I am a software programmer working at RealVNC with many interests including singing, and am a Christian. Many of my friends remember me as a Part III mathematician at Peterhouse. Find out more or contact me!
The Gospel Coalition’s latest issue of Themelios is out, with another great spread of articles. Those I have read so far are great, and there are more on the theme of Ancient Near East history.
I point out this article because it relates to my post of a few days ago on local files.
Daniel has just released the first beta of his GSoC project
A compendium and listing of all the resources of design minimalism for the web
What it says on the tin. News of the day for me with Fx is discovering and working with XUL applications. Pretty awesome.
An outrageously funny series of emails. Far be it for me to participate in all this funny ‘viral’ stuff nor exchange trivial links, but this is rather too good not to pass on.
I spotted this the other day; by some online scanning it looks to be the essential reference I need for Elizabethan poetry.
I have been testing the pre-builds for a while now, but the beta has finally arrived. Grab it now! Partial list of improvements at http://hacks.mozilla.org/2010/07/firefox-4-beta-1-is-here-whats-in-it-for-web-developers/
I suddenly see a rush of these excellent articles in my news feed covering inerrancy. Today we have 2 Peter to ponder. Perhaps I will re-read Fundamentalism and the Word of God (Packer) to try and grow some warmth and friendliness in my approach to the doctrine before confronting this again in freshers’ week.
Great spot! Colleges and tours have a particular opportunity here.
I would like to add a little comment here to Tim’s great affirmation today of the centrality of the bible, in order to signal my intention to whip together some pensees I have been having about how to deal with fallibilists. How do we talk to a Christian who does not accept the bible as true? Can we even treat them as Christians? These are hard, I will do some extra thinking and reading to augment my points before making a post out of it.
I first came across this quotation on UCCF Forum last year; Tim’s series of posts over the last week has really whetted my appetite for more Bonhoeffer, and now I reckon I will actually get down to studying his important work.
Yikes! This is fairly bad news to me. I am rather worried about Google moving further into another market. This really makes sense for them, but I am amazed the American OFT equivalent could allow this.
A very interesting new advance. Google as ever has the power to make things change if they push it. There are enough Chrome browsers for techies to have real fun with this.
Generally on the pessimistic side, but points out a number of real problems. Given lack of H.264 Main implementation, especially in hardware, a lot of devs’ gripes are not actually relevant for the consumer.
