Which One Am I?

March 7th, 2010 No Comments

Hint: Lower right, second to the end, wearing a “Flight 23″ shirt. I look like a tiny Linus Torvalds, and apparently I’m holding hands with the foreign-exchange student beside me.
Random thoughts: Notice we had one black kid, and one Asian kid in the entire class. I was friends with both, but looking back these two [...]

Trying to learn how to create those vector graphics in PhotoShop. I’ve got a long way to go, obviously.

New Years Resorted Resolutions

January 31st, 2010 No Comments

I’ve had the same typical resolutions for the past two years. Stuff from years past has been trashed. That, all in itself, should tell you something.
1) Quit smoking. (Smoked in high-school, then quit until I was 23-ish)
2) Work out, build muscle.
3) Get laid.
Laziness has never been an issue; I just don’t have time. Perhaps I [...]

UnFocus Yourself

January 18th, 2010 No Comments

It seems like I’m building a new site every week, and letting the old ones sit idle while they receive just enough traffic to justify their existence. Ndamukong.org is growing nicely, but the content has been lacking because the only truth I know about sports is that I suck at all of them. So apparently [...]

Welcome to Nebraska

January 2nd, 2010 No Comments

If you’ve ever been to Lincoln, Nebraska, you’ll notice that most of our citizens share a command thread: appreciation of the Nebraska Cornhuskers football team. Each Saturday during the game season, our wonderful stadium becomes the third largest ‘city’ in the state, with a general population near 80,000 people. Usually it’s hard enough to engineer [...]

2010 Major Life Changing Experiment

January 2nd, 2010 No Comments

2009 was a good year. Which is why I’m selling everything I own and starting out 2010 with literally zero dollars to my name, with the intent to build up my assets and personal wealth to at least one million dollars in cash before December 31, 2011. All through the internet.
Now since this is more [...]

Advanced PHP Session Security Concepts, Part One

December 30th, 2009 No Comments

When I have trouble understanding complex issues, I often try to deconstruct the topic and then compare the basic concept to a daily routine that I have already figured out. This process hasn’t let me down until recently, when I was trying to wrap my head around web security. As usual, I don’t expect replies [...]

Merry Christmas.

December 25th, 2009 No Comments

It’s 4:12 AM on Christmas morning, and I’m programming some JavaScript for a webapp that I’ve been working on. That’s either supreme dedication, or downright mental.
In any event, enjoy your holiday.

Google Android Developer Forum and Free Code

November 10th, 2009 No Comments

Like many people, I bought into the hype and purchased a first generation iPhone and iPod Touch (second generation) when they first came out. Mostly I just wanted a phone that had all the cool new features, partially because I wanted to be trendy, but also because some of those options included were pretty useful [...]
