		<description><![CDATA[Others have pointed out that when pushing the &#8220;Run&#8221; button within QtCreator when the target is set to your N9 or N950, aka Harmattan device it&#8217;s very slow. The reason is that it fully builds and packages everything before sending it over. That&#8217;s great when you actually want a full package installed, especially when you [...]]]></description>

This is (was) a day where the techies all over the world were encouraged to try and see what worked with IPv6 and what didn&#8217;t.

My new extension to this law (Wes&#8217; law?) will now read: &#8220;If anything can go wrong, it will, at the most inconvenient time&#8221; because he didn&#8217;t take into account the 4th dimension: time.

		<description><![CDATA[Ideally, every antenna should have every critical component in place and be tuned perfectly to the frequency you&#8217;re operating on. Obviously, however, that&#8217;s far removed from &#8220;real life&#8221;. Most people end up starting with simple antennas and slowly improving them as time marches on. I&#8217;ve certainly taken this track and have been slowing improving my [...]]]></description>

Now, we all know that people make mistakes and hardware failures can and will happen. However, in these two cases it wasn&#8217;t from &#8220;broken code&#8221; but rather &#8220;broken as designed&#8221;. The IETF, a standards [...]]]></description>

A while back I built a 2m Copper &#8220;Super-J-Pole&#8221; antenna which I attached to my chimney and use on a daily basis. Then [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A while ago we cancelled our Davis Enterprise subscription. Not because it&#8217;s not a good paper (it is) or becuase it&#8217;s biased (it is) but because we didn&#8217;t read it ehough to justify the energy costs of producing and recycling it. But I would like to continue to read their content electronically where I could [...]]]></description>
