Sybase releases ASE Express for Linux

Posted on September 9, 2004 by bkjones

See more at the Sybase site. This could be cool. I used to work for Sybase as a consulting DBA (among other things). I haven’t seen a real database since then, mainly because I now work in academia where database needs don’t really warrant spending thousands of dollars on database software. We get by just…

Redhat and other vendor certification

Posted on September 8, 2004 by bkjones

I’ll note a disclaimer which is that I’m a RHCT. I’ve prepared for other certifications that I never sat for, from Sun, Checkpoint and others. So I have some idea how certification sorta works. I don’t so much have a problem with application-specific certifications like CheckPoint or SQL Server. I also don’t have a problem…

Desktop PC Vendors :-(

Posted on September 7, 2004 by bkjones

I’m really ticked off right now. I really do NOT want to build my next computer. It’s a hassle just to keep up with which RAM goes with which front-side bus speed, and which processor goes on which motherboards, etc., etc. “So why not just buy one from Dell, HP, IBM or Gateway?” you ask….

Posted on September 7, 2004 by bkjones

As promised, I’ve put together some pics of the trials of laying a hardwood floor on your own. If you just wanna see a couple of quick pics of where I’m at now, just scroll down past the pictures of the atrocities I’ve faced, and the good pics are toward the bottom. Here’s the link….

The Era of the Great Vibrating Bathroom

Posted on September 2, 2004 by bkjones

It seems there’s no grooming tool of any kind in your bathroom that can’t be upgraded to one that vibrates these days. It started with the relatively innocent and luxurious pulsing shower head. OK, I admit it. When I was living in Louisiana, working from 6:30am until it was too dark to work, doing manual…

Laying my own solid wood flooring

Posted on August 31, 2004 by bkjones

My friend/coworker, Steve, bought a house about two months before me, and decided to lay his own hardwood floor. Being geeks, neither of us are really the handiest people in the world. So I figured I’d see how his experience went before I figured out what to do with my own neon-blue carpeted living room….

Blogger Works With Linux

Posted on August 26, 2004 by bkjones

First, let me point you to the lovely array of links to the right. I’ve linked to almost all of the articles I’ve written for Linux.com. I say almost because I can’t even find them all myself. They’re working out some kinks in the search functionality. Anyway… The other thing I wanted to point out…

Figured I’d give this blog thing a try

Posted on August 25, 2004 by bkjones

Well, here goes nothin’ So many of my friends have blogs now that I figured I should learn something about them. At first, I didn’t get it. Then I started seeing how people were using their blogs to create these sort of virtual idea “threads”. PersonA posts their opinion, and other bloggers can post their…
