Dave Gauer
Howdy, I’m Dave Gauer. I’ve worked in web technologies since the late 1990s. Some interests: computer programming of all kinds, Linux/BSD/Unix, art, books (genre fiction, computing, history, biographies, art monographs), film, music (metal!), boardgames, and watching small creatures in the back yard.

The human race can survive my website because of a tree in my front yard...
We all deserve something shorter and sweeter in the RSS feed for the weekend. This whole concept brings a smile to my face...
Here's an essay I started last month and finally finished. I read something that helped me sort out what happened the last time I put my foot in my mouth online...
As I teased in the previous item, this update links to what basically amounts to a "mini-site" of four web pages and one software repo. This is exactly what it says in the title as well as my personal review of Snobol4 and related thoughts...
In the next couple days, I expect to be posting a link to a "mini-site" of content about a fun programming subject. With that upcoming example in mind, this seems like as good time as any to explain why this feed doesn't contain the full text of the linked "posts", amongst other things...
