世俗兩難

該怎麼看教會被世俗化呢?

這個問題嚴肅得會改變很多人的生活,甚至信仰本身︰假如世俗化是有害的,那麼我們必須要棄絕那些屬於俗世的嬉戲,需要以落入世俗娛樂為恥,因為那將會損害信仰的純正,要避免使用世俗的語言

佛誕又講一下…

想不到台灣的夜總會真行,找那些舞女去接客,免費上床,加上一句我愛你,騙那些宅男幫其贖身。被騙者三萬多人,金額過億....特别提示:被騙者多是電腦男的精英......台灣還真是一個女人的天堂...男人笨


不是Guru Dutt的電影 《12 O'Clock》


嚴格來說, 《12 O'Clock》(1958) 不是Guru Dutt的電影 (為什麼Eros Films會歸納為Guru Dutt Collection?) . Guru Dutt只負責演出. 除了導演和編劇等決策崗位外, 影片儼然是Guru Dutt慣用的班底: Guru Dutt, Waheeda Rehman, Johnny Walker, Rehman, Uma Devi (Tun Tun).

有效率的盡責

我系的同事大都是很盡責的老師,但沒有人及得上J。J兩年前在UCLA拿了博士便來我的大學當助理教授,是個笛卡兒專家,旁通中古哲學。他人品極好,有料子卻無半點傲氣,對學生很隨和,教書盡心盡力,頗受學生歡迎。

古惑仔夕陽之歌

莊文強是個很有趣的人,看他的樣子便知道。劉偉強說過,《無間道》的傻強角色,是看著莊文強來寫的。

偶爾看見他在幕前客串,也很惹笑,像《內衣少女》中,


Users Are Stupid - a Guiding UX Principle

About a week ago, a road near my condo was closed off due to construction. Prominent signs were placed at three separate junctions warning drivers to take a detour. Judging by these signs, a rational individual would get the hint and turn right, avoiding any unnecessary danger to his life or his vehicle.

Unfortunately, users (and drivers) are NOT rational when it comes to most decisions. They have a goal, and they'll do whatever they think is best to achieve that goal, whether or not it

自戀的人有兩種,一種是不停把自己的活動情況寫上 facebook 的人,一種是不停在 facebook 上回應別人的活動情況。

我們都生活在自戀的時代,科技令每一個人都可憑一己之力向所有人發聲,於是


莫強求

許冠傑歌仔有唱「命裏有時終須有,命裏無時莫強求」,其實這兩句說話自古有之,《增廣賢文》有錄 。我不信命,所以命裏有時命裏無時云云,對我來說是廢話,對很多人而言則可以是方便的借口,失敗時、怠惰時、失之交臂

An example of an API that you can't do with C stdargs

(This is a followup to yesterday's entry .)

Update : I'm actually completely wrong about this, both in practiceon x86 machines with gcc and, I believe, in standards-compliant theory,as brought to my attention by nothings in comments.

One general class of impossible-in-C varargs APIs is heavily polymorphicdispatch APIs where you need to dispatch to one of several differentvarargs functions that have different constant arguments. Here is agratuitous (and probably bad) API example:
