		<title>A quick tip with how boolean expressions are handled in PHP</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I can&#8217;t say this is specific to PHP, but this is another thing I see in code a lot, that kind of drives me nuts. if ($some_var == 3) { return TRUE; } else { return FALSE; } Because the == is a logical operator, the operation returns a boolean value. Boolean expressions like this [...]]]></description>

		<title>Welcome to the new host</title>
		<description><![CDATA[You may have experienced some down time earlier today. I&#8217;ve moved to a new hosting solution! It&#8217;s not permanently settled, I&#8217;ve still got a lot of configuration to do, so service may be intermittent. Thanks!]]></description>

		<title>Feedback wanted on email regex</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I just wrote an email regex. If you don&#8217;t know much about regular expressions, don&#8217;t use this regular expression on your website. I&#8217;m not claiming this regex to be amazing. I just sat down to write one, and I want some feedback. If anyone can analyze it, and maybe tell me what I am not [...]]]></description>

There just [...]]]></description>

		<title>Coding Pet-Peeve #1</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Variables declared, just for the sake of being returned. Example: function foo() { $a = 'bar'; return $a; } Try this, instead: function foo() { return 'bar'; } Simple, but this drives me nuts, and I see it all of the time.]]></description>

		<title>The Black Keys</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Just taking a quick moment for a public service announcement. A few months back, Pandora introduced me to a great band. I&#8217;ve been listening to them more, and more. If you are unaware of The Black Keys, now would be a good time to educate yourself. Amazon has song samples from all of the albums. [...]]]></description>

		<title>One hundred pushups &#8211; week 3</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Wow, so this is pretty much all I post about anymore. I don&#8217;t like that, and I don&#8217;t want to spam my blog up with posts like this. I also don&#8217;t want to look like a quitter . So, I have to post on here, just to say that I haven&#8217;t quit on the pushups. [...]]]></description>

		<title>One hundred pushups &#8211; week 2</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Today was the end of my 2nd week of &#8220;One Hundred Pushups&#8220;! The second week ends with an &#8220;exhaustion test&#8221; &#8211; to see how many pushups you can do before your arms physically cannot do more. Proud to say that, after just two weeks, my number went up by 10 whole pushups! Pumped and ready [...]]]></description>

		<title>Modulo Bias</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Programmers are often faced with a problem of picking a random number within a given range. The most common way to solve this is to take a random integer and compute the modulo of some smaller number. For example, assume the function rand() returns a random integer between 0 and an arbitrary maximum value, m. [...]]]></description>

		<title>One hundred pushups</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So, tonight, I completed my first week of One Hundred Push-ups. Feeling pretty pumped about it, already feeling better. Basically, it is a six-week program which is supposed to gradually increase your push-up stamina, until you are capable of performing one hundred consecutive push-ups. There is nothing ground-breaking about it. You do a few sets [...]]]></description>
