		<title>Heap</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Haven&#8217;t been blogging much because we&#8217;ve just moved, and before that we were on our honeymoon, and before that we were getting married, and before that we were planning a wedding and a honeymoon, all of which was a bit of a time sink. As a result I haven&#8217;t done much programming, apart from work, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Vye Mini-v S37</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So my Vye S37 just arrived. It came with Vista on it; I booted it once (actually about three times, after it did all its setup-reboot-repeat shenanigans&#8230; sheesh) to check that it worked, then booted Ubuntu 9.10 Netbook Remix from a USB drive.
Here&#8217;s a list of what works in UNR out of the box:

Everything.

Okay, technically [...]]]></description>

		<title>iPad Substitute</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I seem to have developed a pattern of buying alternatives to Apple&#8217;s flagship products.
Instead of getting an iPod, I bought an iriver. Part of the rationale was that it supported Ogg Vorbis. It also turned out to be chunky and awful and churn through AA batteries, but meh.
I deliberated for a while about getting an [...]]]></description>

		<title>n-queens Mexican Standoff</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The first day back at work has proved fruitful in the form of someone coming up with the opposite of the traditional n-queens problem: the n-queens Mexican standoff. Instead of minimising the number of mutually attacking queens (to zero), the objective of the standoff version is to maximise the number of attacks.
We haven&#8217;t done an [...]]]></description>

		<title>New Year&#8217;s Resolution</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This year I intend to learn to use Emacs properly. I&#8217;ve always liked Emacs in principle but never really been able to remember the arcane command sequences to do anything beyond undo, search/replace, and some basic navigation and file stuff. This is the year to jump down the rabbit hole.
A backup resolution, in case the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Fibonacci music</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I spent most of today messing around with music based on the Fibonacci sequence. The result I&#8217;m happiest with has four voices, each using the Fibonacci sequence mod 12 to determine the pitch (in semitones), and using the sequence with other moduli (4, 5, 3 and 2 respectively) to determine the timing.

		<title>Zendo and inductive logic</title>
		<description><![CDATA[&#8230;is what I&#8217;m thinking about now. (Okay, technically, are what I&#8217;m thinking about now.)
Don&#8217;t have time for a fully explanatory post right now; I just wanted to get something on here so that the new blog doesn&#8217;t stagnate before it&#8217;s even started. So here&#8217;s a bullet-point-form introduction:

Zendo is a game where players try to guess [...]]]></description>

		<title>Oh looky, a new blog</title>
		<description><![CDATA[&#8216;Cause I wasn&#8217;t neglecting the old one enough already.
This is a bit of an experiment. Until recently I thought the one-person-with-multiple-blogs-for-different-topics thing was a bad case of over-engineering. But I have a new theory that goes like this: none of you should have to read through my random thoughts on gardening and moustache-growth updates on [...]]]></description>
