The problem of secrecy

The problem of secrecy is that it lets people hide their mistakes.People don't like admitting to mistakes, so if given a chance a fairnumber of people will actively hide them. And secrecy hides people'smistakes passively by preventing inspection of things.

Hidden mistakes cannot be corrected and cannot be learned from.Sometimes they become wrapped in layers of denial, preventing evenpeople in the know from doing anything, because to do something wouldbe to negate the denials.

Sometimes secrecy is passive, where people are


On the web, text colours are an all or nothing thing

Every so often I think about giving WanderingThoughts ' breadcrumbs barup at the top a background colour to make it stand out better (perhapsa nice yellow like Jakob Nielsen uses). Butevery time I've had that thought, I cringe at the amount of workinvolved and leave it alone.

It's a lot of work because on the web, there is no such thing asspecifying just one text colour property . I can't just specify thebackground colour for the breadcrumbs; I would have to


文輝出書

老友出書,我最高興。

去年我也為另外兩位老友出書而寫文章,甚至當主持。

每次有這些事情,我們也會擔心被譏為小圈子。

不過,算了吧!出一本書會有人眼紅,不出書也會有人眼紅,澳門有很多人患有紅眼症,總希望全世界

北海道五天精華遊


2005年12月3日至7日,與琪琪到北海道旅行,玩足五天,開心到極。

這是我兩年來首度請假去旅行,上一次,是2003年9月,那一次我們去了泰國曼谷,之後的兩年,工作天昏地暗,為了生活,失了尊嚴,也失了自

開這個地方,只是貪玩,可以有玩的心情是很幸福的,2006年,可能我會在這個園地出發,玩出更有意思的事來.

不斷的聯署.流失的早餐

遲鈍的學院派張某,起草了一篇 聲明 ,要求大專生聯署: 支持全球被壓迫的弱者, 為我們在地生活的城市挽回尊嚴! ──香港大專學生支持反世貿示威者聯署聲明〉 。這麼長的名字,幾咁唔嗅米氣。不過各位唸過大學的人,也

On the name of USB flash memory drives

I've been somewhat confused about what to call USB flash memory 'diskdrives' for some time, since I've seen several names. Courtesy of PeteZaitcev here ,who should know since he works on the Linux kernel USB stack amongother things, I now have a pretty definite answer; they are properlycalled 'USB keys'. A 'Memory Stick' (with the capitals) is somethingentirely different, and 'memory stick' risks being confused with it.

裡面,有一個好蠢的肥女子(上鏡真係好肥,我唔想再上鏡了),沾到少少胡椒噴霧。在她之後,可以見到一位年輕的南韓示威者,中招的程度不可同日而語。這在在提醒著我們香港人,我們的付出,
