About Kluny

Software developer in Victoria, BC.

I write at http://rocketships.ca. My blog has no focus but I've written tutorials about motorcycles and cars, stories from travels in Nicaragua, Denmark and Spain, and progress reports on my side business importing Danish modern furniture.

    Can you really describe kids or parents with any kind of meaning using a binary "good" and "bad"? Aren't most people great in situations that suit them and allow them to thrive and…

    It's even stranger when you realize that probably only 20% of trips in New York are conducted by car, and yet they are by far the largest physical presence everywhere you go. Actua…
