I have just blown 4 – 5 hours on this “feature” of PHP and I thought someone else would care to know.
You can’t use numeric keys for sessions in php! Continue reading

This is very straight forward, but for those who think it might be complicated. Here is all it entails.
I was working on a Ruby on Rails project with Netbeans today when I went to fire up webbrick to test something in the app.
I immediately got an error like this

Life is too short not to have garbage collection …
– Awesome quote from a developer Jon Cooper who I was talking with at SxSWi.
He was talking about writing code in .NET and coding speed reliant modules in C++ or C.
This sesssion was pretty much standing room only and I came in 15 minutes late.
I didn’t get to really settle in and pay attention as I’d like, so I’ll have to view the slides later (I’ll link to them because they were really frickin’ great)
This jumps around a bit, as I’m writing from memory.
Browsing is noticeably faster … and my life is now made exceedingly difficult trying to choose between FF3, Opera 9.50 and Webkit …
And now Firefox 3 beta 4 also now scores a 67 on Acid 3.
Still behind the Webkit nightlies though

Today was terrible … the weather was nasty (cold and rainy) and I forgot my badge at home.But one of the more interesting panels was the Design Eye for the South By.
In it a group of designers, got together to redesign the current SxSW website. I really loved the concept they came up with, which was to personalize the site for each user and throw in a social networking component to it, sounds cliche but read on … Continue reading
Sitting in the 37 signals presentation. They’re going to tell us about the lessons they’ve learned over 10 years being in business.
I’d guesstimate about 1000 – 3000+ people in the auditorium.
Here’s what they say … Continue reading
Woohoo!! First full day of SxSWi.
Missed the morning sessions but got in to see a sneak peak of Expression Engine 2.0 (latest version 1.6).
Its hard to describe, but version 2.0 is amazing, almost everything has some kind of neat little effect on it. Things seem to be organized in a very different (but seemingly more intuitive) way from most other CMS’s. And I mention that it looks gorgeous … completely web 2.0’ed out.
I’ve never been a fan of Joomla, but it looks like the folks from Ellislabs have a winner on their hands.
Its that good.
No word when it’ll be out though.
I am a huge fan of Safari and Webkit … what it lacks in cool features, it more than makes up for in blazing fast speed and javascript performance.
When the Microsoft released a beta for IE8, I was prompted to run the Acid3 test on the browsers I had on my system.
Here are the results I got on my windows box, testing all the installed browsers against Acid 3 Continue reading
Segoe UI.
How do I know this and why am I posting it? Read on … Continue reading
Microsoft is definitely trying hard to keep pace with Firefox, Opera and Safari.
I blogged a little while ago about the small update of IE’s javascript engine from 5.6 to 5.7.
As I was re-reading that post, I realized that it might be helpful to know what version of Internet Explorer’s JScript you were running. Continue reading
