Next on the list of Corporate Whores is another sad one for me, as Frankie Muniz [archive.org link] who was sighted whoring out to some snackfood company that uses blue tinfoil…. ah how the mighty have fallen. Wow, Boston Public [archive.org link], one of the only TV shows I try to catch on a consistant […]

cough *hack Sleep late due to hacking (not the computer type). Wake early due to not being able to breath. Oh, dee paaaain…. In the afternoon it’s not so bad, but in the morning and evening this throat/cough thing is brutal on me. In the midst of this, I did manage to get some things

This week has been busy. We finally got the latest project work at work to a state where it doesn’t suck, and demoed it to the boss. Actually went relatively well, and the one error that was encountered wasn’t mine (ha!). We’re actually approaching the stage where we can give it to the techs and

Upped my speed on my morning run to 6mph… probably not a good choice when you can’t really breath and are hacking up phlem. When I finished I felt like passing out, but I did it. The problem is that from now on it’s only going to get worse (and worse, and worse). Last night

Had a decent squash game this morning. Unfortunately we’re not at the stage where we can actually have a “real” game and have fun. We’re beyond the point of walking to get the ball every time you hit it, but not quite good enough to compete. I had a good discussion with Del about Microserfs‘

The above is a quote from Neil Stephensen’s novel Cryptonomicon [archive.org link], which I started reading again after some rave reviews from Silverstr [archive.org link] and Foz. The quote is in reference to mail encrypted with such a high form of encryption that it would take centuries to break, and in response to the question

Lets see, the last time I went to the gym it felt like monday because it was the first time during the week that I had gone. Having the lady at the front desk say “Have a good weekend guys!” was like having Christmas all over again. This monday was nowhere near as good. By

Messed up dreams…. I was a this huge PNE type display, not a display, but more like a rodeo. There were lots of people, and in the dirt below the stands are lots of boy scouts. I have no idea why I’m there, but I think I’m trying to solve a crime of some sort.
