Twenty questions

Thursday, April 28th, 2005

We had a lot of fun at work today, just trying to beat the AI of Twenty Questions. Quite easy actually, but very amazing the first time you try it.

Westarena

Wednesday, April 20th, 2005

A part ça, j’en peux plus: j’ai trop hâte d’aller glander à la Westarena ce weekend, “la plus grande LAN de l’Ouest” disent-ils. Surtout depuis que je viens de lire qu’il y aura un Drum Mania et un Guitar Freaks direct importés du Japon \o/, ainsi qu’un stand karaoké :) A part ça on va […]

Friday, April 15th, 2005

I’ve updated the latest dju-sources patchset to include a bug fix for ALPS touchpads (now fast double-tapping works) and Inotify-0.22-2. I haven’t bumped the revision since it’s still -ck4.

Today, as I was looking at the PCRE manual, I found the solution: the ? character following the * quantifier makes the latter ungreedy. Cool. As a result, I can […]

Le pape est mort, vive WordPress!

Tuesday, April 5th, 2005

Et oui, j’ai remplacé le DotClear par un WordPress, rien que pour les multi-catégories et les beaux URIs. Ce ne fut pas une partie de plaisir, la conversion, moitié à la main, moitié avec une pauvre moulinette en PHP, n’aura pas été aisée. Prochaine étape: le thème et les plugins!
