Back of the Envelope: November 2010

Back of the Envelope. Thursday, November 11, 2010. Land of Lisp book review. Because the author assumes the reader has a basic grasp of his operating environment, setting up a Common Lisp implementation (editor/compiler) is not covered in detail. If that idea is too daunting for you, then you may wish to refer to the beginning chapters of Peter Seibel's Practical Common Lisp. Or David Lamkin's Successful Lisp. As a starting point and come back to LoL when you're more comfortable with how things work.

Back of the Envelope. Thursday, October 14, 2010. Back to the Mac. On 20 October, Apple is going to let the world know what they have planned for OS X 10.7. Wednesday, October 13, 2010. As seen on HN. 1998: "if" too slow; use "case". 2002: "case" too slow; use Boolean algebra. 2006: Boolean algebra too slow, use arrays and pointers. 2010: Who wrote this shit and what does it do? Rewritten to use "if". Friday, October 08, 2010. Reasons for continued existence of 3GS. 1) Reduce supply pressure of the iPhon...

Back of the Envelope: September 2010

Back of the Envelope. Tuesday, September 28, 2010. So Blackberry has revealed its iPad competitor, the PlayBook. Without access to the SDK, these are some of my thoughts:. 1) It's running on QNX RTOS or some flavor of it. QNX has a long history in the embedded space and it's nice to see that Blackberry management does not fall victim to the "not invented here" syndrome. 3) Specs-wise it looks good. Power management is unknown however. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Ben Mok Pedal On. Mind of a daft bitch.

Back of the Envelope: MINI Habitat Singapore does not perform Preventive Maintenance
http://backoftheenvelope.blogspot.com/2010/12/mini-habitat-singapore-does-not-perform.html
Back of the Envelope. Wednesday, December 22, 2010. MINI Habitat Singapore does not perform Preventive Maintenance. Both the driver and passenger sun visor hinges on Eve's R56 MINI were worn and were close to breaking. The passenger-side was replaced under warranty while we were told that that we had to wait for the driver-side to be stocked, which would be outside the warranty period. Download the audio where the service manager states clearly that MINI Habitat does not perform preventive maintenance.

Ewen's garden: Propagating a Kiwi Christmas
http://ewensgarden.blogspot.com/2007/12/propagating-kiwi-christmas.html
A collection of columns, paintings and photographs about gardening on an offshore island in New Zealand. Monday, December 17, 2007. Propagating a Kiwi Christmas. While relaxing on the deck during the weekend, my partner was moved to comment on the growth of the yucca Yucca elephantipes. Being the festive season naturally I have some Christmas lilies Lilium longiflorum. The flowers I am enjoying at the moment and the tuis are the tall flower spikes of the flax, Phormium tenax.

Ewen's garden: July 2004

A collection of columns, paintings and photographs about gardening on an offshore island in New Zealand. Wednesday, July 14, 2004. First off just a few notes more about genus Passiflora sp. the passion vines. The common edible passionfruit, P.edulis realy only does well for up to six years, beyond this it loses vigour and should be replaced with a new plant. It would seem they live fast die young, I guess this is in the nature of some things! Posted by Ewen @ 9:43 AM. Waiheke Island, New Zealand. Prepari...
