It looked like the perfect trip across to AU: the train connection was good, so even though I had a 9am flight from Geneva to Newark I could leave my house at 6am and still make it (even after dinner at friends' the night before, but that's another story). The flight itself went well: I'd […]

I've been meaning to do something like this for a while, ever since I bought a Flip video camera, back in July. Here's a (nearly) 10 minute segment where I talk a little bit about myself. If you found this interesting (or boring and irrelevant) please say so in a comment. Be sure to let […]

Today is a national holiday in Switzerland: the Jeûne Fédéral, or national fasting day (here is some related information), although I have to admit I haven't done anything of the sort. In fact I may just have done the complete opposite. Oh well. I didn't get the chance to put together a technical post for […]

Many of you will have noticed the blog's new design. Hopefully you will find the new look both pleasing to the eye and easier to read/navigate (I personally like the new design very much - even down to the way the comments are now listed and something as fundamental as the font's typeface and colour).

Just a quick post... I've been (and am still) on vacation this week (not doing anything very exciting, mostly cutting hedges and other miscellaneous garden work), but I queued up a few posts in order to keep things moving along while I was offline. One of the posts I put together was regarding the API […]

Well, that came around quickly. Today is the 2nd anniversary of my first post to Through the Interface. I'll keep this one short and sweet, but expect something meatier in the next day or so. 🙂

Like many thirty-something Brits (and possible non-Brits, for all I know) my earliest introduction to the world of graphics programming was via a language called Logo running on the BBC Microcomputer. This machine and its educational software were commonplace in UK schools in the 1980s, and I have clear memories of staying late at primary […]

I'm in San Rafael today, at Autodesk's headquarters, to present F# at an internal meeting. I've just come in for a few days, so rather than adjusting to the Pacific timezone I'm settling for living on Eastern time: I get up at 4am (whether I like it or not 😉 and go to bed as […]

Well, through them, anyway. Just letting you know that I'll be away from my desk, and from this blog, for the next week or so. We're heading through the Alps to Italy: first to Milan and then down to Ascoli Piceno, where an old friend is getting married. We decided to take the train, which […]
