都說純真早已消逝，我看《狼羊物語》時，就是不能當成是簡單的「友情歲月」故事，總是胡思亂想。
《狼羊物語》設定了一個很有趣的題目：一隻狼 (卡夫) 與一隻羊 (阿咩) 在誤打誤撞下成為好友。他們要面對的，不單單是
fork(), wait(), and threads
Something I've discovered through (painful) experience is that threadedprograms cannot portably fork() in one thread and then wait() forthe forked process in another one.
This will work in some environments but fail explosively in others; theone I stubbed my toe on was a Linux 2.4 kernel based system (without NPTL , which is the usual state of affairsfor 2.4-based Linux distributions).
Admittedly, mixing threads and fork() is a bit perverse, butsometimes it
How not to set up your DNS (part 11)
Presented in the traditional illustrated form:
; dig +short ns hinet.net.tw.reg.hinet.net.tw.www.hinet.net.tw.hinet.net.tw.
This looks good, except for the fact that they all have the sameIP address, 210.65.1.231. You would think that a large TaiwaneseISP would be able to afford more than one DNS server, but perhapsthey're too busy beefing up their network

「如果在地文化已變成一種模糊的指涉，作為文化表徵之一的藝術創作領域中，創作者將如何處理自己身份的問題，進而透過創 作，體現並釋放蘊含其中的慾望與能量？這種對於身份的想像是值得思考的，因為當人們面對作品時
How not to set up your DNS (part 10)
This one is a close variation of HowNotToDoDNSIX , but it earns extrapoints for making the reverse error from a common one. Presented insemi-illustrated format:
; dig +short ns system-bank.net.dns01.system-bank.net.dns02.system-bank.net.
(At this point I will pause to note that dns01.system-bank.net anddns02.system-bank.net have the same IP address, 218
Most new products are upgrades
Most new products are upgrades of old ones. I don't mean in the senseof upgrade sales (although that too), but in terms of the code they'rebuilt from; they are revisions of existing codebases, not freshlywritten from scratch.
This has extremely rational economic and developmentreasons, as articulated by Joel Spolsky amongothers; there is a lot of money and value in existing codebases. Butignoring all the arguments about cost and captured knowledge and soon, there's another big reason

在我家附近有個 「農墟」 是賣有機農產品的，每星期日開檔9am-5pm(除了第一個星期)。如果知道星期一二都在家食飯我都盡量幫襯一下這些有機菜的，也因為有機菜的成本高所以價格也會高一點，但問題正是越少人幫襯，
