Why "hacks"? Because this is my "personal" page about technical stuff. See the jargon file's "Meaning of Hack" and compare with the definition of "hack." I am not a computer cracker (which journalists lazily equate with "hackers").
As of June, 2003 I am hacking Linux for HP.
I documented a dircproxy hack.
I suffer from ... The Knack.
In October 2000 I was on an industry panel at the International Symposium on Software Reliability Engineering. Read my paper, if you wish.
A while ago I posted an RFC about a stepping engine (used for process automation). I haven't given up using the Graphviz toolset as a front-end for creating Stepper processes and for visualizing operation of processes. I have a graph that is an example of a log file visualization. Also see the GraphViz page on the Design Patterns Wiki Web.
Speaking of wiki webs -- they are the coolest thing to come along since the Web! I talk more about them in the wikiweb section of my home page.
I don't like spam. In one URL I can sum up what to do about it: sneakemail.com. I wrote about plussed users and spammer e-mail harvesting (hacks@timchambersusa.com hasn't been harvested, yet :-) and also use that technique extensively. (TBD: I need to move my spam page contents because swiki.net has become unreliable.)
I founded the Pikes Peak Perl Mongers.
I've written a little about my philosophy of tools.

(My Geek Code is a snapshot of a time before June, 2003. I am
pleased that I have achieved one of my goals: L+++$.)
