I've been a busy man, but now I'm starting to get back into the swing of things.  I have been studying Javascript as much as possible, and plan to start posting articles about javascript soon.  (Possibly even tonight)  But I realize I've been away from my site too long when I found it and had forgotten what it looked like....

Javascript thoughts OOP and jsDoc

Thoughts on Javascript Lately, I have been focusing a lot on User Interfaces on the web, and building full blown applications via javascript, html, and css. This is a very daunting task. Debugging all the various browsers alone is enough to drive a person to drinking. I have coded in Javascript for as long as I've known about the web, but it's object oriented stuff has never really stood out to me, until today. In my opinion Javascript feels like a very loosely structured language...

Ubuntu 11.10 and NVidia-173 A Difficult Combo I just recently decided to upgrade from Linux Mint 8, to Ubuntu 11.10 (in anticipation of 12.04's release next month.)

Fun with FreeBSD Servers

FreeBSD Servers  I recently discovered BSD and have since fallen in love with it.  It is everything I hoped Linux would be... and wasn't. In my adventures in BSD Land, I have attempted to configure a few servers for personal/public use, and here is my most recent concoction in an attempt to develop a "BASE" BSD server install.   I started with FreeBSD 9.0 install cd and performed a text book install. (nothing special) First I used portsnap to download the latest...
