The Funky Clock
We have a problem in our house. The youngest has a habit of waking the whole house at a time that is not pleasing to the rest of us. We put a clock in his room, but that didn’t help much because the monster child can’t read yet. As with everything I decided a technological …
DeltaSync decompression progress
After quite some time I finally have some code that seems to decompress the message data returned from Windows Live via the DeltaSync protocol. The code is AWFUL, but the results are looking pretty good.

lisp has invaded my brain
I had my first dream in lisp last night. I’ve been reading Land Of Lisp (and a couple of other lispy books) and it seems to be sinking in 🙂 The dream involved building physical matter out of lisp data structures. Very odd!
Bob Lives!
After a couple of false starts with dead voltage regulators, Bob (my daughter named it) the PIC based ethernet device lives in a more permanent incarnation. Bob is made from bits and pieces I had around the place (I now have several very dead network hubs). The budget for the project was zero 😉 My …
What I’ve been up to lately
I’ve been really busy recently and have not had much time to work on my side projects. One that I’ve been working on off and on for some time is a networked PIC micro-controller. This morning I finally got it responding to ICMP echo request (ping) 🙂 The next thing I need to do is …
A little further with the decompression routine
I’ve gotten just a little bit further with the decompression code 🙂 X-Message-Delivery: Vj0xLjE7dXM9MDtsPTA7YT0wO0Q9MTtTQ0w9MA== X-Message-Status: n:0 X-SID-PRA: Daniel Parnell <me@danielparnell.com> X-Message-Info: JGTYoYF78jHVrAq/T4xfKLLpTvwPwE0t6g/vyq6tyzbqln5iNnXwcSMg41wQCSulCxd5N8UB57Lq6un/ug7i0YsGX30yo+pm Received: from randymail-a4.g.dreamhost.com ([208.97.132.207]) by bay0-mc8-f11.bay0.hotmail.com with Microsoft SMTPSVC(6.0.3790.2668); Thu, 29 Jan 2009 16:06:38 -0800 Received: from 192-168-1-101.tpgi.com.au (60-241-72-192.static.tpgi.com.au [60.241.72.192]) (using TLSv1 with cipher AES128-SHA (128/128 bits)) (No client certificate requested) by randymail-a4.g.dreamhost.com …

More Windows Live decompression progress
I’ve not had much time recently to work on the decompression routines as family and work need to take priority over side projects… Last night I picked the code up again and had a bit more of a look. I found a couple of mistakes in the code I’d written and am now getting a …

I have just uploaded the next release of i48 for review
The latest version of i48 has been submitted review by Apple. This new version adds support for running the emulation at full speed (although that has some interesting effects on usability). I have also added theme support and included a theme based on Power48 provided by Fabrice Roux. Finally the buttons now highlight when they …
