Google ads

I've decided to show Google ads on shebang.at. This is more an experiment to see how well it goes, I don't expect to get much money from it, however the idea is that I can maybe someday finance the server I'm renting through those ads.

I'm personally very annoyed by ads on the net, so I'm not taking this lightly. If you think the ads are inappropriate please let me know, if enough people think so I will remove them.

I & D - part 2

One thing I've learned through having a blog is that I really suck at having a blog. Writing an article takes more time than I thought it would take, and there's a lot of interesting stuff to do besides writing a blog entry.

Anyway, I'll dive straight into part 2 and I'll talk a bit about bindings. This is a surprisingly relevant topic if you want to work with D.(more ...)

A quick update on where boxen is going

It's been a long time since I've released anything. After the release of 0.1.0 I took a couple of weeks "off" from the project, but I've already started working on the 0.2 branch. It will take some time, though, until I will have something usable again. (more ...)

Release: boxen 0.1.0

I'm glad to announce that I've just uploaded the first stable release of boxen! Windows Installer and all! (more ...)

Release: boxen 0.1-beta2

It's now nearly exactly 2 years ago that I started with this project and I'm nearly ready for the first stable release. This release, however, is another beta that contains a lot of bugfixes and a small surprise. (more ...)

The critic

I think of myself as a fairly competent programmer. I'm doing this for a long time now, and writing code is the thing I think I can do best. And I really, really like doing it.

But it's easy to say things like that in public. Sure, I'm a great programmer. I can say that all day. But how do I really rate my skills? Am I actually that kind to myself in - say - the comments I make in my code? Well - let's dive in and find out! (more ...)

I & D - part 1

I wanted to do this for a long time now, and since there's been a bit of interest in this I'm finally doing it: I'm writing a few lines about my experiences with writing a desktop application in the D programming language. (more ...)

Release: boxen 0.1-beta1

Next beta! This one brings a couple of bugfixes and improvements. This is also the last version before the first "actual" release where I've done major internal changes (unless I run into any major problems). (more ...)

Site update

Updating Drupal is far out of my comfort zone. Still, it's necessary to do it and a rainy sunday afternoon is the perfect time for this. (more ...)

Release: boxen 0.1-beta0

The first beta is here! It's 0.1-beta0, which isn't really logical after 0.0, but ... version numbers are pretty arbitrary anyway. So ... what does the label "beta" actually mean? (more ...)
