Django (more accurately – caused by Django). The model validates [1] and the tables/Models are shown in the front page of [...]
Python and Django – Big points in the first quarter.
I don’t have a ton to say right now (really, I don’t have a lot of *time* to say it), but first impressions of Python and Django are very positive. The admin interface is a great little tool to get things going FAST. I’m really, really impressed. The CREATE TABLES are clean, [...]
Cool Planet
Seeing this makes me want to put into action my plans to revamp the Utah Open Source Planet. Wish I would have thought of it first :(
Bumps ahead
The humble server that I use to host a few (11) web sites is getting updated. It’s not going to be that big of a deal (99% idle instead of 97% idle).
The big deal will be the addition of Xen, LVM and RAID. I’m thinking about setting up a small domU that will [...]
