一個難譯的字

我的研究專長是知識論,在知識論裏有一個經常出現的英文字,卻不是哲學術語,而是平時也經常會用的字: "belief" 。這個字,我認為很不容易譯成中文。

動詞"believe"不難譯,一般譯作「相信」便可,難的是名詞"belief"。"Belief"

Share a Proxied Network Connection via WiFi to your iPad/iPhone/iPod

For the past six weeks that I've had my iPad, I've fought with my office network, because it uses a Microsoft/NTLM authenticated proxy server which wreaks havoc on the iPhone OS's ability to use the Internet effectively (especially for third party apps).

After reading through countless forum support requests for people asking the same questions, I've finally found a (mostly) workable solution for this problem—at least for most apps and browsing on the iPad.

Why I am really unhappy with ZFS right now: a ZFS import failure

We almost lost a ZFS pool today. More accurately, we did lose a ZFSpool, and then we were able to get it back because we were lucky enoughto have a Solaris 10 update 8 test machine handy. But except for thatbit of luck, we would be in the very uncomfortable position of tellingan important research group that for the first time ever we'd just lostnearly a terabyte of data, and it wasn't even because of a hardwarefailure, it was because of a

Jeff with Nikon D3

It's my semi-annual love affair with the world's best SLR. Plus, a hefty but amazing 70-200mm VR zoom lens (it's the older model, but still incredible). I get to use this killer combo, along with a Canon 5D mark II (what a combo!), every year for deacon and priesthood ordinations. My poor D90 gets left home alone. I hope it doesn't perform any shenanigans.


The Office of Web Development [UPDATED]

[ UPDATE : Post on the Archdiocesan website about the new Office of Web Development .]

At a meeting with the Archdiocesan Curia yesterday, Archbishop Carlson thanked everyone for their service in the Archdiocese, and he also talked about some changes that will be put in place in the next few months to help the Curia better serve Archdiocesan parishes and organizations.
