Comments work.
I turned off the TypeKey features. They were causing some problems. We’ll see how this goes—my goal is to avoid blog-spammers while allowing comments.

Variations on burying our dead
I am fascinated by the variation in what different groups of people have done with their dead over the years. Generally, in the U.S. we think of burying our dead or cremating them. I started thinking about this again because of an article I read from the Washington Post, which closed with the idea that…

I’m corn intolerant
Isn’t that a crazy thing to say? Anyway, I’ve had this reaction to some foods for years, and I’ve been trying to figure it out. Lots of different pizzas would cause problems for me, some pasta sauces and salsas. Other foods with some sort of sauce as well. So, I was thinking it might be…

OS 10.4.2 does not connect to Win 2000 server
As noted in the prior post, I had no problem connecting to a Windows 2000 Server shared volume with Active Directory authentication using Mac OS 10.2.8. When I tried doing the exact same process on Mac OS 10.4.2, I got a -36 error. Basically, it doesn’t work. So, there is some sort of conflict with…

Trouble with PHP5 and SQLite 3
After fiddling for a while with SQLite 3 and PHP 5.0.4 on the Mac PowerBook (OS 10.4.2) I’ve been using, I just saw that the current version of PHP does not include support for SQLite 3. Only for version 2. Dangit. I don’t think I’m going to bother installing SQLite 2 just so it can…

Coming soon? Dual-boot, Mac & Win
So all this talk about Apple moving its OS to x86 processors makes me think that at some point down the road, we’ll be able to buy a system from Apple (because they won’t officially permit the OS to run on just any computer – not that hacks aren’t already running) that has OS 10.5…

LAMP or WIMP?
I was walking on campus last week thinking about the acronym LAMP, which stands for Linux, Apache, MySQL, and PHP, and realized that if it was on a Windows server running IIS, it would be WIMP.
