Updated Wordpress

Posted by Edward on January 30th, 2008

I finally got enough courage to update my Wordpress installation from 2.0.4 to 2.3.2 and although time consuming it worked almost out of the box. The pages didn’t render at all at first. After activating my plug-ins the pages rendered but included several messages begining with “Warning: preg_replace() [function.preg-replace]: Compilation failed: nothing to repeat at […]

The first 30-day trial

Posted by Edward on January 22nd, 2008

I boldly stole the concept from my friend Mika and his blog Mind Matters. The concept is to challenge one self into changing a bad habit or trying a new habit for a while.
As it is I don’t take particularly good care of myself. I eat too much, I exercise too little, I don’t sleep […]

Status of RAUBitB¹

Posted by Edward on November 22nd, 2007

Since I have sold my bookcases, and most other furniture, in conjunction with this move from Linköping to Stockholm all my books live in cardboard boxes (as do most other things as well). This limits my access to the books some what at the moment. Add to this that the ride to work takes 10-15 […]

Must … update … blog …

Posted by Edward on November 20th, 2007

It’ll be a gargantuan task to find the time but I must upgrade to a later version of Wordpress and Akismet. As it is my comments in moderation fill up in no time with useless spam. And I should probably do something about the theme as well. Oh well, …
And then there are those […]

Disk Crash Bonanza

Posted by Edward on November 6th, 2007

What ever you do don’t let me near any of your critical systems. I break things just by being. In fact I don’t even need to be present as crash number 2 will show.
Crash 1: As I and my brother and some friends eat dinner the computer hick-ups and reboots. As I walk over I […]

Nothingness

Posted by Edward on October 7th, 2007

The four weeks of lovely nothingness from the vacation seems to have permeated this blog. Actually quite a lot has happened and I have tons of stuff to write about. It’s just that I haven’t hade the time or will to sit down and write a blog entry. I’ll do better in the future.
Things to […]

An upgrade and some plug-ins

Posted by Edward on September 13th, 2006

So I finally stole some time to polish some kinks out of this site. It is now updated to WordPress 2.0.4. I have also started adding some plug-ins. You may notice the gravatars in the comments, the little name/picture/e-mail thingy at the top of the sidebar, Technorati tags and a syntax highlighter.
I also […]

My personal How-To repository

Posted by Edward on September 13th, 2006

If you are anything like me, i.e. has a terrible memory, you might want to keep a recepie of a common task written down somewhere. I find that I frequently forget how to do simple things like declaring custom events properly. And when I need a refresher course I grab a book or surf the […]

First semi-offical post

Posted by Edward on August 20th, 2006

This blog isn’t really active yet, I’m still trying to understand what blogging is all about, how Wordpress works and what I’m going to write about. Well, actually I have some idea what this blog is about - me - and why I started it. It’s a cowards way out of writing letters to a […]
