鼓吹外的選擇

社會上有很多團體喜歡發表聲明,而不幸地,這些聲明所得到的回應通常都是嘲笑。很難怪,因為好端端的發個聲明,如果是人所共知的事實,就沒有人感到興趣,但如果衝擊了大家的常識,恐怕會招致無情的攻擊,但如果是反

不要和自己的文章太親

我每次要學生寫文,都千叮萬囑他們不要寫完第一稿便立即交給我,一定要修改;因此,我至少給他們三、四個星期的時間。不過,大部份學生一於少理,在限期前一、兩天才開工,草成急就,全班二十多篇裏至少有十篇八篇垃

Olympus pen e-p2入手

入手有點時日,最近去馬來西亞出差,就帶上這OM仔,好好試一下OM藍的實力。

學一下Mobile01,玩一下開箱。由於自用的關係,我一向是不留箱的。反正這種電子機,出售都沒人要的。

Applying low distraction design to alerting systems

Writing yesterday's entry hasleft me with some thoughts on creating low-distraction alerting andmonitoring systems.

Review: Sony MDR-XB40EX Extra Bass Earbuds

Jeff's Rating: 3 /5

tl;dr : Solid performers for those wanting a bass-heavy aural experience and good isolation. The headphones can bring new life to some songs, but are often overbearing for those with sensitive ears.

Sony MDR-XB40EX Earbuds

Introducing... reviews by me!

For the longest time, I have wanted to share some of the research that I do to pick the best product for my needs, and some of the thoughts I have on a product days, weeks, and months into using it.

假如全世界智商最高的人是個女人

現時全世界智商最高的人是誰?除非我們可以測試所有人的智商,否則便無法知道答案。不過,假如問題是「根據《健力士世界紀錄大全》,現時全世界智商最高的人是誰?」答案便是: Marilyn vos Savant 。她的智商是228,是她十歲時

去color six晒了film…

好久之前拿了菲林上街去拍照,用的相機包括pentax lx2000和sp2。

這是拿lx2000去拍的,用的鏡頭是pentax a 50 1.2。這套機算是菲林機中的貴價品,比一套d90kit set還要貴。唉,手賤手賤。

那天有拿mamiya645 pro去上環
