- 10-Mar-2014Excellent Co-workers are Excellent.
Last Friday some code I wrote finally got battle tested and was found wanting (read: it was not very good). And because of deployment processes I needed a co-worker to deploy it. Each time a new build of the software deployed my co-worker used an exclamation that it was complete that was colorful. (5:49:10 PM)…

24-Jan-2012 Still Life from DayjobThe Chumby (Chumby Classic, Pearl Edition) is not really for work, but it should provide some entertainment for my co-workers. Which you may recall (unlikely, really) I won back in June 2008 at the L.A. Flash Users Group.

13-Dec-2008 Dayjob ViewOne of the perks of the current dayjob is a lovely view facing north toward the Hollywood Sign. I dug my week there.

Nice night, but chilly. I think I needed a sweater last night. I tried…

So over on the right hand side of the main page of artlung.com there I include a statement about when I’ll be available for work, and that just changed again. I am continuing on with Sierra for another two months while we continue an ongoing project. It’s always simpler to renew something than it is…

21-Nov-2007 Rock BandOne of the funner side effects of working for a game company is that new games tend to get bought on the date of release. To that end, yesterday there was a copy of Rock Band in the office. Because of my previous experience (documented by Leah here) playing SingStar and Karaoke Revolution I was…
