Back from the dead
Posted in Website on December 19th, 2009 by nisburgh – Be the first to commentI’m finally back! The last three weeks have been grueling. Mondays and Wednesdays have seen me at ACC teaching my regular Linux class in Austin, then Tuesdays and Thursdays I have been commuting to San Antonio to teach a new Linux class at Northeast Lakeview College. All spare time was dedicated to making the new Linux course successful. Anyhow, that’s finally done for a few weeks, so expect to see some new posts!
Updates coming soon
Posted in Website on November 28th, 2009 by nisburgh – Be the first to commentI just wanted to say that I’m still here. Been super busy with the holidays and work. I have more projects to post about, just no time. Putting together a course for my new teaching position at Northeast Lakeview College in San Antonio. That’s taking a lot of my time. Plus, I’m taking the CISSP exam December 12th, which requires lots of studying. Hopefully I’ll find time to post some new stories! Like how I got an experimental version of my mesh network running a couple of weeks ago!

There are some hilarious comics and quizzes on this site. “How Everything Goes to Hell During a Zombie Apocalypse” is one of my favorites. =)
More software! This time some fixes to the Mirf library
Posted in Arduino on November 12th, 2009 by nisburgh – 4 CommentsI’ve added another Arduino library to the software page. This one is an updated version of the original Mirf library, used for interfacing with the Nordic Semiconductor RF modules, like the nRF24L01+. I fixed a bug, updated the code here and there, fixed one of the examples and made some other small changes. As I work further with the library, I’ll push changes up here if they’re big. The bug fix was a pretty big one, so I wanted to share it with everyone. Let me know if you have any comments or suggestions!

Software!
Posted in Website on November 9th, 2009 by nisburgh – Be the first to commentI’ve added a new page to the site! Software! I’ll try to clean up my more useful bits of code and put them up there, free for anyone to use and abuse. I’m always happy to get feedback, so don’t hesitate to let me know just how terrible the code is. 
The first bit unleashed on the world is a simple library for controlling status LED’s in your Arduino projects. Enjoy!

Rat's Nest!
Serious rat’s nest in a client’s wiring closet. I had the pleasure of toning out dozens of those circuits due to faulty wiring on the part of the install contractor.
