An observation from changing my password

I've changed my password at work, or started to change it at least (thiswill be an extended process). Doing this has reinforced some things thatI know but rarely think about, and exposed a surprising inconvenience inhow I do things.

The big thing is that you don't really remember how many machines youhave accounts on until you try to work out how many different places youneed to change your password. This is not really an issue for users (ifus sysadmins are doing our


A plan to deal with my feed reader problem

I have a feed reader problem, one that has long ago reached epiclevels: in practice, I'm not actually really reading feed entries.For years, Liferea has been telling me that I have thousands ofunread entries and I have been ignoring them. I think it's time todeclare feed reader bankruptcy (which is much like email bankruptcy ) and deal honestly withthe results.

(This will be a bit traumatic, because I'm somewhat obsessive aboutsome things. It hurts to consciously and


富裕感

誰會覺得自己窮?我相信誰也會。

很多人概嘆現在的小孩子,身在福中不知福,但這根本是人類的本性。習慣使我們失去富裕的感覺,試問,誰會因為一扭水龍頭就看見自來水,於是感到自己其實生活蠻不錯?至少香港人不會。

沙發衝浪 Couch Surfing

我到馬尼拉的住宿計劃是頭一星期住Hostel,之後便找CS幫忙。

The laziness of a programmer, illustrated

At work, I have fallen into the bad habit of keeping a lot of iconifiedFirefox windows around, full of various things that I am going to readsometime (honest). As I've mentioned before ,I have all of these iconified windows very carefully placed andorganized so that I can find them again and keep track of them.

Naturally, this makes quitting and restarting Firefox kind of a pain.I have Firefox set to preserve all of the active windows and tabs overrestarts, but it doesn'


What's Wrong

One day, while discussing the mystery of our patient at the hospital corridor, my colleague who has a passion for automobile mechanic cautioned, "Oh man. If we want to be honest, let me ask you how many times are we doctors certain with what's wrong with our patients?"

Slushy nonsense? Not a bit of it! For some reason I'm amazed at his cruel and frustrating (though certainly true) statement. Consider an eightysomething man who came to the hospital with a bit of cough

很喜歡《綫人》,將林超賢前作《火龍》的溫溫吞吞感覺一掃而空。
