That morning they were out in hi-vis jackets moving around all the street signs. Having lived on Chapel Road all my life I now lived on Oakley Street. "Must be worried about spies," said Peter next door. "Trying to throw them off." The post stopped

it’s not a doomburger, honest! this was a really solid run at rallying the troops and driving a positive spin on the economic inertia behind renewable energy. i’ll be honest, it’s tough to read this as the trump administration is asserting control over venezuela’s oil reser...

Argh! Now is not the time for one of the SSDs to act up. Tsk tsk.

Wow its quite unbelievable how bad search is now with Google. Remember when it became a verb, “to google something…. Now Google doesn’t find anything obscure at all. Like not buried pages deep, it just simply fails & displays nothing.…

My weekly blog post. Links this week include the story of the brotherhood keeping mustard pure, a reverse Minesweeper game that involves planting sunflowers and an article about an exhibition of some weird and wild knitted things. I show off awesome dinosaur corn holders, talk about upcoming surgery, the 2025 Edward Gorey Envelope Art Contest and link to the Tiny Site Awards where voting is happening now.

One of life's lessons is if someone does something evil to you, and you decide to let it go, they are sure to do it again and again until you stop letting them do it.

The AS/400 Revolution: “The System is the Solution” 🖥️

The AS/400 (introduced in 1988) was revolutionary because it was one of the first systems to integrate the hardware, operating system, and database into a single box — way before that became a common concept. IBM’s “The System is the Solution” campaign was one of the most successful in computing history, and the platform lasted so long that it was rebranded as IBM i in 2008, yet still actively used in thousands of businesses worldwide in the 2020s.

Even more impressive? RPG, which was created in the 1960s, is still in active use today — making it one of the longest continuously used programming languages in history. Many companies still rely on RPG programs written 30-40 years ago that continue to run flawlessly on IBM i systems.
