20 March 2009, 23:42 UTCEmergent Blog, now with 100% more CNC
I'm merging this blog with my old AXIS/EMC2 blog. Look forward to more posts about cnc and related topics.
Update: I've merged old AXIS blog entries into this one, so you can read the old stuff here as well. Copied entries are marked "(originally posted on the AXIS blog)".
19 March 2009, 18:30 UTCTags
I finally got around to adding tags to aether. Next I'll probably
do an rss feed by tag(s), and finally fold the axis blog into my main blog
(this one).
Update: I added blog and feed by tag. To get only posts that have at least one of a set of tags, first visit the tag page, then use the 'read my blog with this tag' or 'follow my feed with this tag' link.
1 December 2008, 14:41 UTCMedia file hosting change
I've always hosted this website and a few siblings on my home machine
over a slow DSL link (384kbps outgoing speed). This is fine for the text,
but for images it's not the greatest---a 3 megabyte jpeg would take
about a minute, and that's if you're n competing with anybody else.
13 January 2006, 5:02 UTC in softwareAether: getting rid of the extra URL component
Aether likes to have its own directory component, which I called "index.cgi" on
all the sites I've set up. Finally, I have changed my webserver configuration
to get rid of this need, while keeping the old site layout working (I think).
9 December 2005, 1:30 UTC in softwareNetflix to Aether converter
I use the code below to create the netflix sidebar on the front page of my
blog. I offered it to Michael, so I suppose I'd better post it here.
It features elementtree-based parsing, timestamp-based caching of the rss file (not the parsing result), and output into aether markup.
Files currently attached to this page:

It's now time to put this machine to rest too.

Too bad that machine never had a year of continuous uptime. Oh well.
Hopefully I'm right that there's nothing useful running there anymore...

If you see this blog entry, you're looking at the page on its new home.
14 July 2005, 13:57 UTC in softwareTimestamp-based caching for filesystem-based dynamic websites
aether is nice, but it's a bit slow, especially when many local files
must be parsed to produce a single page. cache.cgi is a simple program that,
in cooperation with any filesytem-based dynamic website, can serve from a
cached copy of the page when it is appropriate to do so.
