What am I looking at, exactly?

Hopefully a bundle of useful things I've written, stolen, imagined or plagiarised. They're neatly arranged into categories like:

• Articles about software desgin, like Abstraction: The Importance Of Hiding Stuff and Wrapping An OO module in a procedural API using Exporter::Simple.
• Rants like Dear Internet: Take the reset buttons off your damn forms.
• Haphazard collections of helpful code snippits like Examples of using dispatch tables in perl and Clingy Lexicals: Closures in perl.
• Public itch scratching, like those in rtpaste:-Paste-to-and-from-Request-Tracker-tickets and Announcing putty_shortcut_sync.pl: Create Shortcuts to PuTTY hosts.
• hilerious spelling errors and documents edited after they've been proof read.

The initial post from when I first set out:

Another blog, great...

Yeah, well. I have found a bundle of writings in my assorted homedirs over many boxen and scp 'ed archives in /home/home/home/home/f00li5h from old old homedirs.

I figure that some of these things may be interesting, hopefully in one of the categories.

I hope to be able to share something helpful, interesting or at minimum something neat with you.

HOWTOs and assorted technical things.

Some of the things I have found are just chunks of code, but from them there are handy hints, things that I have one to work round limitations of a language, or exciting little things that I have written that entertain me...

Things that I have learnt from neat languages, as going through tutorials, textbooks and the likes

Ideas, designs and problems!

Sometimes I find myself on a $public_transport , with an idea buzzing about in my head design of software, user interface, or objects...

Some structures seem to solve interesting problems, interesting problems are more trixy to solve...

There are ever so many interesting things to do, and they are all much more fun than doing whatever task it is that I am supposed to do

Hopefully intelligent discussions.

... on the topic of arts, philosophy, programming practices, photography, cartoons, and any other things that I find interesting to talk about...

Memes and other such online silliness.

It seems unlikely that I will be able to have any kind of public document store without posting memes in it, I'm sure everyone expects this.

It is likely these will have very short urls, so i can post them on IRC or IM
