PID code for Arduino
Here is my PID code for Arduino or other microcontroller. It is unfinished and untested in this exact state, but it used to work on a PIC, so it cant be that broken, right? Once I get a chance to get it uploaded to my espresso machine and tested IRL, I'll publish it on the arduino wiki. If you use this and especially if you change it, please drop a quick comment. (license at bottom) thanks!

PSP Installer App
I've been spending a lot of time hacking my iPhone. One of the greatest things about the hacking scene in that community is the installer.app
Why has the psp community not yet written an installer program like this for the hundreds of psp releases? Or is there one that I'm missing? I still dig through ads on pspupdates to download my apps to the pc and then sync to the psp.

Inside Quonset Nation
Here are some shots inside my new hut of joy. I put in the kerosene heater left over from out sweet days if living aboard. It makes a fantastic four season hang out. It will be interesting to see how warm I can keep it when the temperatures really drop.
I got a solid core door and put it up on saw horses. My Nantucket Ditty Bag works perfectly as a hanging tool organizer. Home depot had some big hooks for a buck that I can just screw into the bracing and add impromptu features to the hut.
Here is the canoe awaiting repairs. I stripped off all the electric parts for a good old fashioned paddle coming up this weekend.
I need a wider angle lens to convey how nice it feels inside, but this long shot gives the idea.

Control things from your PSP
This blog still gets a ton of traffic from the PSP Home Control Post, so I guess if you found your way here you want to know more about how to control things from your PSP.
Well one of the commenter's on the blog found this:
It is a great open source project called :
PSP WifiController
It consists of an app for the PSP paired with an app for the PC that hooks into PPJoy. This means any application that you can have on your computer that will respond to joystick presses will be able to accept control signals from the PSP over wifi.

Fort Quonset
Here are three photos from the construction of my new favorite
place! I found this made in the USA Clearspan brand tent on close
out at farmtek.com. I ended up building a floor from cheap chipboard
subflooring that is unfortunately full of bad chemicals. Under the
chip board I used free scrap wood from Lowe's to level it all out.
Materials for the floor ended up under $100. By the way, I didn't
knock that fence down. Its rotting of its own volition.
The steel frame consists of seven arches. I ordered one extra set over the standard six to decrease the spacing to 40" and beef up the structure to better manage any heavy snows. Though, I frankly don't think it would have been an issue with a structure this size. Though you are specifically warned in the instructions not to climb or hang on the structure, I hung on it anyway. Rebel! Its strong though! I set up little tabs of 2x4s sticking out from under the floor to support the ends of the poles.
Here is it all finished! I have started to move in. My canoe is safely stored inside now, and I am planning to setup a four season outdoor social space and small shop area. I even hung our hammock up inside and gently tested it out. There was a little flex, but it actually holds me up in the hammock quite well. The whole tent weighs 500 lbs and is excellent quality overall. It will be a great place for projects and enjoying the back yard all year round.

I heart Arduino
I wrote the first version of my espresso machine project in MPLAB for a PIC. I lost many hours just getting a power supply setup and subsequently frying parts and getting confused when I powered them wrong, or had mistakes in wiring. I suppose I don't have to call those hours "lost," but after spending 3 hours debugging code to realize that I've made a wiring mistake is pretty freaking frustrating.
I am starting a new revision of my machine mod. I am planning to add a realtime clock, water level sensor, and improved interface. On a tip from my friend Casey, I checked out Arduino as a base for this second revision. Arduino has been developed particularly to bring electronics to first time users and has been adopted by artists, musicians, and designers all over the world. For me, its just a huge relief, and has brought a much higher fun ratio to my espresso hobby. My three favorite aspects of using arduino are that i can work in OS X, it uses a USB bootloader, and other people might be able to use my software and hardware designs for their own purposes. Its already catching on, but I expect that Arduino (and wiring) will continue to gain in popularity.

Downgrade any version PSP firmware to 1.5
The holy grail of PSP hacks has been released tonight. You can now downgrade any PSP firmware to version 1.5 thanks to the dedicated hackers of the PSP scene.
to pull this off they actually figured out how to reverse engineer the process of putting the PSP into service mode and overwriting the filesystem with the original 1.5 firmware. The process involves changing the state of the battery and some copyright free code that does the filesystem operations. This works on any PSP even if it has been bricked or has the latest firmware. The best part is, it doesn't look like any firmware updates can fix this one.
So this should open the floodgates for PSP hacking and homebrew once again... now every single person who owns a PSP can play the great homebrew games and applications available for download for free from sites such as PSPUpdates.
It is still unknown if this method will work on the new slim PSP's, but not likely since the new hardware probably requires firmware newer than 1.5.
To get started with unbricking or downgrading your PSP, you need a friend who already has a hacked PSP, and an extra PSP battery is preferred. The download and instructions can be found here:

Application Architecture for .NET: Designing Applications and Services
Build Your Own .NET Language and Compiler (with source code)
This practical book presents techniques that you can apply to everyday work. You’ll learn to add scripts and macro languages to your applications, add runtime expression evaluation to their applications, and generate code immediately. Further, you will learn parsing techniques, which are essential to extract information from any structured form of data—like text files, user input, XML, or HTML. As a bonus, the book includes a complete QuickBasic compatible compiler with source code that works. The compiler illustrates the book’s techniques and acts as a versatile .NET language. All software developers use languages, which are the fundamental tool of the trade. Despite curiosity about how languages work, few developers actually understand how. Unfortunately, most texts on language and compiler development are hard to digest, written from academic platforms for use in college-level computer science programs. On the other hand, Build Your Own .NET Language and Compiler demystifies compiler and language development, and makes the subjects palatable for all programmers. TABLE OF CONTENT: NOTE: There is something you should know. Source code is not complete! There is about 90+% of it in my upload but not whole. It is, also, the reason why I upload it separated from the book so you could deceide for yourself will you downlad it or not. Naturaly, there is no way for me to know which parts are missing so don't ask me, I don't know. Sorry, but it's not my fault and this is the best I could get. I recomend you to use it because (even like this) will save you a lot of time. Password: ganelon Download source code here |
Cisco Express Forwarding (Networking Technology)
What is the difference between routing a packet and switching a packet? What is this CEF feature that is referred to in Cisco documentation and commonly found in Cisco IOS commands? Cisco Express Forwarding addresses these questions through comprehensive discussions of Cisco Express Forwarding (CEF). CEF is a term used to describe one of the mechanisms used by Cisco IOS routers and Cisco Catalyst switches to forward packets. CEF offers the benefits of improved performance, scalability, and resilience. CEF is found in almost all Cisco IOS routers and Catalyst switches, however documentation of the topic is very scarce. This book addresses common misconceptions about CEF and packet switching across various platforms. It helps readers understand CEF and how to troubleshoot whether there is a CEF or another problem occurring in the network. The book guides readers through CEF basics, supplying exercises and troubleshooting scenarios that enhance their ability to recognize common mistakes, as well as to provide them with some models for configurations that they can follow in their own networks. |

Powerful Sleep - Secrets of the inner sleep clock
Password: knowfree.net |
Here's how to put your sleep back into its natural energized state, that will give you the extra energy you deserve… And you'll never have to fight with your feeling exhausted again!Pro SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services
Sure, there are enough differences between design applications to mean that the designer must become familiar with each particular environment. However, there’s enough crossover functionality to make this learning curve small. For example, the SUMfunction is the same in Crystal Reports as it is in MS Access as it is in Structured Query Language (SQL). With MS SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services (referred to as SSRS throughout the book), there is, again, only a marginal difference in the way reports are designed from one graphical report design application to another. So, if you do have previous reporting experience, your learning curve for SSRS should be relatively shallow. This is especially true if you come from a .NET environment, because the report designer application for SSRS is Visual Studio 2005 or the application included with SQL Server 2005, Business Intelligence Development Studio (BIDS). TABLE OF CONTENT: Password: ganelon |
This book was written in parallel with a real SSRS deployment for a health-care application, so it covers almost every design and deployment consideration for SSRS, always from the stand-point of how to get the job done effectively. You’ll find step-by-step guides, practical tips, and best practices, along with code samples that you’ll be able to modify and use in your own SSRS applications. At its core, the process of designing reports hasn’t changed substantially in the past 15 years. The report designer lays out report objects, which contain data from a known data source, in a design application such as Learning German on Your Own - The Complete Idiot’s Guide
This guide covers the essentials of grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation, and conversation. It contains the most accurate information for students and travelers alike, along with a German/ English and English/German dictionary appendix for readers to reference.
You can also use this book to impress your friends with words beyond 'Bratwurst' and 'Kindergarten'.

"Doing Objects in Visual Basic 2005" is one of the few books that I've seen that lays the proper object-oriented foundation to make new Visual Basic.NET developers as well as VB6 veterans successful in moving to the .NET Framework." - Paul Ballard, President, Rochester Consulting Partnership, Inc. "Deborah Kurata's "Doing Objects in Visual Basic 2005" is salvation for every programmer beached on the forbidding isle of .NET object-oriented programming. 'Right this way,' she says, leading you confidently into that vaguely menacing interior. Step follows step. |
Pro SQL Server 2005
This book provides a critical examination of all of the major new functionality in SQL Server 2005, covering such diverse topics as CLR integration, the new management tools, SQL Server Integration Services, Service Broker, Transact-SQL (T-SQL) programming, and database mirroring. The book does not profess or even try to be a comprehensive reference on any one of these areas as you are probably aware, this would often require a sizable book in itself. Instead, it provides practical, in-depth coverage of the core topics in each area, illustrated with realistic examples. Hopefully, we’ve done this in such a way that you will immediately be able to translate what you learn here into your business environment and have a firm foundation for exploring a particular topic further, should it be necessary. SQL Server 2005 is a vast new release. This book provides you with a starting point, a road map, and a strong foundation on which to build. Its practical nature and careful guidelines and advice will mean that the book continues to be useful long after your initial assessment of SQL Server 2005 is complete.

101 MS Visual Basic .NET Applications
The 101 sample applications that make up this book contain code that answers many common questions a beginner-to-intermediate-level Microsoft Visual Basic .NET developer is faced with when building Microsoft .NET applications. Each sample application was developed using a set of coding conventions (which you’ll find in this book), and each sample shares a common look and feel, as much as possible. Each sample also includes a readme.htm file that explains some basics of the application in case you’re reviewing a sample without having the book close at hand. The samples in this book are ready to be run in either the Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2002 or 2003 development environment. You can find the Visual Studio .NET 2003 files in Chapter folders within the \101VBApps folder; look inside the VS2002 folder within the \101VBApps folder for the Visual Studio .NET 2002 files. Finally each application is designed to be “F5-able,” meaning that they should all run out of the box, without any special configuration. Any circumstances for which specific software or setup is needed is fully documented in the readme. The only general requirement is that you have Microsoft SQL Server installed either as a default instance or an instance installed with the name NETSDK. You can easily install a version of SQL Server by installing the version of MSDE that ships with the .NET Framework quickstarts. Explore 101 of the most useful Visual Basic .NET applications in action—and jumpstart your own Microsoft .NET Framework-based development projects. This guide provides expert, behind-the-code commentary on 101 fully executable code samples—distilling more than 700 hours of programming time into best practices for Microsoft Windows Forms development. Each code sample demonstrates core features and functions of Visual Basic .NET and the .NET Framework, explains the underlying programming concepts, and provides a complete code walkthrough. From creating basic data entry forms to drilling deep into the .NET Framework, you’ll learn the techniques that Microsoft’s own developers use to write real-world applications with Visual Basic .NET.

AutoCAD And AutoCAD LT AIO Desk Reference - For Dummies
This book gives you an understanding of all the main features that you need to know in order to be productive with AutoCAD and AutoCAD LT. The All-in-One Desk References For Dummies are much different from other For Dummies books you may have read; more information is crammed between the two covers, and the content is more in-depth. This book is laid out to focus on individual topics and allows you the freedom of moving around between its minibooks. We recommend that if you are not familiar (or somewhat familiar) with AutoCAD that you read through Books I and II before moving on to the other minibooks. After you read this book, don’t let it run too far from your desk, you will find it helpful as a reference whenever you might need it. We expect that you know how to use the Windows operating system and understand the basics of navigating folders and starting applications. To take advantage of everything that AutoCAD offers and what is contained in this book, we assume that you have at least an Internet connection — dial-up at least, but a high-speed cable or DSL connection would be best. As long as you have AutoCAD or AutoCAD LT installed on the computer in front of you and a connection to the Internet, you are ready to get started. TABLE OF CONTENT: Password: ganelon |

With the release of .NET 2.0, the Visual Basic .NET programming language has been officially renamed as Visual Basic 2005—perhaps in an attempt to highlight the fact that the BASIC language used with the .NET platform has nothing to do with the COM-centric VB 6.0. As you would guess, VB 2005 adds even more language features to a developer’s tool chest such as operator overloading, custom conversion routines, and generics. For all practical purposes, there really is no difference between VB 2005, C#, or any other .NET programming language. Now more than ever, an individual’s language of choice is based on personal preferences rather than the language’s overall feature set. In any case, regardless of which group you identify with, I do welcome you to this book. The overall approach I will be taking is to treat VB 2005 as aunique member of the BASIC family. As you read over the many chapters that follow, you will be exposed to the syntax and semantics of VB 2005, dive into each of the major .NET code libraries (Windows Forms, ASP.NET, ADO.NET, XML web services, etc.), and have athorough grounding in object-oriented development.
