I’ve updated my linkValidator class. Fixed the hanging links when the link was pointing to a HTTP/1.0 server. It’s backwards compatible, so just overwrite to old class file.

Every time when I tried to start MySQL, I got these errors:

031209 14:10:32 mysqld started

031209 14:10:33 Can’t start server : Bind on unix socket: Permission denied

031209 14:10:33 Do you already have another mysqld server running on socket: /tmp/mysql.sock ?

031209 14:10:33 Aborting

031209 14:10:33 /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqld: Shutdown Complete

031209 14:10:33 mysqld ended

It’s something with the file permitions. When I start it with this it works… Don’t have the right sollution yet…

sudo /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqld_safe –user=root

What you can do with an iPod shuffle and a pair of headphones ;) This is cool! Shufflephones 2.0

Again from /.: Anyone who has ever developed a website knows that cross-browser and cross-platform compatibility is a nightmare, mainly due to Microsoft’s willful non-compliance with the CSS2 standard. As this eWeek article points out, it seems Microsoft will continue their poor support for CSS2 even in the IE 7.0 release. This may have worked when IE was the only game in town, but now that Firefox is a serious player, it won’t help them keep market share as they think it will.

On slashdot: “According to Information Week, Firefox usage is now over 6 percent,
pulling Internet Explorer usage down below 90 percent. ‘Firefox is
currently the only browser that is increasing market share on a monthly
basis, and it is growing at the direct expense of Microsoft’s Internet
Explorer’”

Today I was on a Adobe seminar. On the way back in the car, a friend of
mine called for some example code. I wanted to send it from the car
using my MacOS-X (Panther) PowerBook with my Sony Ericsson T610. It
didn’t work… When I got home I googled for the settings, but didn’t
found it… But after some lokking around in the Mac Help files I
figured it out… This is what I did…

Open the ‘Bluetooth Serial Utility’ located in: Applications/Utilities.
Make a new device by pressing the ‘New…’ button.
Now the utility is asking for some configs… I used this:

Name: T610
Port Direction: Outgoing
Require Authentication: NOT CHECKED
Require Encryption: NOT CHECKED
Show In Network Preferences: CHECKED
Port Type: Modem

Now press the ‘Select Device…’ button. There should be your
T610 in the device list, select it. Now on the right side you should
select ‘Serial Port 2′
Now open your System Preferences and go to the Network Preferences.
Now you should have the T610 in the Network Status… Dubble click it and set your PPP preferences.
Now select the ‘Modem’ tab. Here I set the ‘Ericsson T39 9.6 V110′.
Press the ‘Apply Now’ button…
Now you can dial using the ‘Internet Connect’ utility. Select the T610 and press the ‘Connect’ button.
Now open a beer and wait for the connection to come up ;)
