http://mutantmonkey.info the only home of a coding monkey Wed, 20 Aug 2008 00:29:58 +0000 http://backend.userland.com/rss092 en Recently I ordered a new motherboard, CPU, video card, RAM, 2 hard drives, and a new fan for my main computer. It's over 5 years old and it really needed a new CPU. The last of my order arrived on Thursday. Unfortunately, when I put it together, the PC would ... http://mutantmonkey.info/2007/08/04/dead-on-arrival-again/ I apologize for the spam and the blog going down, but I'm sure no one reads this anymore anyway. Hopefully I'll start posting on this thing more often, but that's unlikely seeing as how I often end up abandoning my blogs. http://mutantmonkey.info/2007/04/29/its-back/ Yay, it's up! I'll be keeping most of the packages up to date (at least more up-to-date than the official ones), as I use most of these apps regularly. Enjoy! Check it out! http://mutantmonkey.info/2006/12/01/apt-get-repository/ The power supply that came with my case (an Antec SmartPower 350) died on Saturday, October 7th, approximately 7 months, 18 days. At first I thought it was my motherboard, but apparently someone had the exact same problem. The only similarity between our two cases: the PSU. I tried all ... http://mutantmonkey.info/2006/10/16/dead-on-arrival/ I've been working a lot on Enteon recently. I've been moving a lot over to use "AJAX" (even though I hate that term, but typing out XMLHttpRequest takes too long). I am trying my best to maintain compatibility with non-Javascript enabled browsers, however I don't think many people are going ... http://mutantmonkey.info/2006/07/20/enteon-development-update/ A little while ago, David informed me that someone was trying to inject SQL using IceBB's search function and it was triggering MySQL errors. Luckily, I had code in mysql.db.php that would e-mail the board administrator after 10 MySQL errors to let them know that something might be wrong. I ... http://mutantmonkey.info/2006/06/18/icebb-security-hole/ Well, it's been a long time since I've done a rant, so I might as well do one now. What exactly is "Web 2.0?" What was "Web 1.0?" What is classified as Web 2.0? The whole idea of Web 2.0 is ridiculous. It seems like any site that uses "AJAX" and ... http://mutantmonkey.info/2006/05/14/web-20/ Well, like David, I too have been working on IceBB. I've mainly been focusing on the Admin Control Center, as it's being redesigned and recoded for IceBB 0.9.2. I really like what I've come up with for the temporary skin, but maybe that's just because it's based on David's excellent ... http://mutantmonkey.info/2006/05/13/icebb-092-development-update-admin-control-center/ Seeing as how I haven't blogged for a few months, and I just got back from Cancun two weeks ago today, I might as well blog about my trip. This one was pretty uneventful, everything went smoothly, unlike last time. We stayed at the Moon Palace in Cancun, Mexico. We had ... http://mutantmonkey.info/2006/04/26/back-from-cancun-againtwo-weeks-ago/ I haven't posted in a while (almost two months now), so I might as well announce something I've been working on: Sollievo, a simple content management system. I've gotten tired of some of the bloated CMSes out there today. Not everyone needs a built in forum, user system, etc. So, ... http://mutantmonkey.info/2006/02/19/yes-im-still-alive/
