20 * Journal
21
22 I keep a [[http://journal.unknownlamer.org/][journal]] which is where I tend to send ideas out into the
23 Ether before reformulating them into coherent essays for the site
24 sitting before you, occasionally interspersed with commentary on my
25 mundane daily existence.
26
27 [[http://unknownlamer.org/index.1999_2006.html][The Old Site]] is still available. Links to pages there will remain
28 stable indefinitely so as to not break the Holy Command of Our Sovran
29 Hypertextia.

52 ** Résumé
53
54 I am a programmer by trade, and as such have a (potentially) fancy
55 [[files/resume.pdf][Résumé]]. I am quite familiar with [[http://common-lisp.net/project/ucw/][UnCommon Web]] and Common Lisp in
56 general. This, naturally, makes me unemployable.

58 ** A Picture

62 ** Site Software
63
64 I use [[http://www.mwolson.org/projects/MuseMode.html][muse-mode]] to author the site because [[http://emacswiki.org][Emacs]] is all powerful, and
65 the closest approximation to a good user interface available on any
66 modern computer system. Muse allows me to simply write with very low
67 overhead (I spend most of my time in Emacs, and having hyperlinks and
68 a reasonable preview in the file buffer is quite useful). The file
69 format is quite hairy, but luckily the code is Free Software and, if
70 needed, I could easily write a publishing backend that transcoded my
71 site to an easier to parse format. There are advantages to being a
72 programmer.
73
74 I use darcs to push updates to the site and manage my muse files. As
75 such there is a handy [[http://unknownlamer.org/darcsweb/browse?r=unknownlamer.org;a=rss][updates feed]] courtesy of darcsweb.
