優勝劣敗?

一個人無論多博學,所知的總遠比不知的少,一走出自己學識的範圍,如果仍忍不住指點評論,便容易說出貽笑方家的門外話;就算是學問大如錢穆者,亦難免此病。

在《現代中國學術論衡》裏,錢穆談到進化論:

Where We Shop

如果說旅行有甚麼地方會令人不滿意,也許就是對旅遊書的愛與恨。
香港人喜歡去旅行,而旅行書早就「自成一國」,不論是書展、書商或是圖書館,都穩穩佔據著一個重要的位置,即使不會是best seller的十大,但肯定長賣長有,而

Review: Nikon D7000

Jeff's Rating: 5 /5

tl;dr : A worthwhile upgrade to the Nikon D90, and an excellent display of Nikon's latest whiz-bang features. Best video recording abilities of any current or past Nikon SLR.

Nikon D7000 - Front

I just received my new Nikon D7000 SLR in the mail today, so I'm working on getting some images and videos together for a full-fledged review.

Developer Experience on the Mac App Store

This year, one of my resolutions is to become a more experienced programmer—not only in web development (I can hold my own with PHP, server scripting, and web design languages)—and one of the measurable achievements I'd like to accomplish is having apps on the Mac App Store and iOS App Store.

I submitted a new Mac App, Visibility *, on January 9, and was hoping the app might be reviewed quickly so I could experience a few days on the Mac App store soon after

前方,有一個擁抱在等

我與你的約定,大人不知道。抱著這個約定好久好久之後,我終於鼓起勇氣,出發了。
空氣由於我們的約定而發亮,樹林伸展枝椏彷彿咧嘴微笑。櫻花在我頭頂迎風飛

Review: iShot iPhone Tripod/Window Mount

Jeff's Rating: 4 /5

tl;dr : Another iPhone mount that doesn't fit my needs exactly, but works well and sells for a good price.

I was given a sample iShot 2-in-1 Tripod/Window Mount for the iPhone 4 from Abesco & Co. Design, LLC, a month or so ago, and asked to try it out, then post a review. So, here goes:

iShot - iPhone 4 Tripod Mount

I've already used my own homemade iPhone 4 tripod mount (which was

RETINA REFLEX III+REDSCALE+Retina Xenar 45mm F2.8

DKL mount的相機計有三部,呀,都五十幾歲的老機械了,觀景窗自然不是太見得人,這台retina reflex III是連Schneider Kreuznach Retina Xenar 45mm F2.8買的,45mm 2.8是比較少見,但結構嘛都是很精簡的,只有三枚鏡片吧,成像還挺不錯,可能用得菲林

由動生力

朋友問:「新的一年,很想尋找一個新的方向,做一些真正有意義的事,對於一個兩子之母來說,是否不設實際呢?」朋友只有三十多歲,正值盛年,但如此一問,似乎已露出了幾分倦意 --- 是厭倦的倦,也是疲倦的倦。因為

What I am trying to do with Django

To follow up on the last entry , what I amusing Django for is (re)writing our account request handling system.The simple version of how people get accounts here is a three stepprocess. The would-be user tells us at least their desired Unix login,their name, their email address, and which professor is sponsoringthem. We ask the professor if they actually want to sponsor the person'saccount; if the professor says yes, we create the account and email therequester with details


Yes

I couldn't believe it when my brother brought me the book Difficult Conversations , before he knew that I'm going to take a mediation training course this month. This book might not be new to you, but in case it is I should say that it comes from the same group who wrote Getting to Yes .

Think about the last time you felt the urge to get your boss, your spouse, your friends or colleagues to say yes. It's no secret that today many of us feel that
