		<title>Infrequently Asked Linguistics Questions (IALQ), No. 1</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Q: “How many constituent trees fit on a single A0 poster in style?” A: “886” Disclaimer Just to be clear, this is really old work. I just happened to find the old draft in my WordPress instance and regenerated the poster. Genesis Back in 2009, I had entertained the idea of pretty-printing parts of the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Breaking Event Cycles</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A recurring problem in (not only) GUI programming are event cycles, i.e. the receiving of events oneself has triggered. These can quickly lead to event cycles, where change triggers change triggers change, until something gives out—usually the stack. A particularly cheap way of breaking cycles are simple boolean flags: class Foo&#40;object&#41;: listen = True def [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Beginnings After the bleak, joyless work of releasing software, plugging holes of preventing users from clicking buttons they should not have clicked in the first place, writing unctuous documentation and release notes and wrapping code into neat little installers with tiny bows and bells that gently tingle when touched, there are few things as profoundly [...]]]></description>

		<title>Yes, Master.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My Master thesis &#8220;Integration of Light-weight Semantics into a Syntax Query Formalism&#8221; is available from the SALSA project pages. Abstract In the Computational Linguistics community, much work is put into the creation of large, high-quality linguistic resources, often with complex annotation. In order to make these resources accessible to nontechnical audiences, formalisms for searching and [...]]]></description>

		<title>Scrollable Widgets with PyGTK</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It is possible to write custom GTK widgets that have &#8220;native&#8221; scrolling support, as opposed to just shoving them into a GtkViewPort and forgetting about them. Apart from having mastered a small coding challenge, as it turned out to be, this also gives you greater control over the scrolling itself, like making sure that certain [...]]]></description>

		<title>New Hardware</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Even before I started working at UZH, I got my new hardware. Back in February, when I visited Zürich to look for rooms, I was offered to choose a new notebook for myself. Since I already have a large notebook (at least that&#8217;s what I consider my 14.1&#8243; T61) and toyed around with the idea [...]]]></description>

		<title>Immer weiter</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Wenn man sich die Mühe macht und auf einer Karte alle Stationen der letzten Jahre miteinander, kommt leider kein sonderlich spannendes Gebilde zusammen, im Sinne einer interessanten unterliegenden 2D-Struktur (Kreis, Pentagramm, Kassiopeia, Dependenzbaum) ist meine bisherige Umzugsaktivität also ein Misserfolg. Das einzige Muster ist eine leichte Alternation zwischen Nord- und Südumzügen (Süd-Nord-Süd-Nord-Süd), der nächste Umzug [...]]]></description>
