Technical Writing
I wrote the following articles because of my inability to remember anything longer than 5 minutes and for my love of quick and easy copy-n'-paste solutions.
- Generalized JScript
- Configuring a Wiki on a resellerspanel.com account
- Update Torque Engine SDK for VS .Net 2005
- WTL Wrappers for WinMain's CodeMax syntax highlighting edit control
Technical References
This list is comprised of technical information that I have either blatantly plagiarized (well, that’s not true: I do site all my sources, when I can remember them [there are surprising fringe benefit from this for me: if I only pick parts of the material I find relevant at the time, I can always refer people back to the source for further details on the matter—who knew University would be that helpful]) or have written. Most of it comes from firsthand experience and more often firsthand frustration, so there may be huge gaps of crucial information in the topics I touch on. I take no reasonability for this. It is not my fault I haven't been exposed to the all the same frustrations as everyone else has—thank, uhmm, who ever that great creative creator woman up there, in the starts left of planetary body, Pluto, is supposed to be for that. I'd probably be dead now if I had. And then who would have plagiarized, I mean written, all of this for you.
