My father and I took a vacation together to Washington D.C. last week. Lots of good food, beer, and cigars. I maintained a little photo blog of it here.

Censorship
A Chinese friend of mine took offense when I told him that his government uses Internet censorship to try to rewrite history. He said that you couldn’t do such a thing.
Well, here’s the proof:
Search for “tiananmen” on Google Images US servers and on Chinese servers:
US China
Why two servers?
So, I’m reading a blog post this morning by an ex-Apple employee talking about working in AppleCare support, and while most of it is just a rant, one part of it really spoke to me. I’m going to be without my computer for a week?! It’s a business critical machine! I can’t be without it!…If something [...]
esXpress
Finally…we launched the official stable release of esXpress today. Go get it!
Qumana?
Hmm, just possibly, Qumana doesn’t suck.
Let’s see if this works right and I actually get a big scary image on the left.

Perl + iTunes
The stereo in my car can play mp3 CD’s and use the id3 info in the files to display the artist/title/etc. I decided to grab a bunch of mp3’s from my iTunes library and burn them to CD for listening on my long work commute. The CD played perfectly, but everything was showing [...]
esXpress
Okay, it’s blatant astroturfing, but I don’t care. The company I work for is about to release our new backup product for VMware ESX Server, and it is pretty bad-ass if I do say so myself.
