天下無敵與無能為力

天下無敵與無能為力

幾個同事聚集在我的房間,一邊東拉西扯說說是非,一邊收看A股的網上路演。老實說,這種在網上chat room回答公眾提問的玩意,我還以為只會在tvb.com的電視劇討論區才會出現!中國是個奇怪的國家,定出了

The funding capture problem

Here is a cynical truth:

No matter what they say, organizations eventually wind up workingfor the people who give them money.

This is a natural result of the fact that very few people everdeliberately try to put themselves out of a job. Organizations aredriven to perpetuate themselves, which requires that money keep comingin, which requires that the funding sources be kept happy, and beforeyou know it the organization's interests have become aligned with thoseof the people who give it money.

This sounds unexceptional,

Huh?

異同的裙擺

智海傳來,確是有趣。最後「試釋是事」四個字撈多一筆,最是促狹。《施氏食獅史》是一篇由 趙元任 所寫的設限文章。全文共九十一字(連標題九十六字),每字的國語發音都是shi,看可以看懂,讀出來則完全失去表意功能。

文學的事



收到澳門筆會新一屆會員大會的召集通知時,我在想,又一屆了,這幾年,我寫過什麼?我做過什麼?然後我暗自忖度:其他朋友,會不會這樣想呢?


我放在寫作上的努力是很有限的,要細說理由,可以長篇大論,我想,跟

A modest suggestion about test accounts

Here is a modest suggestion that has recently occurred to me:

Don't give your test accounts the same password as your regularaccount.

It's not that I'm all that worried about security issues; it's that Iwant to avoid accidentally logging in as one account when I'm tryingfor the other. With separate passwords, I have to make an absent-mindedmistake with both the username and the password, instead of just theusername, and I figure this improves my odds.


自覺

人類常常有許多盲點。看不到,無從察覺,不懂裝懂,是因為自大,不細心和自以為是。

報紙每日刊出大量新聞,網上無間斷提供大量訊息,但真正通曉政治,了解時事,掌握經濟趨勢的讀者,究竟有多少人?

可愛的人們,什麼

這個週末,又無得行山。

「個天咁灰,天雨路滑,今個週末,都唔駛旨意有得行山或者跑都步喇。」Sophie如是說。


Running a 32-bit Firefox on a 64-bit Fedora or Red Hat Enterprise

It turns out that it is pretty easy to run a 32-bit Firefoxon a modern 64-bit Fedora or Red Hat Enterprise system,something that is periodically convenient. (For example,the current Sun ILOM client needs the 32-bit version ofJava. Maybe you could run things with nspluginwrapper , but I prefernot to take chances with a machine's console.)

First, you need to make sure you have the 32 bit version of Firefoxinstalled. I don't
