		<title>TIL: Run redsn0w in XP SP3 compat.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Jailbreaking my old iPhone hangs partway through unless you run in XP SP3 mode. I also ran as admin, just for grins. (Yep, taking a page from The Hanselman here, this is not so much UI as it&#8217;s so I can search my external brain later.)]]></description>

		<title>TIL: Calling MSBuild with arguments from PSake</title>
		<description><![CDATA[If you want to call msbuild with arguments from psake without getting errors like &#8220;MSB1008: Only one project can be specified&#8221;, you&#8217;ll have to do some quoting: exec &#123;msbuild &#34;/verbosity:quiet&#34; &#34;/p:WarningLevel=4;OutDir=$build\\&#34; &#34;/t:Clean,Build&#34; MySolution.sln &#125;]]></description>

		<title>TIL: Powershell ISE, Text Encoding, and Mercurial.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[By default, PowerShell ISE uses a 16-bit Unicode text encoding, if you let it create your script. Mercurial, specifically TortoiseHg, says a file is binary if it contains any NUL bytes. ASCII-compatible text, encoded as UTF-16, or a variant thereof, will contain *plenty* of NUL bytes for Mercurial to find, thus you can&#8217;t see diffs [...]]]></description>

		<title>Half-the-Man: Day 6</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Weight this morning: 328.6 Calories eaten: 1633 Calories burned: 2807 (!) Part of home ownership is yard ownership. We spent the day removing an old barbed wire fence and clearing brush around an old fence along the back of the property. I&#8217;m not convinced that I actually burned 2807 calories, but that&#8217;s what my &#8220;Lose [...]]]></description>

		<title>The &#8220;Half the Man&#8221; Project: Week 1</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Initial weight on Monday: 335 lbs (!) Target weight: ~170 lbs (!!) Yep. It&#8217;s that bad. The good news is that water weight changes pretty quickly, which makes the first few days of any diet/exercise lifestyle change nice and productive. Today&#8217;s Weight: 327.4 lbs Total Lost So Far: 7.6 lbs Amount to Lose: 157.4 lbs]]></description>

		<title>Walking to Work, Day 1: SUCCESS!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Got inspired by www.urbanranger.com yesterday, so I walked to work today. Took about 40 minutes, but traffic was about as favorable as I can imagine it being. Going home will be a bit more interesting, though, might take about an hour. There&#8217;s an annoyingly narrow road that is both A) the fastest route and B) [...]]]></description>

		<title>Serving Mercurial from Windows, Part 2: Maybe I don&#8217;t have to after all&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Perhaps this is a bit short-sighted of me, but it looks like we could actually make use of network shares to get to repositories on other machines. A &#8220;developers&#8221; share is already set up on our machines, and everybody knows how to get to it from project machines. If this is a viable solution, I [...]]]></description>

		<title>Serving Mercurial from Windows, Part 1: Finding LightTPD</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This may seem simple and/or obvious, but LightTPD for Windows can be had at http://en.wlmp-project.net/. I&#8217;m currently trying just the server package, called &#8220;LightTPD for Windows&#8221; on the downloads page. They also have a WLMP Webserver Package that has other stuff built in. I don&#8217;t think I&#8217;ll need MySQL and such, but hey, if I [...]]]></description>

		<title>Serving Mercurial from Windows, Part 0</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Ok, I&#8217;ve drunk the distributed source code control kool-aid. I&#8217;m convinced. I want it. Unfortunately, for various reasons, if I want to use it at work right now, it has to run on Windows. That is, I need to be able to *serve* the repositories from Windows. I don&#8217;t have the luxury of slapping a [...]]]></description>

		<title>Well, this is a pleasant surprise&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[If you&#8217;ve been waiting (as I have) to install Linux on a machine, especially a laptop, run, don&#8217;t walk, to www.ubuntu.com and give the Hardy Heron (8.04) a try. For the last 3-4 years I&#8217;ve been trying each release, waiting for one that would work &#8220;well enough&#8221; on my Acer Aspire 5672 WLMi. By &#8220;well [...]]]></description>
