I’m sure everyone who reads this blog knows I’ll be at BSDCan tonight through early Sunday morning. I will also have books for sale, however. Absolute OpenBSD, $50 SSH Mastery, $20 DNSSEC Mastery (4 proof copies only), $20 Cash only. If you buy a book, I’ll throw in a free Tilted Windmill Press T-shirt while . . . → Read More: Books at BSDCan Someone pointed out that it would be nice to know when I’ll be doing what at Penguicon. So, here’s my schedule. Friday, 26 April: 6PM-7PM opening ceremonies 7PM-8PM Guest of Honor Social Hour 9PM-10PM OpenBSD (kind of obligatory) Saturday, 27 April: 10AM-noon: liquid nitrogen ice cream, my own flavor 5PM-6PM: Technology Publishing in 2013 Sunday . . . → Read More: Penguicon Schedule I’m a guest of honor at Penguicon this weekend. I’ll be doing a one-hour talk on technology publishing in 2013. I’ll also be inventing an ice cream flavor. Other guests include author Jim C Hines, chef and author Jeff Potter, Arduino and Raspberry pi guru & author Maik Schmidt, hackerspace advocate and censorship activist Nick . . . → Read More: At Penguicon this weekend Absolute OpenBSD is at the printer. I can do nothing more on this book. For better or worse, the book is complete. I’m resisting the urge to scream “I can do it better! Give me the book back, I will rewrite it until it doesn’t suck!” I got copyedits back on DNSSEC Mastery. Hopefully, the . . . → Read More: Misc: Books, and April Fool’s For those who want the dubious pleasure of encountering me in meatspace: I am a guest at Penguicon April 26-28, 2013, in Pontiac, MI, USA. I am teaching at BSDCan, May 15-18, 2013, in Ottawa, Ontario, CA. I expect to have copies of Absolute OpenBSD at both events. (Penguicon might be pushing it, but I’m . . . → Read More: Upcoming Appearances When you set goals for a year, you need to tell people about them. The potential embarrassment of having to admit failure helps you complete the goals. With that in mind, here are my goals for 2013: 1) I will do three short technology books through my private label (aka “self-publish”). The first, on DNSSec, . . . → Read More: 2013 Projects and 2012 Errata The money has left my bank account, so I guess this is official: Tilted Windmill Press (the LLC under which I self-publish) is the official T-shirt sponsor of BSDCan 2013. Why do this? First, it’s important to give back to my community. BSDCan is one of the biggest and oldest cross-BSD conferences, and this . . . → Read More: TWP sponsoring BSDCan 2013 Yesterday’s election was mostly a primary, but also included a few millage issues. The purpose of a primary is to keep the obvious maniacs from getting onto the final ballot, so I make the effort to vote. (Your definition of “obvious maniacs” probably differs from mine, but that’s okay.) I’m waiting for verification, and am . . . → Read More: Technology versus Democracy I usually post two different sorts of items here: tech articles, and publishing articles. Would you lot prefer I did two separate blogs? I would probably still feed both to third parties such as Twitter and Facebook, but it appears that most of my readers use RSS. If nobody cares, I’ll leave things as they . . . → Read More: Splitting blog? You can find me on Google Plus. The short link is http://gplus.to/mwlucas. No real content there yet. No idea what if anything I will do with it. But I’ve put a blanket down on my little patch of park, at least. |
