What’s Here..
This site holds an irregularly published set of articles on Linux and Programming; articles will be added as I discover interesting things that others might also want to read about.

Posts and Articles
The content on this site is divided into two types. “Posts” are typical blog entries - personal, related to a specific time, and seldom updated afterwards. “Articles” are descriptions of how things work, and may well be revised/rewritten due to feedback or as I learn more. Often, a short blog post will be used to point out newly written or significantly updated articles.
There may also be articles that no “post” refers to; they can be found via the “Categories” links.
