Atom versus RSS

David Heinemeier Hansson in the comments on one of his entries :

Joe: Atom is just RSS without the bugs. [...]

What he said.

The more I've learned about syndication formats, the more thankful I'vebeen that I picked Atom way back when .(I'm not sure why I chose Atom; possibly because it seemed the more upto date of the choices at the time, since it had an RFC in developmentand all.)

V煞 – 齊來看煙花

V for Vendetta

《V煞》講的是一個人的革命故事,在極權的統治下 V 挺身而出,開始他的革命,以炸彈喚醒長久被壓的人民,甚麼才是真正的自由。本片嘗試將這場革命寫得轟轟烈烈,卻只流於華麗畫面和滿口理想,未能震懾人心。

尋找他媽…的故事 – 笑看性別傾向

transamerica

相比起《斷背山》兩個牛仔幽幽的同性愛情故事,《尋找他媽…的故事》想講的東西更多:同性戀、變性人、孌童、家庭倫理等等。誠如片名一樣,主角帶著兒子穿洲過省,在旅途上互相認識,雖然背景複雜誤會多多,但最終還


The backend for our recent mirroring

Since I alluded to it in passing in an earlier entry , I might as well describe what I know about how THEMIS set up their systems to handle theload. (Disclaimer: this is second and third hand.)

不知是什麼時候開始
每逢星期日下午至星期一早上都會默默想著一個to do list
通常是越想越多千頭萬緒
不過要do的事沒完沒了

驚嚇性溫情小劇場:雙魚座.同盟

前提:身體不適,衝擊啟蒙再度失敗。其實有些感動的事一直想記下來,先記一件。 下文帶有驚嚇性的溫情。

今日是3月21日,雙魚座的日期終於過去。在生日的黑暗期間,收到陳景輝的一通電話。他說我們都是雙魚座,周某
