This time it’s cave art in the British Museum. It’s now on display at the Outside Institute. (Last time it was New York)

The ugly web problem

Posted at 7:41am on Sunday, May 22nd, 2005

And how to solve it using God’s own language… I’m a new convert to python, primarily for some very specific reasons (namely zope and plone, software I’ve been recommending for years but have never used personally), but as yet I haven’t managed to find a simple solution to something like offmessage. PHP may be ugly, but it handles the web perfectly and offmessage.com took me about 8 hours to build. Starting from scratch in python has brought me to a stand still, not for the lack of syntax or skill, but the lack of an obvious web framework to serve my content through. Even the hardcore can’t give me a straight answer.

I await the results of the cook off with interest and shall be reading the blog avidly.

Either I’m particularly slow today, or this is harder than it first looks.

Post office

So. How much of the Royal Mail’s return to profit is down to ebay I wonder? I know I’ve used the postal service more times since my ebay addiction began than I had in the 10 years previously….

Phishing

Posted at 7:41pm on Wednesday, May 18th, 2005

UK Honeynet have published their first white paper - Know Your Enemy: Phishing. Bit of a shock to find it front page of El Reg and riding high on populicious, given that David only left my current employer 2 months ago to take this work more seriously - I thought it would take him a bit longer than this to get going! (For those seriously interested he’s also been working on the new Honeywall CD that was released today as well)
