  • Immature Geek Humor

    While at lunch today, we discussed how one of our clients actually understands what we do: why we may be more expensive than your typical web haus, but are ultimately better. The answer is because your average web design company knows little-to-nothing about backend development, whereas our expertise lies primarily in the backend of software…

  • Welcome to YarshBlog 2.0!

    Just a quick note – YarshBlog 2.0 is now fully functional. Take a look around – there isn’t a whole lot that is different as far as look and feel, but there are some new features, like categories and new Yarsh stats / about me info. Plus, you don’t have to be a member of…

  • XHTML compliance is Bullsh**!

    I have been hard at work for the past few days on my new blog software, and I have decided to make it totally XHTML 1.0 compliant. It has taken me nearly 3 times the amount of work, but thus far I have been successful at making it XHTML 1.0 Strict compliant. I am satisfied…

  • Changes, they are a comin’

    Just wanted to let you all know that I have begun work on converting my blog from Blogger to WordPress. What this means to you, my 3 readers (I gained another reader!): The ability to comment on my blog without having a Blogger username. So, for those lurkers out there, you will only need to…

    Yesterday marked the end of my tenure with Trax Technologies. I am full of mixed emotions about this. I have been, and will continue to be, restrained in what I say about the company that has given me 2+ years of employment. However, I did want to say a few final things. To start, my…

  • One point Twenty-One JigaWatts!

A couple of his pictures got me thinking about the classic blunder of Doc Brown in the Back to the Future trilogy, where he refers to the amount of electricity needed to power the DeLorean for time travel – 1.21…

  • I’m checking my Gmail…

    Gmail, Google’s forray into free email, is potentially a Yahoo and Hotmail killer. I currently have over 2.5GB of storage space for email and attachments alone, whereas the free services offered by those other companies is less than a Gig. Granted, 1GB is a lot of text and HTML email, but add in attachments and…

  • Internet Goodies…

    My brother, in the past, has written about the wonders of YouTube. You can find some great videos (and some terrible ones) on there, all for free viewing. Recently, I found that you can integrate their videos into your own personal website. The only “quirky” behavior that these videos have is dependent on where you…

  • The DCtm – Episode 1.01

    Jimmy was beginning to hate his newly appointed position. He was definitely the most qualified to fill it, but Jackson’s micro-management was getting in the way. It was begining to piss him off. The SQL server crashes and lack of space issues were just magnifying the pain. Max Enterprises seemed to specialize in server instability.…

  • The DCtm

    I got a tv show that I want to pitch to the execs at Fox – especially considering some of the goings-on in our data center today. I can see it now… Coming soon to Fox: From the creators of The Simple Life, American Idol, and Nanny 911 comes the all new, laugh out loud,…
