Once upon a time I had an online diary thing here

Once upon a time I had an online diary thing here. I used to write about stuff I was doing, which for several years was mostly related to Lisp. After a while my blog became part of Planet Lisp. For the last couple of years, though, I’ve had a job that mostly involves Perl, and leisure pursuits that mostly involve strapping eight wheels to my feet and taunting taxis, and while from time to time I might say something that Planet Lisp is interested in, it’s not a regular occurrence. And, following the general principle that off-topic noise is tolerated in proportion to the amount of signal that also emanates from the same source, in the absence of actual Lisp content to write about I found I was even less likely to write about anything else here. But well, I’ve not totally given up on the Lisp thing and it’s nice to be aggregated when I do have something relevant to say.

So, if you are reading this entry (whether aggregated somehow or directly) and want to continue seeing sporadic Lisp-related posts from me, do nothing and it will probably happen. If you wanted everything else as well, see instead the forthcoming http://coruskate.blogspot.com/ which will shortly fill up with entertaining “A funny thing happened to me on the way to the ”http://www.lfns.co.uk/“>LFNS” stories and rants about instructions to “unlock the power of gravity” and how that relates to the law of conservation of energy (short form: it doesn’t).

ObLisp: I have a week off work early next year for hacking time.
