Dutch PHP Conference

Friday, June 13th, 2008

So, am sittig in my hotel room, after spending way too long getting here, drinking tea, and using up the Wifi.

It doesn’t actually start till tomorrow, so not much to say - but I shall probably blog some more.

Good night out tonight, with a few of the Speakers, some good conversation, though really dissappointed that everywhere stops selling food at like - 10pm. Which is about when we got to the hotel. I think I’ve had a single bitterballe (or however it’s spelt) - roll on breakfast tomorrow morning is all I can say - and dissapointed that the place we went to only had two kinds of beer, or wine…. :(

Still, all good fun, looking forward to tomorrow. Just not liking the fact I have a single bed. I haven’t slept in one for 6 years!

War Dialling ?

Monday, January 7th, 2008

When a few people in IRC noticed Daniel Silverstone’s post about his new phone number, that started a whole conversation regarding whether his number crunching alogorithm was good enough.

I made a lovely script in PHP, which told me the numbers that it could have been.

There are 67786 combinations that it could be, it took me about 27 seconds to find that once I’d written and debugged the code.

It’s an interesting puzzle, so if you’re bored, why not write some code and see whether you can get the same answer?
