I ordered a book called "Berkeley Yacc" in hopes that I can understand how
yacc works better because the other book isn't doing it for me. Well
yesterday I got it. 100 pages of wikipedia printed. 2 pages covering the
story behind yacc but no internal explanations. Now because the book has
Unix and OpenBSD mentioned in it I'm gonna keep it but it's not worth
33 euros! Perhaps 6.95 or such. I left a "rezension" on amazon.de regarding
this with the title "glad to put money in your pocketses" or something.
Since there is a robots.txt file protecting this blog you won't be able
to google my disappointment but I felt I needed to let it off my chest.

EFnet.XS4ALL.NL has K-lined Hetzner.de IP's
April 8th, 2013
I got this message on my IRC window:
[16:50:23] :efnet.xs4all.nl 465 pjp :You are banned from this server- heztner.de
are no longer welcome on efnet.xs4all.nl, due to leaking information to kiddies
. Fuck right off, hetzner. (2013/4/8 14.50)(0x0d)
[16:50:23] :pjp!~pjp@trojan.solarscale.de QUIT :Connection closed(0x0d)
[16:50:23] ERROR :Closing Link: trojan.solarscale.de (Connection closed)(0x0d)
I do hope both parties will come to an agreement to once again let me IRC
through hetzner. Pretty sick by xs4all to put pressure on hetzner this way
though.

I'm still anti-nuclear
April 2nd, 2013
.. and I'd like to say that I'd like to see a nuclear free a) Germany ,
b) Europe , c) Planet. Although c is much harder to achieve than a or b, I
still want to let people know that I support german dismemberment of nuclear
power plants. We can do it without these power plants I'm sure of it.

Goodbye Source!
April 1st, 2013
A large company's spokesman has approached me and offered 100,000 dollars for
my source code found here
. I'm going to buy a tablet with that money, and possibly getting rid of
all my computers that have a keyboard.

My sorta first ruby program
March 30th, 2013
I was watching "the bourne identity" last night and during the breaks I
programmed on my first ruby program, here it is:
#!/usr/local/bin/ruby -w
#
# this program reads from argv and takes a name argument it then says hello
#
if ARGV.size == 1
input = ARGV[0]
else
exit 1
end
#
# ok we got a name lets do something with it
#
if input == "peter"
puts "hello peter, nice of you to come back to me"
elsif input == "jason"
puts "mr bourne, you're still in paris?"
else
puts "hello " + input + ", how are you?"
end
#Process.kill("ABRT", Process.pid)
exit 0
A friendly person in an efnet channel made a 1 liner out of this:
#!/usr/local/bin/ruby -w
puts ({ "peter" => "nice of you to come back to me peter", \
"jason" => "still in paris mr bourne?" })[ARGV.shift]
Process.kill("ABRT", Process.pid)
I later added the SIGABRT's in order to look at the size of the memory image
and his has a larger memory footprint than mine. I guess size is misleading.

OpenBSD has released it's 5.3 Song
March 25th, 2013
OpenBSD the OS that strives for best security has released it's most recent
media, the 5.3 song. They
are also doing pre-orders for the 5.3 release at
OpenBSD.org. If you've been
using OpenBSD and downloading it from the Internet, consider buying a copy
once in a while. It makes all the difference.

Switched emea to FreeBSD
March 24th, 2013
I have switched my EMEA vps to FreeBSD. It took all day as I had to
configure jails in it, but I think I'm mostly done. I'm just watching
the 1st backup of it go through to my online storage.

First day of Spring! Goodbye Winter!
March 20th, 2013
Just like the Hooray! that I let out in 2011, I'm very excited that this winter is
gone. I'm hoping we get blue skies this spring as well. BTW that link when
you click it has a picture with an Analemma on it. I made a mistake with the
equinoxes they are in fact further down and not at the joint of the figure
eight. Oh well, I can't always have correct astronomy, astronomy is a learn
cycle, based on wrong assumptions and proofs (although I didn't proof the
analemma I just read about it in a astronomy magazine, which proofed me wrong).
