DoneDone SOAP API doesn’t seem to be working (for me, at any rate) and JIRA 3.8’s SOAP API uses RPC encoding, which JAX-WS 2.0 doesn’t like.

Using DoneDone Web Services with Apache CXF 2.2.x

I ran into an issue while trying to hook into DoneDone’s web services.  Apparently all of the session management in .NET web services is done at the header/cookie level, which is not really a SOAP standard.  Given that I’m using Java (CXF specifically), I needed to do some horrible hackery to make this work.  Here is the net result!  Note: please realize that it is 1:40 on Sunday morning - this is quick and dirty; I wanted it to work before I passed out.  There is NO elegance to be found here.

I unlocked the The Challenger achievement on Trials HD! http://ping.fm/cRG73

Game reviews: Red Faction - terrific. Trials HD - tons of fun. Batman - Arkham Asylum demo - need the full game already!

Weird, custom reCAPTCHA validation doesn’t seem to play nice with HttpClient, but is okay with manual URLConnection stuff. Bah.

Technology Kills

Reading about clouds and using big distributed datastores and crazy caching… I have to remind myself that scalability is something you think of during the initial phase, but don’t worry about until you start hitting ceilings. Always have to tell myself to get something out rather than get sidetracked by features.

I have to admit that a part of me dies a bit whenever I read a blog post about somebody liking a tag-based MVC framework over Wicket.

So, TTC, is there a reason why you screwed all the windows shut on a brand new bus, then let the driver not turn the AC on? We were all wet.

Does Safari 4 have issues with multiple monitors? A lot of popup windows are on my main window, which is where Safari is NOT.
