I’m open to argument.

Could sending more children to state-sponsored faith schools tip the balance one way or the other?

Watch Google squirm.

How about the full text of many recent posts on several of the WordPress developer’s blogs? Without your knowledge or permission? Does that sound like a valuable option?

You will need: SQL knowledge or interest, geekiness, a cup of coffee.

I have removed Experts Exchange from the links. I no longer use the site, nor recommend that others do so. It has become too advertising heavy, resorting to popups which evade the anti-popup measures in my browser.

That is simply too much. I am WorkingJourneyman no more.

The Gospel, according to John, Brignell:

One of the first rules of systems engineering is that, if you want to investigate reasons for variations of output, you look first at variations in the prime input forcing function.

One of the first rules of engineering is that there isn’t a first rule, only many rules, any of which may be the first, all the time.

Anyway, it’s only weather.

HAH! If that were true, people wouldn’t get so het up about it. :)

I did something quite cool today. I turned one of my blog posts into a program, using no more than fragment identifiers and a simple Outreach tag to GET user <input> from <form>s.
