小說時刻
我說要寫短篇小說，說了一段日子，上星期六終於寫了，約四千字，愛情小說，星期日早上略作修改，投了給澳門日報逢星期五的小說版，等候刊出。
我很久沒有寫愛情小說，可能是我幸福，可能是時機未到，更可能是以前寫過

有一次，有人問我：「你係咪覺得佢真係好叻」，我說，是啊。
周某 年少時據說喜歡法蘭克福學派、崇拜福柯（不知其光頭與此有無關係），有渾名福周（全名法蘭福周）。一起做《中大四十年》，後來一起在讀書會啃齊澤克，

Moderation Rules
New technology and science make numerous dreams feasible. But it takes us long to realize that the spectacle of high-tech science does not necessarily make life easier.
"We won’t have long to wait to find out this," I told myself after my preparation of the teaching material for an intensive review course for doctors sitting for examination.
At a glance of recent medical literature, the rule of moderation strikes me. As a matter of fact, the title of this blog can be read either in the straightforward

How ZFS's version of RAID-5 can be better than normal RAID-5
ZFS's 'raidz' and 'raidz2' storage methods are single and dual parity,but they are not exactly the same as normal RAID-5 and RAID-6. Thedifference is in how each handles partial stripe writes, such as whathappens when you write only a small amount to disk.
In a conventional RAID implementation, a partial write to a stripe alsohas to update the parity, which means additional disk IO (at least adisk read and a disk write). Even if this

這是我認為最好看的警匪片
電影中個個男人都有男子氣慨
Robbert De Niro 和Al Pacino的演出精彩到極
咖啡店內兩雄相遇惺惺相惜實在是經典
不過我喜歡Al Pacino多一些
不是因為他演警察
而是他的噪狂和發脾氣都有深度有層次
他的角色難度較大

Speed surprises in reimplementing the .find() string method
In yesterday's entry , I mentioned that Iwas surprised by the relative performances of my three reimplementationsof the .find() string method.
The src[i:].startswith(sub) version was the slowest, and why isobvious in hindsight: it's summed up clearly in the first bit, where wecreate a big new string ( src[i:] ) on every iteration of the loop. Nowonder it's slow; creating big strings is slow in general, because
唔知自己想點, 淨係知自己唔想點
下文涉及個人情緒, 以部份廣東話寫出.
「唔知自己想點, 淨係知自己唔想點」, 確是現今廿零歲人既做人態度. 因為好多野唔到自己話事, 唔夠膽主宰自己命運, 無能力改變現狀之下, 只好退一步令自己唔會太輸蝕. 我係其中

An illustration of the speed advantage of Python builtins
As a followup to my entry on the two sorts of languages , I decided to actually tryimplementing the string .find() method in Python to see how muchslower it is. The Python version uses the brute force C style approach,roughly:
for i in range(0, len(src)-len(sub)+1): if src[i:i+len(sub)] == sub: return ireturn -1
I actually did three versions, each with a different
