Creating a custom live CD with Slax

Creating a custom live CD with Slax 06/17/2005 06:46 PM
Live CDs can be useful for testing an operating system or performing special operations -- assuming there's a live CD distro that does what you need. Unfortunately, if you are running a special application, especially one you wrote yourself, no live CD will be tailored exactly to your needs. But creating you own live CD is easier than you might think, with Slax and its easy customization utility MySlax Creator.

using XKB 06/10/2004 03:27 AM
In most modern desktop environments there is a small applet that allows users to quickly switch between keyboard layouts when they need to type text in more than one language. However, there are situations where this solution is not quite satisfactory. The X Window System used on most Unix-like systems today uses X Keyboard Extension (XKB) for translating keystrokes into character codes. Thanks to XKB's flexibility, one can easily create custom keyboard layouts.

CSS Design: Custom Underlines

Most of us have experience creating "rounded" corners by erasing pixels. It's a rudimentary web design technique -- or so we always thought. But in the hands of Dan Cederholm, author of Web Standards Solutions, this seemingly simple technique paves the way for boxes and borders that can change sizes and colors at your whim.

Rounded CSS Corners

Rounded CSS Corners 07/27/2004 02:36 PM

In a perfect world, you'd never put anything in your HTML that defines the presentation of your page. You'd only use HTML for content, and allow the stylesheet to define the presentation. One of my few gripes with CSS is the inability to create a box with rounded corners. In general, CSS is pretty weak when it comes to defining custom borders. (How many drop shadow techniques could we kill if CSS allowed border images?).

I ran across several good examples today here and here of ways to make divs with rounded corners, although these same techniques could really be used to create whatever sort of custom border you like. Good articles to stick under the ol' developer hat for later.

AdSense and Borders

AdSense and Borders 04/01/2005 11:48 AM

If you have Google Adsense on your site, here is the best piece of advice I can give you: don't put borders around your ads. I had a border around my skyscraper banner on the right here, so it sat in its own little box.

A friend told me to take the border off. I figured it couldn't hurt to try it, so I made the border white, so it just fades into the background. Nothing else was changed. I did it in the middle of the month, so the first half was with the border, the second half without.

The result in terms of clickthrough rate?

With border: 1.62%
Without border: 2.76%

That's a seventy percent increase.

Klings's Korollaries 

Suits and Geeks is Arnold Kling's latest, and a complement to World of Ends.

Arnold lists Five Clues for Geeks:

Intermediaries add value Property is not evil Computer animation is not a killer application Bashing Microsoft does not make you smart Markets are not exploitative

Lots to talk about there.

A question 

So I've been talking to some companies here in Toronto, and a question has comed up for which I don't have a ready answer:

What companies blog?

Specifically, what companies maintain corporate blogs, either as home pages or as main features of their Web sites? I'm not in the best position to check, but maybe ya'll can help a little. It would be a good list to come up with in any case (if there isn't one already).

[Later...] Some answers have been coming in:

Macromedia has a bunch (see the list on the left) of blogging executives (e.g. Kevin Lynch, who writes helpfully about working at the company, among other things). Its site also has lots of product forums.

Jupiter Research, which links every analyst's weblog (there are eleven) from the home page. Jupiter also hosts ClickZ Weblog Business Strategies, a conference held in Boston this June. Dave, Davi d and other leading local bloggers will speak there. (How about more links in the brochure pages, hmm?)

Groove (though Ray seems to be awol... hope he gets back into the groove, pun intended).

Trellis (Dan blogs).

Starpoint (the home page is a blog).

Immunexa, which hasn't had a post since last November.

Still a pretty short list.

Other good news 

When I got back to my hotel room last night, the bellman had just deliverd my missing bag. It had been retained by Canadian Customs and delivered, oddly, by Fedex.

And the laptop has only crashed once this morning. I still miss the days when I could open a shell, run an uptime command and see that it's been going for weeks without a reboot. But the way things have been going lately, ten minutes is a miracle I can put to good use.

Happy Birthday, Mom! 

My mother is 90 years young today. She was born on March 13, 1913 into a Swedish family on the North Dakota prairie during the reign of Taft the Large.

Lots of people have issues with their mothers. I'm not one of them. When I woke up a few minutes ago, the first song in my mind was Paul Simon's Loves me Like a Rock. The second was Greg Brown's Cheapest Kind, which I heard once on A Prairie Home Companion. The chorus has stuck in my mind ever since:

But the love, the love, the love It was not the cheapest kind It was rich as, rich as rich as, rich as Any you could ever find

Mom has always been, and contintues to be, the richest source of love I have ever known. She's a human pipeline, running straight from God.

She's also smart as a whip, funny as a tickle and uncomplicated as a bowling ball. Her laugh can lift the darkest spirit.

As a kid she was so smart they put her ahead one grade. Friends called her "The Walking Dictionary." A couple years ago she heard me mention Google, and said "A Googol is an infinitely large number." That wasn't exactly right (it's a one followed by a hundred zeroes), but close enough. When my sister and I were kids she taught school (mostly third grade) in Maywood, New Jersey, our home town. She started teaching when she was eighteen in a one-room schoolhouse in North Dakota. Between those years she lived an adventurous life. Met my father (another adventurer) in Alaska during World War II.

We'll be throwing her a big party in North Carolina in a couple of weeks. Can't wait to be there.

[Later...] Mom just told me on the phone that she wasn't put ahead a grade, but rather put in first grade at age five. "My mother couldn't stand having me at home any more. I was too smart. But so were a bunch of other kids." Her best friend, Agatha, was one of those kids. They're still in touch. Mom has always called Agatha by her nickname, which is (no kidding) "Boogie."

Only the Shadow Knows

Only the Shadow Knows 01/03/2005 05:48 PM

« Careful, he's armed with punctuation and he knows how to use it! »

The first time I saw the black silhouette I flinched and momentarily panicked thinking that someone was behind me. After that, I merely thought it was creepy until I deigned to read the text on the wall next to him explaining the dot, the comma and the shadow man which made me think of it as an artifact of a time when any stupid idea with enough internet buzz could get funded. It is a reminder and warning of absurdity past, present and future. Even the blurb is so rich in hyperbole that it reads like one of the dot com era business plans.

The dot and the comma are small but very powerful tools. The dot is used to complete promises and judgments, by moving the comma you destroy and create. Both bring pleasure and sorrow, therefore it demands a special responsibility from their users. The dot and the comma are viewed in current society as the sun and the moon. The shadow man is the often invisible bearer of responsibility that makes things work. In the briefcase he carries his tools, the dot and the comma.

Who knew that punctuation could be transformed into celestial bodies after years of thinking they were the domain of the punctuation pedants? I noticed before Christmas that someone, we don't know who, viewed the post-modern man as an empty canvas begging for embellishment and gave him a cheshire grin, a sporty tie and mustanaamio in his briefcase with EZ-peel stickers. Sadly, they were removed but I agree that this empty void begs for flair as the dot and the comma at least light up thus giving them a purpose if not meaning. Perhaps a lightbulb should be added to the top of his head with a socket. He's like a naked Mr. Potato Head.

Weird books Amazon has recommended me lately:

• Kitchen Utensils: Names, Origins, and Definitions Through the Ages - Hmm...a book of American utensil porn 'through the ages'? Do 300 years count as 'ages' now?
• Mr. Skin's Skincyclopedia : The A-to-Z Guide to Finding Your Favorite Actresses Naked - What could possibly have given Amazon the idea that I need help finding naked pictures of any woman, much less actresses. This is work the male computer geek has already done for me. The guys at EMC had a couple terabytes of porn on the office symmetrix. It wasn't catalogued though.
• The Largest U.S. Cities Named after a Food: And Other Mind-Boggling Geography Lists from Around the World - Mind-Boggling? I wonder if there's a field guide to navel lint coming out soon for Amazon to recommend.

And I'm slowly catching up with my pre- and post-holiday email for those who might be waiting for me to reply as the wireless at home seems to be very tempermental. The photos from Tunisia will have to wait until the weekend since the colour film won't be back until Friday.

Shadow Ops: Red Mercury

Shadow Ops: Red Mercury 06/16/2004 04:46 PM

MATT GALLANT -- Atari shipped Shadow Ops: Red Mercury today for Xbox. Served up by developer Zombie Studios, the game is by all reckoning a generic one-man army FPS. Which isn't surprising, given that Zombie's last inspiration came from the generic one-man and one-woman army movie Ballistic: Ecks vs. Sever. Zombie was making a PS2 game based on the movie, but the project was cancelled when, in an unfortunate accident, the movie totally sucked.

Atari is pitching the game as an "interactive blockbuster", with a modern military thriller storyline involving a trans-continental hunt for a stolen nuclear device. This blockbuster is PG-13, or in videogame parlance, T for Teen, which means no blood and lots of explosions.
