Identi.ca Updates for 2009-09-29
Apparently today I woke up as a braindead, clumsy zombie. So far no casualties at work due to transformation. Still I need braaaainns. # Reached hypercaffeinated state, will code like crazy until the next refill. Fingers crossed that I make it before the code freeze. # Alright! Now on to fleshing out 2 or 3…

Building a few more UIs in ExtJS. Outlook for the day: Busy, very busy. # On to building a whack load of Oracle DAOs. Wishing the firm started using the full power of an app server. Pity it isn’t gonna happen. # Powered by modified Twitter Tools.

Looking Forward: Ubuntu’s App Store
Ubuntu developers will be releasing the beta of the next major version of Ubuntu Linux: 9.10 sometime in the next two weeks. Yours truly, plans on upgrading my main home system to help with the beta test. With every release I’m expecting a rather incremental improvement. However the real interest feature (which I doubt will…

Or rather I’ve always hated dealing with inconsistencies in DOM handling in browsers. Whenever I deal with CSS, I always hate dealing with cross-browser checking. Fortunately with increased popularity of…

Meet My Next Phone
I’ve been a huge fan of the Maemo system, since I got my hands on a N810. Now I can hardly wait to get my hands on an Internet tablet with phone capabilities: N900. The price is a bit prohibitive, and I have no clue when I’ll be able to get one up here in…

Stumbling Forward
Today proved a much more productive day, in terms of day-to-day small tasks. No such luck with my long term project. In fact I’m dealing with another setback, which makes me question why I even bother with this goal. Everyday this seems to slip further from my fingers, and the less I care in general.…

District 9, Ki and Writing
What a great weekend it was. I got to do a bit of clubbing with friends. The next day I also went to see District 9 with Karolina. What an awesome movie, quite unconventional and enjoyable to watch. Even people who don’t like science fiction will enjoy this movie. Ended the night with supper at…
