Recovering lost IntelliJ IDEA shelved changesets
Monday, July 27th, 2009New Job!
Saturday, November 24th, 2007Looks like I have a new job in Melbourne! I start on the 2nd of January at Stock Software.. They are a small contracting / consultancy type place, and it sounds like I’ll be working on some cool J2EE stuff as well as some Ruby on Rails, which I should have some fun learning. Windows based desktops though.. I might end up having to use…… Vista.. Ergh.
I should be heading over just after Christmas, so there’s a little bit of time for me to get myself all packed and organised. I’ll probably typically leave everything until the last minute 
Got a new Nokia N95, mainly for the GPS feature so I don’t get too lost… Oh how I do like the new toys
Going to see Muse tomorrow night, that should be awesome.
Nasty haxors
Tuesday, July 17th, 2007Well it seems I’m back on the air after some nasty haxors (probably script kiddies) managed to root the box 
Prime suspect #1 is somebody’s insecure PHP code (not mine, of course 
). It’s times like this that really cements my recently found hatred for PHP. I’m thinking if I need to do any new sites that aren’t big enough to warrant Java, then I’ll have to look into something else. Python? Ruby? Hmm, there’s always too much new stuff to learn in this line of business….
On interweb trends
Thursday, June 7th, 2007It seems that not only do I have a blog now, but I find myself being increasingly suck(er)ed into these social networking sites. I now find I have a bebo, am on oldfriends.co.nz a dreaded myspace, and now also a facebook.
So far, facebook has the least offensive user interface. So much time-wasting, but it seems like good distraction from the JAAS security problems I’m having with JBoss right now
Different way of teaching programming
Wednesday, May 16th, 2007I saw this link on Digg, and was immediately interested. I have a friend, who is bright enough, but has never really been able to ‘get’ programming. This is because she learns in a aural/kinetic way, which is pretty much the exact opposite of the way programming is traditionally taught.
