Last monday I had an extra hour before work, so I drove into the fields between Delft and Rotterdam and took some pictures of the sunrise. It had been freezing that night, with an almost clear sky and there was frost everywhere.

I have changed the site design again, the old one got boring. The new layout is vaguely based on an article from A List Apart, called Creating Liquid Layouts with Negative Margins.
The layout works like I intended in mozilla, opera and konqueror, and looks not-entirely-horrible in internet explorer. The latter looks fixable, and I'll try to do that some time soon. I will probably be tweaking the layout for some time to come.
Everything in the right-hand column is static, by the way. I had been struggling with some blosxom plugins to generate a photo album, but none of them did what I wanted them to do. So another item for the wishlist of wirescape plugins is a photo-album plugin.

As another example of what you could do with python 2.4 decorators, I tried to wrap class methods in a database transaction, and this is what it became:
def intransaction(method): def wraptransaction(self, *args, **kwargs): try: self.conn.beginTransaction() rv = method(self, *args, **kwargs) except: self.conn.rollbackTransaction() raise else: self.conn.commitTransaction() return rv return wraptransaction
class DatabaseInterface(object): def __init__(self, **kwargs): self.conn = DatabaseConnection(**kwargs) @intransaction def getSomething(self, id): return self.conn.select(id)[0]

Seriously, I don't know what is wrong with me. I just can't seem to find any usable software package lately. Either they all suck, or I'm being too demanding or impatient. Probably both, there's a lot of crappy software out there—which includes my own. Most software depends on either a specific database system, a specific programming language, or has far too many dependencies (have a look at slash or scoop for example, gah).
Last monday I ran into a fixed limit in the X protocol, I had opened rougly 220 X terminals, at which time I couldn't open any more because the X protocol somehow allows only 240 client connections. (Yeah I know, I have a habit of not closing them when I've done something—have a look at this screenshot to get an idea of what my desktop usually looks like.) Why is there even a limit like this? It probably has something to do with the X protocol being invented when computers were slow and networking bandwidth was limited, and terminals seemed like a good idea, so fixed field lengths were being used. There's Fresco, but I have never looked at it long enough to tell whether or not it fixes these things.
Isn't there some kind of way to make these things more generic? I don't want to install php if I have perl available, I don't want to install mysql if I already have postgresql installed. Hell, if I wanted to use XML files or Oracle, why not use those? And I certainly don't like to be forced to use a certain desktop environment—if you're bored and have some internet bandwidth to waste, try to install konqueror on an otherwise pure GNOME-system.
I often threaten to write my own programming language, my own operating system, and given the time and motivation I'd probably rewrite everything in existance to fix limitations like these.
The latest project I'm working on (kansloos.it) involves selecting a news or weblog package, something that allows me to post short stories, lets users submit stories, and some level of integration with several forums on the same site. I've been increasingly frustrated by blosxom, and from talking on IRC I've heard a lot of similar sentiments about other weblog packages. Now it tends to go in the direction of writing yet another weblog implementation, which probably also has its own constraints and weird limitations, and it won't be finished for a while either.
So what am I going to do? I just wrote “write weblog system” on my todo-list…

Conservatives to protest RNC protests ―what?
Their website has more information. These guys seem to be seriously derailed.
There is nothing wrong with protests to make yourself heard, but these guys just seem to be protesting just for the heck of it:
“We must admit we get a certain high from puncturing the moral self-righteousness of leftists.”
The FAQ is filled with specious claims, appealing to the fear of and uncertainty over other cultures. They seem to assert that western culture is the only acceptable culture, denying the fact that morals and standards vary wildly elsewhere:
“When mothers happily send their children off to bomb buses and schools, this is not based on any rational grievance. No, this is endemic of a sick, utterly immoral, anti-life culture that serves only one purpose: to keep tyrants in power. ”
Time for an anti-anti-protest-protest-protest movement?

Yay, my internet connection works. It has been working since thursday evening, but I've been to busy doing other stuff to whine about it here. It took me too long to figure out where to get an old version of the firmware for my modem so I could use sipspoof.ini.

I have moved to the new address, where the dust has been settling down (literally) over the last week or so. The curtains are still missing, as well as some finishing touches. Other than that, all the big parts are done, except for the furniture and the stuff that's still in boxes.
My internet connection should be active right now, but I don't have an ADSL modem yet. Apparently they've already sent it to me, I wonder when I get it. Until the ADSL link works, I'm stuck with dialing in every so often, which is exactly the reason why I haven't written something here for so long.
I have internet at work, but you know, when you're at work, people seem to expect something from you, I don't know what or why.
I made some photos during the makeover and the move, but since I don't have internet yet, I can't upload them :\ When I'm back online I will post them.

Finally, after being on some silly list for just under two years, I have been offered a new home. I gladly accepted, but it's going to be hell to make it inhabitable, it's all concrete floors and completely empty. I fear it's going to be a long and expensive month…

Well, that was interesting. Rigel pushed me to submit the code to the ASPN cookbook, which I did. Then he told me that my entry was included in today's issue of daily python (apparently they do that to all entries from the ASPN cookbook). Incidentally I fixed a few minor bugs in the code. The complete code is downloadable here: abstractmethods.py.
Posted on 2004-01-22 by ivo :: /programming :: link
Ok, here is the same code as in the last two articles, this time with more explanation. The point is that python doesn't have a notion of “abstract methods.” Abstract methods are part of an base class that defines an interface, without any code. Abstract methods can't be called directly, because they don't contain any code in their definition.
In the definition of the base class, you may want to include a specific method that is part of the interface, but the specific implementation is still unknown. A popular example seems to be the drawing of a point or a line in a graphical application.
The classes Point and Line share
several implementation details, but differ on other. In
particular, the way they are drawn is completely different (you
will want to optimize the drawing of a line). Suppose these two
classes are derived from the same class, Object. It
is possible to separate the implementation of the method
draw of these two classes, while draw
can still be called from the base class Object.
The text below will introduce some utility classes that make this possible.
The goal of this article is defining a way to make it possible to define classes such as the following (not yet paying attention to the proper syntax):
class Object (object):
abstract draw()
def update(self):
self.draw()
class Point (Object):
def draw(self):
...
...
class Line (Object):
def draw(self):
...
...
The method draw of the class Object
cannot be implemented, because the concept of
‘drawing’ a generic object is undefined. Other
methods, such as the update above may want to use
draw anyway, because it is part of the specification
for the Object class and its descendants.
The implementation in python exists of two parts:
First the declaration part. To declare an abstract method, we can use callable class variables:
class Object (object): draw = AbstractMethod()
When somebody tries to call Object.draw(), an
exception will be raised. But as long as methods in
Object use self.draw(), they will
actually use Point.draw(), because self
will be of type Point.
If AbstractMethod is a class, draw will
be an instance of this class, so we can make draw
callable, and raise a proper exception (TypeError or
NotImplementedError for example) if it is called
instead of an implementation in one of the descendant classes.
class AbstractMethod (object): def __init__(self, func): self._function = func def __get__(self, obj, type): return self.AbstractMethodHelper(self._function, type) class AbstractMethodHelper (object): def __init__(self, func, cls): self._function = func self._class = cls def __call__(self, *args, **kwargs): raise TypeError('Abstract method `' + self._class.__name__ \ + '.' + self._function + '\' called')
So now we can declare Object as follows:
class Object (object): draw = AbstractMethod('draw') def update(self): self.draw()
If we tried to call Object().draw() directly, we get
an exception:
>>> Object().draw() TypeError: Abstract method `Object.draw' called
The same happens with Object().update():
>>> Object().update() TypeError: Abstract method `Object.draw' called
If we implement a descendant class which implements
draw, there is no error.
class Point (Object): def draw(self): print 'Point.draw called'
(Note that there is no definition for update in
Point, it uses the implementation inherited from
Object.)
>>> Point().update() Point.draw called
Of course, we shouldn't be getting an exception at all if we try to call an abstract function. It should be impossible to create an instance of a class that has one or more abstract methods in its definition (either declared directly in the class definition, or implicitly via inheritance without overriding it with a real method). We can solve this pretty easily by declaring a metaclass that checks if there are any abstract methods in a class definition, and raise an exception if there are.
class Metaclass (type): def __init__(cls, name, bases, *args, **kwargs): type.__init__(cls, name, bases, *args, **kwargs) cls.__new__ = staticmethod(cls.new) ancestors = list(cls.__mro__) ancestors.reverse() # Start with __builtin__.object for ancestor in ancestors: for clsname, clst in ancestor.__dict__.items(): if isinstance(clst, AbstractMethod): abstractmethods.append(clsname) else: if clsname in abstractmethods: abstractmethods.remove(clsname) abstractmethods.sort() setattr(cls, '__abstractmethods__', abstractmethods) def new(self, cls): if len(cls.__abstractmethods__): raise NotImplementedError('Can\'t instantiate class `' + \ cls.__name__ + '\';\n' + \ 'Abstract methods: ' + \ ", ".join(cls.__abstractmethods__)) return object.__new__(self)
The definition of Object becomes:
class Object (object): __metaclass__ = Metaclass draw = AbstractMethod('draw')
This has the final result:
>>> Point().update() Point.draw called >>> Object().update() NotImplementedError: Can't instantiate class `Object'; Abstract methods: draw
The error can be caught much earlier on when the exception is raised when the class is instantiated.
There is one remaining issue, which is that descendant classes of
Object which don't implement all the abstract methods
defined in Object can also not be instantiated:
>>> class FooClass (Object): ... pass >>> FooClass() NotImplementedError: Can't instantiate class `FooClass'; Abstract methods: draw
The code in the last article didn't do this, but the code in this article checks all ancestors for any abstract methods that haven't been implemented.

The number of packages that depend on libgnutls5 has
dropped considerably since the introduction of
libgnutls7. There are currently 22 binary packages
that depend on libgnutls5 in any architecture, and
only five source packages that have an explicit build dependency
on libgnutls5-dev.
The ultimate goal is to get libgnutls5 and
libopencdk4 out of sarge before it is released.
I am sending email to the maintainers of these packages, so
please, if you maintain one of these, change your build dependency
to libgnutls7-dev | libgnutls-dev.

When complaining on IRC about the time I spent on writing articles for this weblog, someone jokingly said that I should put a PayPal banner on my website. But I tend to hate paypal.
But another thought struck me then, which is that I don't want to recieve any money for the work that I do for this site. All the texts on this site are licensed for redistribution, as long as you give me credit, and keep the copyright notices intact (details). I don't do this because I'm so philanthropic, I just want anyone to be able to take my texts or code or images or anything else, and modify it for their needs and redistribute the result.
Basically this has happened long before I came into contact with the free software movement. I had written some code that I wanted to give away to friends. I saw that they were using it, which felt good. But I was young and naive at that time.
Later I found out about the existence of Linux, and the idea of choice appealed to me. I installed it, and gradually became aware of all the projects that surrounded it: the GNU Project, the Free Software Foundation (FSF), the League for Programming Freedom. As time went on, I came into contact with GIMP. To install it, you needed lesstif. I had heard of Motif before, and I thought it was good that there was a project that wanted to provide a free version of it. That lesstif has been licensed under a non-free license for a long time didn't bother me then. It was better than nothing.
Gradually I became aware of the real reason for the existence of organizations such as the FSF. I started releasing my own code under licenses such as the GNU General Public License (GNU GPL).
As I started to become more involved in the free software movement, starting with the GNU Translation Project, I came into contact with the real values of licensing code under free licenses, and I learned to understand not only the virtues, but also the responsibilities that come with code released under the GPL. Being a user of (almost) only free software, I was already aware of the expectations of other programmers, and I learned to apply those feelings to my own software.
My code became free, and my mind followed. It was a gradual process, but I can't say I'm sorry it happened. I'm glad. But paypal still sucks.

Usually, when people ask me if I have a religion, or if I believe in something, I usually answer “no”. My parents are both atheists, I wasn't baptized. When I have to put a little more nuance in that, it becomes “I believe in Nature.” But I don't mean Nature to be some higher order being like some people see mother nature. So I change it to “I believe in science.”
“But there are some things that science can't explain.” (usually they refer to the metaphysical) — bzzt, wrong. There are things that science hasn't yet had a chance to explain. (And there are things that science explains, but nobody wanted to know about.)
There are people who don't know how to handle science, there are those who don't know how to handle scientific results, and there are those who just Do Not Get It. There are a lot of generally accepted principles that apply to any scientific research. These principles have influenced the way that scientists do research since the middle ages, when research in western Europe was generally intended to support the Catholic Church in their doctrine.

I have just uploaded gnutls10 1.0.4-1 in all its glory to unstable. It contains new binary packages, so it'll take a while before it shows up in incoming. Let's hope it's still in time to get released with sarge…
The only thing that was keeping it is a solution to bug #224846. I was unable to reproduce it for a while, until I found the culprit: it turned out that the chroot that I'm using to build packages was contaminated with latex2html and a few other tex-related packages. Removing them made me able to fix it quickly. Instead of rebuilding the documentation, I'm now just using the upstream version of the postscript file.
For those who want to test it before it hits incoming, and I know there are some of you who do, you can also get it from my package archive.

I finally made the theme for this website (http://www.lychnis.net/) available for download: lychnis 1.5.
The theme needs at least these plugins: better_title, cvs, headlines, sitelinks, theme, writeback, xhtml. Some of these plugins required tweaking to make them work, sometimes I had to correct the HTML code in them to be XHTML. I'll get these changes published once I've cleaned them up, or maybe I will submit them to the original author(s) of the plugin.
The original idea for the layout is copied from a design on OSWD, called libra. Among other things I changed it to be XHTML 1.1 compliant and to make more use of CSS.

My new domain lychnis.net is alive, and I created a
brand new website for it. Take a look at the information about the
site to find out what it means, or just go there.
The new site is also based on blosxom, with a few minor modifications to some of the plugins (most notably the hide plugin). The articles are the same as in the weblog. Only the most recent article is shown on the frontpage, the rest can still be read by clicking on weblog in the navigation bar at the top.

After reading Fruit's Source Code Style, I have taken the document and modified it to match my own coding style. The result is this Coding style guide. Thanks to warp and Garion for their comments. More comments are always welcome.
It basically documents the style that I like to program in. This will differ from other people's. It is certainly not prescriptive, only indicative of what I think yields readable source code for any project.

I made the theme that I'm using for this page available here: version 0.1. It's pretty easily customizable with CSS. If your browser offers the possibility to select alternative stylesheets when viewing this page you can try it now to get an idea of what would be possible. The theme itself is loosely based on the iztsu theme.
The theme needs at least these plugins: archives, bloglinks, breadcrumbs, categories, find, htmllinks, readme, sitelinks, theme, writeback, xhtml. Some of these plugins required tweaking to make them work, sometimes I had to correct the HTML code in them to be XHTML. I'll get these changes published once I've cleaned them up, or maybe I will submit them to the original author(s) of the plugin.

In the header of the page you'll see a new bar, with a list of shortcuts to more information on my website. To do this, I took the bloglinks plugin and changed it to a sitelinks plugin. The change to the code is minimal, the only thing that's really different is that it expects the contents to be aligned next to eachother instead of in a list structure. You can download the code here.

What's that, did Hell just freeze over? I didn't see this one coming, but now it's possible to compile lisp code to python bytecode with lython…
On the website it claims that the lisp code “resembles common lisp.” I took a look at the example code fragments that are distributed with the code. It looks as if lython is just a wrapper for python, that takes lisp syntax and translates it to python syntax. And it's only the lisp syntax that has been implemented so far, no native lisp functions (all function calls are directly translated to python function calls). But Common Lisp is so much more than just syntax, it's a massive amount of function calls. These will have to be supported before lython becomes a useful program. Until that time, I fear that lython will be nothing more than a toy to scare your friends with on a cold winter night.

Debian, this blog is being syndicated with others via RSS.
It appears that Blosxom

Someone has been complaining that the fonts on this website are too big. This comment touches a subject that I've often enraged myself about: default font sizes in browsers.
For some reason or other, Microsoft ships Internet Explorer with a rather large default font size setting. People aren't exactly inclined to change anything, so most of the IE users will be using this default. This has inspired web designers all over the world to specify smaller fonts on their websites, to make it look acceptable in IE.
Mozilla ships with a default font size of 16 points, I always change that to 12 points to be able to read pages that don't specify anything in a comfortable font size. This does mean that I see websites that were designed for IE (which is a bad thing to do at any time) with very small, nearly illegible text.
I designed the layout of this website for my own browser, and it looks good (well, acceptable) in Internet Explorer, when you change the font to “Smallest”. I will not change the size of the fonts here, people should configure their browsers to display fonts in the size they like. If you keep the default of IE or Mozilla, you get what you asked for: large letters.

A very happy new year to everyone!
I'm sure you all have some new year's resolutions. This year, own resolutions are simple:
