As in: the browser Git uses when you call git web–browse URL/FILE git config –global web.browser opera git config –global browser.opera.cmd opera When support for Opera is released in Git v1.7.4 the second line should no longer be needed, but probably won’t hurt.

Vad vill Sverigedemokraterna oss?
Posted in Nonsense on September 22, 2010 | 2 Comments »
Efter det tråkiga valresultatet är det frestande att ropa “Hitler kommer!” och raljera över hur dumma medborgarna är, men det är ganska osakligt och tjatigt. Eftersom min underbara fru är nybliven invandrare har jag istället “roat” mig med att läsa Sverigedemokraternas invandringspolitiska program (cache) för att se vad de har att erbjuda oss. Den härboende [...]
SRT research
Posted in Nonsense on August 20, 2010 | 6 Comments »
Discussions in the WHATWG and W3C over several months have led up to the announcement of a new <track> element and the WebSRT format. WebSRT is intended to be mostly compatible with existing SRT content and software, in order to hitch a free ride on the popularity of SRT. Unfortunately, there was never a proper [...]
Ett blocköverskridande hack
Posted in Nonsense, tagged Piratpartiet, Val2010 on August 4, 2010 | 4 Comments »
Piratpartiet ställer upp i valet och siktar på en vågmästarställning. Som en del i denna strategi tar Piratpartiet inte ställning i några andra frågor än de informationspolitiska och kommer istället att rösta med sina samarbetspartier, vilka det nu blir. Själv hoppas jag verkligen att de lyckas, så att Ask/Bodström inte kan härja fritt i ytterligare [...]
My father’s wedding speech
Posted in Nonsense on August 3, 2010 | 2 Comments »
As promised, here is the speech my father gave to me and Nga at our wedding, in Swedish, English and Vietnamese. At the wedding, my father spoke in Swedish, while Lan translated into Vietnamese. The English version is a bi-product of the translation process. Svenska Nga och Philip – idag är en stor dag – [...]
Wedding in Hanoi
Posted in Nonsense on June 23, 2010 | 15 Comments »
Last Saturday I and Nga got married here in Hanoi. The temperature was a scorching 42°C, but still 450 guests (8 Swedish) defied the sun and came to share the day with us. This was the first time I had ever seen Nga wearing make-up, so I was quite worried I might not recognize her. [...]
VP8 has landed

Today, WebM/VP8 was announced at Google IO. The last month I have been working on adding support for Opera and we have now released labs builds for Windows, Mac and Linux. We have also published an article for web developers who want to start using WebM <video>. Here’s what it looks like, the Sintel trailer [...]
I’m getting married! 我订婚了!

The 9th of December was Nga’s 25th birthday, so to celebrate we went on a trip to Hong Kong. We stayed at the very fancy Mira Hotel, which was a very pleasant experience. It is a tradition in my family to serve cake in bed on birthdays. Ideally it should be a hand made cake, [...]
Microformats vs RDFa vs Microdata
Posted in Nonsense, tagged html5, microdata, microformats, rdfa on August 23, 2009 | 18 Comments »
Warning: The microdata syntax has changed (e.g. item=”foo” is now itemscope itemtype=”foo”) since this blog post was written. Don’t copy the examples. I spent last weekend with my good friend Emil sketching a REST-style interface for his graph database Neo4j. One of the output formats we wanted was plain HTML for easy debugging via the browser.

Det är inte svårt att konkurrera med gratis
Posted in Nonsense on April 18, 2009 | 4 Comments »
Dagens ledare i DN är ett mycket märkligt stycke som inspirerat till viss ilska med nyckelord som katastrof, smörja och dum i huvudet. Jag tar tillfället i akt att skriva om något som ofta stör mig. DN skriver: Oavsett vad den slutgiltiga domen blir kommer den olagliga fildelningen att fortsätta så länge det inte finns [...]
