The Black Widow
Monday, June 7th, 2004Found an excellent specimen of the female Black Widow today. Big one too - about 1.5 inches long. The bastard was hiding right under my hot tub lid.
Not having had any experience with spiders I took a moment to figure out how to kill it for sure, without having it run away and hide. These things are apparently shy, and since it was now hiding tucked underneath the lid, I decided to go with a tool that happened to be handy - my long lighter for the BBQ. Perfect long flame grilling the poor sap. Bad spider, no donut.
Toasted Black Widow anyone?

Friday, June 4th, 2004Uncrackable, eh?
Friday, June 4th, 2004If there’s a key, there’s a crack. It may take forever, but sometimes you get lucky…
Chad’s post reminds me of a friend of mine. Super expensive computer equipment at this company. State of the art security to get in through the door.
Just one problem… Computer rooms like these are raised off the floor, with a crawl space underneath. The floor is made out of a bunch of tiles - some of them loose.
Fundamentals of cracking puzzles…
CrossKylix beta
Thursday, June 3rd, 2004Simon Kissel just posted this in kylix.non-tech:
I’m about to release CrossKylix, a free (as in beer and speech) toolkit to integrate the Kylix compiler into the Delphi Windows IDE.
This project was created for people who wish to develop cross-platform web/server/middleware applications with Delphi. Up until now doing this required you to have a seperate Linux installation (either on a dedicated box or inside VMWare) to recompile your project for the Linux platform. With CrossKylix this is no longer needed - you are able to build your project using the Kylix compiler from directly inside your Windows Delphi IDE, without the requirement of a Linux system.
After a few nights of coding, the project is mostly finished now and probably will be released this weekend.
I would be nice to have a few betatesters now to check if there are any compatibility problems I haven’t thought about etc.
Requirements for Beta-Testers:
- Delphi 6 or 7 - Windows 2000 or XP - Kylix 3 (either installed or Installation CD). Other Kylix versions are welcome for testing, too.
The testers should be at least be a bit skilled in Kylix development, so they are able to give decent bug reports.
If you are interested, please drop me a mail [kissel at computerman dot de] , and I’ll send you the current beta.
Thanks, Simon
WooHoo!
