Mobile phone for the blind

POSTED BY niklas on Nov 23 under General

My daily RSS feed brought me an article on a mobile phone for the blind, which I thought was neat. I’d love to hear how these things work in reality as I figured voice would always be to much hassle and it would interface with the user through something they could read

Yawn…

I must admit I’m dead tired today. I think perhaps I’m getting the cold everyone here at the con seems to have had. Only thing is I had it last week. Oh well, the amount of heat I’m producing will save me the heating bill.
Anyways, been a Good Boy(tm) and practised my hours [...]

Ingeborg in Jyske Vestkyst

OK, a little old, but still. This article came in our local newspaper about Ingeborg becoming young musician of the year in Norway. Congrats again

Harpsichord tuning

POSTED BY niklas on Nov 20 under General

Monday evening I had my first real stab at tuning a harpsichord. I’d been given an introduction by Jan the week before, and now was my chance to try it out (he’d come and tune it later as he always tunes it monday evening or tuesday morning). It actually went surprisingly well. Lots of it [...]

Well, I figured I might as well try a post with Weblog Poster. It sais it can handle the Blogger API, so let’s check out right away if it can handle newlines.
That was a new line.

Using w.bloggar

POSTED BY niklas on Nov 16 under General

Trying out all these blog-programs turns out to be quite an experience.
And, I’m learning heaps of how lots of people prefer writing their java
programs. My todo-list is growing by the minute.
So, just to see what
this progam was like I fired up Windows and installed w.bloggar. My
main objection to w.bloggar and every other client I’ve used [...]

Done

POSTED BY niklas on Nov 14 under General

Whew,
the log script just finished now. And all looks well.
So, now I have to make sure Tomcat fires up all right all the time and
that the cat rebooting (don’t you just love that idea? ) works all
right for users tweaking their system. Then I’ll hopefully have time
for the dummynet implementation. [...]

Changes

POSTED BY niklas on Nov 14 under General

A couple of jar-files look like being in conflict. Strange, as I have
no idea why someone would dist java.util-jars. Anyways, got that
cleaned up and our main apps are purring nicely again.
The templates for our statistics aren’t applied correctly. I imagine
there are some path conflicts there. Applied some logging yesterday,
time to investigate…. hmm… classpath is incorrect. [...]

Blog hacking

POSTED BY niklas on Nov 14 under General

I’ve been toying around a bit with my blog, just to see how it works
and to provoke the code a bit to get more experience with managing
webapps. So far, things seem to be working well. I just need the URL
changed into something a bit nicer looking.

Tracking a JUnit posting

POSTED BY niklas on Nov 14 under General

I like unit testing, but this guy refers to an article
that I think
perhaps has misunderstood a little bit. Testing the internals of a
component doesn’t give much meaning to me. Oh well, shan’t be picky,
especially since this post was mainly to try out trackback.

First post

POSTED BY niklas on Nov 14 under General

Hey all,
this is really the first Roller blog I’m ever running. It’s created mainly to try out webapps on our Tomcat server because our customers would like to deploy some, and it seems to have been working great.
