This is the home server of Nick Black aka Nick tfm Black aka dankamongmen aka the dankest aka Admiral Diggities, located at 33°77′N, 84°38′W in the heart of Midtown Atlanta, GA. This wiki is primarily for my personal use, but open to public viewing in case anything generally helpful emerges (and to fight the search engine presence of the hated nick black band, who're very much on the enemy list). I make no guarantees concerning correctness, relevance, or timeliness of the information contained herein. I've started this project only recently (February 2008), and while it is growing quickly, most articles are by necessity stub links. If you are stalking me, you'd do better consulting my blog at LiveJournal, or my MySpace / Facebook. Sometimes I edit Wikipedia articles, as well, and I love to review books on GoodReads. I'm pondering a new, strictly technical blog over at Money. Cache. Hoes..
qemfd.net
- qemfd: quod erat motherfuckin' demonstrandum! ■ (wikipedia, wolfram)
- phpsysinfo, cacti, old main page (including directions + contact info)
- bugzilla for projects like libdank
Projects?
- Hackery!
- WORDHORDE
- Grad school (NEW: CS GRE prep page)
- Elemental naming and good words
- BlackBerry crap.
- What does worldwide TaB® consumption have to do with nuclear weapons?
UNIX
- Power Management. Sound Software, Using Unicode
- Debian, Xorg hell, Consoles and Framebuffers
- Recent insanity: DBus, HAL, Avahi
- My MediaWiki notes. Core files happen when one dances fandango on core. Notes on subversion.
- Linux on Dells, SATA, udev, various linux-related hardware detritus (mainly random personal crap)
Things I wish I'd never learned, and very cool things, in a stub-dense pile
Can you guess which are which (sometimes it changes)?
- X Macros, ISO C99, rpaths, gcc notes, gmake notes.
- glibc, other interesting libraries, working with libraries, some implementing interfaces like pthreads.
- Linux APIs, FreeBSD APIs, ELF (which is not, in itself, an API).
- The cpuid instruction, SMP on x86, Performance Counters, simulators.
- Simulators ought not be confused with the 4,000 Linux VT Solutions!
- Getting into ARM. Getting into ACPI. Getting into Architecture.
- Lamport's Hash, Lamport's Clock, Skip Lists, I will put thoughts about automata here, Dijkstran Method.
- Flash sucks. Need get a handle on Compiler Design by tomorrow's midterm.
- Trees for smoking and computing. lock- and wait-free algorithms. Cache-oblivious algorithms. RCU.
- Allocators get us that free store, son (usually through a DRAM-backed VM)!
- Said VM might implement transactional memory, and almost certainly works on pages.
- Via Grover's Algorithm, we might be able to discover the monster at the end of this quantum book.
- Jefferson's Time Wrap algorithm, and while we're at it, timer wheels and even x86 timing.
- Writing high-performance, scalable UNIX system applications is a passion of mine.
- Let's get bipartite, bipartite...with bip buffers.
- Ling adders, Blum's axioms, and Rice's Theorem are all named after people smarter than me...
- ...as are Chaitin's Constant and Kolmologorv complexity, though not the Speed Prior.
- Questions?
Networking
- What's all this Zeroconf shit?
- SSHFP and LOC records
- VoIP and telephony, NAPTR records
- SFP, DomainKeys, DNSSEC
- Some TCP notes. Syncookies.
- The Working Man's Guide to ICAP, ICAP page
- SNMP
- Mirror of the BIg-Internet list from ftp://munnari.oz.au
- Tunneling
