1600 | Cambidge - Tcl, Expect and Perl courses By an amazing co-incidence, I'm in Cambridge this week ... running two 2.5 day Tcl and Expect courses, then back just across the road next week running two 2 day Perl introduction courses of the bootcamp style.

2743 | Public Open Source Training Courses running this summer and autumn in Melksham We've got a continuing series of Open Source courses scheduled through the summer ... as I write (late April) we still have availability on all public courses, although in one or two cases our rooms at Well House Manor are all spoken for.

2425 | Weekend and Christmas Promotion - Well House Manor Hotel, Melksham We've been busy at weekends at Well House Manor this summer - a notable increase in business, and this weekend we have returning guests once again, which is always a good sign.

1136 | Buffering output - why it is done and issues raised in Tcl, Perl, Python and PHP When you go to board a plane at Heathrow, do the ground staff admit the passengers one at a time, ensuring that each is seated before the next boards, and sealing and re-opening the main doors between each? What a stupid and inefficient system that would be!!
The same thing applies when you're programming ... | 2009-08-31 |
1318 | Well House Manor - feature comparison against the old place! It's now over a year since "The Old Manor" B&B, which used to operate from the same premises as Well House Manor, closed its doors and we bought the building for our new venture.

2052 | How was my web site compromised? It looks to me as if this car has left the road and come to a sudden halt against the building, with the result that both have been somewhat damaged. But why did it happen? Was there a mechanical failure such as brakes or tyres? Did the driver fall asleep at the wheel or something distract him? ... | 2009-02-24 |

1663 | Python in an afternoon - a lecture for experienced programmers Last Friday afternoon I was set a challenge - to present Python in three hours to a group of 20 very experience programmers who, however, knew nothing about this particular language.

1224 | Object Relation Mapping (ORM) Another technical term? Yes - this one is a formal name for how you convert a database into Objects - applicable to any OO language (Perl, Python, PHP, Java ...)
