wrdf

This ajax app, wrdf, lets you memorize the vocabulary you've stored as tagged bookmarks at delicious.com.

localcast

This is an obsolete program that effectively allows you to continue interrupted downloads of podcasts for iTunes without restarting from the beginning. It is also a nice alternative to a non-GUI podcatcher like bashpodder. There is also a picture of a tiger.

Buy-Only Rebalancing

This investment system is cheap and easy to use but shares the principal advantages of many professionally managed funds.

quotes

These are quotes that I liked, diskliked, or just thought worth collecting.

drinks

These are drinks that I thought worth collecting.

code

code I've written.

If you like emacs you can peruse the .emacs and .gnus files that I use.

papers

Some documents I wrote.

TeX

I like TeX, a completed program.

Most programs keep adding features until nobody wants them anymore. Donald E. Knuth created TeX decades ago in order to have a program good enough to typeset his master work, The Art of Computer Programming. Because Knuth designed TeX to be used via a language, many people have been able to build upon his work. I don't think there's any better software for creating beautifully printed documents using a computer.

Most people know TeX through LaTeX. It is built on TeX, but you can use TeX all by itself (really, you're using the "plain" macropackage instead of the latex macropackage), or you can use it via alternatives to LaTeX, like ConTeXt.

C89

I mirrored a C89 draft here for historical purposes.

ssh port forwarding
