「搞笑」是所有男性的必修科，三十歲以前就必定要學習好幾個笑話，能夠在宴會飯局或是閒聊之中逗大家一下，才可以稱為擁有健全的社交能力。即使三十歲以後的男人，大多數就只有同一系列笑話，講完又講，但畢竟
End results versus what's inside the black box
One of the divisions in technology is between people who mostly careabout the end results and people who care (sometimes very passionately)about what is inside the black boxes that they use. The former sort saythings like 'the Pentium is the best-performing CPU right now'; thelatter say things like 'the SPARC architecture is far more elegant thanthe ugly hacks of the x86'.
(This division is not exclusive to computer hardware, but computerhardware and especially CPU architecture is a common hotbed

這不是基佬戲。
是關於兩個相愛的人。
一生。
一死。
所以分離。
生不如死的那位不願苟活。
一切寄出的思念從今以後「無此人」。
許久沒試過在黑暗中落淚，但看著銀幕上他悲慟的神情，我還是要拿出紙巾。
一齣好戲，不
得罪人的說話
我一向直腸直肚，不吐不快的說話大多會第一時間吐出來，所以經常得罪人。以下是記憶所及的幾個例子，寫在這裏，以為戒。
大學時有個同學跟我說他在看一本書，打算和我討論一下書的內容，我卻說：「怎麼寫得這樣差的書

Why the pam_mail PAM module is not my friend
Traditionally, one of the things that the standard login programdid when you logged in was to look at the state of your mailbox andreport 'you have (new) mail' if this was the case. This worked wellwhen everyone logged in to Unix systems on serial terminals, sort ofwell when people used telnet and rlogin (both of which actually run login ), and went downhill when SSH became common, because SSH does notrun login at all.
Clearly the right solution (in the PAM world)
品味歧視
品味或者會是女性主義者的一個難題，因為女人的口味，到底是發自她的內心，還是社會的產物，可能仍是懸案。
在這個社會裏，甚麼人應該做甚麼事，是有一個定位的，這些來自群眾的期望即使是非理性，甚至是不合理都好，

請不要把愛簡化
一談到愛，基督徒必會搬出〈歌林多前書〉十三章四至八節：
「愛是恆久忍耐、又有恩慈，愛是不嫉妒，愛是不自誇、不張狂、不作害羞的事、不求自己的益處、不輕易發怒、不計算人的惡、不喜歡不義、只喜歡真理，凡事包容

星期二的故事
因為看了J那感人至深的 《幾個故事》 ， 我也想說說一個星期二的故事。
阿媽到中環出巡，與我相約在地鐵站外等候，到我的家坐坐。
一邊跟友人煲電話粥一邊等阿媽出現。
忽然，拿著電話的我，dead air了兩秒。
不是因為她終於現
Mythology about Unix workstations
Talking of Unix workstations , there's somemythology about them that seems to go around, or at least that may begoing around and I feel like preemptively shooting down.
First, people who think that 1990s era Unix workstations were marvelsof performance and features that have yet to be surpassed either have avery selective memory, were using very high end hardware from SGI, ornever really used those workstations. I have used everything from Sun3/50s onwards, and I can assure
