		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve not been posting on this WordPress blog very often this past year.  That&#8217;s despite actually doing more programming-related explorations than I had in a long time.  One of the key reasons is because I found more &#8220;instant gratification&#8221; (and sometimes &#8220;instant frustration&#8221;) by participating in the online question-and-answer site StackOverflow.
Like Wikipedia, StackOverflow [...]]]></description>

Yet I&#8217;ll shamefully admit that my two computers are an iMac running OS/X and a Acer running Windows 7.  Of course, nearly all of my projects are undertaken in Linux virtual machines which I [...]]]></description>

But I hope to return to recreational programming and writing articles about it soon enough!

		<description><![CDATA[There was an interesting question on the User Interface discussion board at StackExchange.  It regarded how to make an interface for letting a user enter numeric ranges, and then specify a label for anything that falls in that range.
A real-world example might be how percentages are turned into letter grades, such as 97-100 for [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There is a community driven art project in Jacksonville Florida, called Imagination Squared.  The idea was to have hundreds of members of the local artist community each contribute a small square that they&#8217;d decorated.  The squares were all a standardized size, and they were all tiled together in an art installation.

Because I&#8217;ve thought about that question lately I glossed over that they were asking specifically about applications of casting away volatile&#8230;which I didn&#8217;t even know you could use const_cast to do!
So I learned something.  But I thought the answer I [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Today I attended the fantastic event BIL.  It is an &#8220;un-conference&#8221;, and was originally conceived as populist way of crashing/synergizing with the event known as TED.  
(Though TED is awesome at spreading great ideas across the web, the speakers are by invite-only&#8230;and uninvited people must pay thousands of dollars to attend!!)

		<description><![CDATA[UPDATE: I&#8217;ve uploaded a preliminary proof-of-concept Rebmu implementation to GitHub.  See http://hostilefork.com/rebmu/ for details.

StackOverflow has a tag for so-called &#8220;Code Golf&#8221;, which has the goal of attempting to perform a programming task with a program that has a minimum number of ASCII characters.
There are several loopholes:
