Stuff Michael Meeks is doing
|
|
This is my (in)activity log. You might like to visit my employer
Novell which is an amazing company, and also
Dell who in days of yore provided me with a
free laptop for Gnome development / conferences.
Also if you have the time to read this sort of stuff you could enlighten
yourself by going to Unraveling Wittgenstein's net or if
you are feeling objectionable perhaps here.

- Up extremely late; to work at 2.00pm. I thought that
was bad until Federico turned up at 6.00pm. Repented of my extremely
evil plan, my unutterably evil plan is still on the boil though. How
do you become an infamous household name ? Can you keep a secret ?
... so can I.
- Started on the XML descriptions of menu / dock / status
/ toolbar and the merging logic; interesting problems.
- Dinner with the guys at a nice Chinese place located by
Anna I think. It turns out Anna also runs a porn site which is a
great shame, she seemed like such an attractive girl at first
encounter.
- Back to the office, more hacking. Had to explain to Arik
why I didn't have to have seen a film to not want to see it. After
arguing it through very, very slowly using minimal joined up thinking
he still refused to conceed that the video box was being unfair.
Hacked instead of watching 'The Last Temptations of Christ' or
somesuch trash.
- Went to sit downstairs where it was quieter; couch
hacking is the future. Dwarfed by boxes of marketing bumph.
- After some fun hacking got some simple xml trees to
override and re-instate nicely, at least; apparently.
In case it's not painfully obvious: the reflections reflected here are my
own; mine, all mine ! and don't reflect the views of Novell, The
Lithuanian Gov't or Arnold Schwarzenegger. It's also important to
realise that I'm not in on the Swedish Conspiracy.
Occasionally people ask for formal photos for conferences,
bio.
or fun.
