I just made a few changes that effectively retires the static portion of my website. For several years I had a nice, funky, handcrafted, css styled bit of html living at www.jillesvangurp.com and publications.jillesvangurp.com. The design has been more or less the same since 2003 and the content was not evolving much either. Actually, most [...]
Also tagged sitechangesInspired by the hype surrounding the iphone and web applications, I hacked together a nice little toy to encrypt and decrypt text using aes. I borrowed the aes implementation from here and basically wrote a somewhat nicer UI for it. I still need to integrate sha1 hashing of passwords as the aes.js script [...]

If you are like me, you probably ‘receive’ mp3s occasionally. Unfortunately, most mp3s do not have proper filenames and generally have incomplete metainformation tags attached. I’m one of these guys who likes the songs on [...]

Also taggedBeercanCrusher. This is a demo application for Aspectj I created for my own pleasure. It is absolutley completely useless. The demo requires AspectJ 0.6 and won’t work on later versions. Porting is also not easy to do because some features [...]
Also tagged beerFSM framework. This is a small demo framework for creating and manipulating finite state machines at run-time. The nice thing about it is that I separated control flow (i.e. the structure of states and transitions), data and functionality. It [...]
