Took my Political Compass [archive.org link] test today: Economic Left/Right: -4.08 Authoritarian/Libertarian: -4.55 I’m apparently a Libertarian Left, and about the same area as Gandi, and opposite to Hitler. What does that actually mean? No clue 🙂
Keep me as far from Hitler as possible. Read Post »
Today was un-productive. I got some code done on the encryption stuff for ulisten, but a lot of time was spent getting in and out of code-mode due to various interruptions, but self-induced and otherwise. Mailing list crap with stuff about distro wars, package format wars, and whether person x is right and everyone is

Been feeling “blah” lately. Irritable, bummed, and half my body is cold while the other half is sweaty. Weird. Not sick in a sick way, just “blah”. Stayed home from work today to that end, and feel a little better. Got some stuff fixed up and some other problems dealt with (see below). Feeling better
Ok, a night of rest was good! It was later than I thought (11:45) but I still felt much better when I got up in the morning. So where was I. Oh yea, looking forward to fixing more bugs and putting some new functionality into my stuff today. There’s a lobster dinner thing that Silv

Wow, 6pm and it’s been a full day. I was actually up at a half decent hour. Well, 10ish. Heck, even made it out of the house by 11:58! Long long day of shopping. And I hate shopping. At least it wasn’t Christmas shopping, which is what I hate most. Maybe one of these years

Well, a relatively busy last few days. Last friday I came home with a nasty bug. Programming bug that is. Basically in one situation a function would work just perfectly, and in another it would simply stop, no matter what I did. So I got in and worked till about 2am on this. Next morning

Thought for the day: Q: How can you tell the difference between when your body is in a state of perfect relaxation and death? A: You can’t. Long day. 99% of it in meetings. Productive meetings, don’t get me wrong. And meetings in The Nest, so we were sitting on couches for the whole day,

First of all, happy Mothers day to everyone, or at least, all mothers, grandmothers, great-grandmothers, and above, and most of all to the ArcterMom, who has put up with me for the last 25 years or so. Love you mom. Quick Sunday night TV wrapup. Simpsons was unusual as normal tonight. Malcom in the Middle
