Old Python code – Mp3 utilities

As I have been saying, I have been looking around to dig up code I have written and I actually found some mp3 utility code I had written, it is certainly not finished or even code I would probably write right now(or even particularly good) but its code I wrote a couple of years ago [...]

Code WTF: Check Ethernet Address

So I guess I am daring, but not many software developers/programmers would publicly disparage their code like I am about to do. I was looking at some code I wrote about 3.5 years ago when I was first learning python during a summer job in the computer science department at my University and this is [...]

Why is the Jython Website so ugly?

I know this might be a shocker, but I love python! Don’t get me wrong, I don’t discriminate against languages. I will use whatever language I feel is best for the job at hand, I have been known to use Java, C, C++, C#, Bash scripting, python and even VB.NET(..shhh don’t tell anyone). Programming [...]

In the comments Jason Gedge(a very smart man I might add) mentioned that I should probably store code snippets as XML and then use XSL/XSLT to do the markup for the syntax highlighting. This is [...]

Code Snippets? I’ll give you code snippets!

Well I actually won’t give you code snippets, but I will give you the ability to store and organize them.
Storing code snippets is not the worlds greatest unconquered problem or anything like that, however that being said I have tried much of the software out there for storing code snippets and I still feel like [...]

I love django

I have been trying out Django a little bit the last few days and I am loving it. I will attribute that in no small part to my love of python, however, getting a test project going with Django was a breeze, using the Models to set up the database and its relations was easy [...]

Woops…or how I messed up my computer…

So I have really been pushing to get some posts going here, but it seems like every time I have the opportunity to get something going something else comes up. I have 2 posts now in the pipe, just need to be edited and then they are good to go. That being said, I messed [...]
