If you're seeing this post, DNS has updated, and you've been directed to my new blog hosting. If I've done everything correctly, all of my previous posts are available here, at the same URLs. Hopefully I've even set up the Atom feed so that anyone using a feed reader has been automatically redirected as well.

I was inspired, this weekend, by off-list discussion of Luwak and by Guy Steele's talk How to Think about Parallel Programming—Not!. The two seemed naturally attracted, and thus I created the luwak_mr module.

Webmachine (and Erlang use in general) is picking up. If you're looking for a few more people to follow in relation to webmachine, I have some suggestions.Monday, February 16, 2009
Steven Frank agrees that 3-choice voting (like/shrug/dislike) is plenty. It's great to see someone else suggest it. Maybe we'll see it pop up in a few more places.

Unfortunately, I only found out this morning that some of you probably thought I had given up on BeerRiot. A month or so ago, I started hosting another domain on the same server, and thought I'd set up Yaws to handle that properly. Unfortunately, I botched it bad enough that while beerriot.com still worked, www.beerriot.com didn't. Sorry!

Hi all. In case you're wondering why BeerRiot has been down most of today - it's a hardware problem. Something about faulty drives on the machine hosting my VPS, which keeps throwing things into read-only mode.

Just got back from DevHouse Boston. Thought I'd spill a few thoughts here for reference later.

Hi All. Just a quick post - I forgot to mention that I'm in Northern Nowhere this week. So, like two weeks ago, if administration is slow, it's because I can't get to the internet. :P

I just wanted to warn all those interested that admining will likely be slower than usual this weekend. I have to make a trip to the middle of nowhere. The only internet connection I'm likely to have will be in my hotel room. Even there, I'm rather worried that the connection will be so awful that I won't be able to handle anything but the simplest tasks.

To those who are considering Erlang and Erlyweb as a framework for their website: just go for it.

Hello Rioters! I realized there was a lot more I wanted to say about developing BeerRiot, enjoying beer, and other things, none of which quite fit under the category "news." So, I've set up this blog as an outlet for those things.
