太忙也會寫下去
周日主持了一個有關小小說的工作坊，有大約二十位聽眾，朋友覺得人太少，他認為如果在報章事先宣傳一下，會有更多人來。我卻覺得沒有問題，要來的，總會來，而且宣傳的事是主辦單位安排的，我只負責準備內容和講解，
神和苦罪：一個簡單的問題
最近正在寫一篇關於the problem of evil（中文一般譯做「苦罪問題」）的論文，主要是反駁著名基督徒哲學家 Peter van Inwagen 對這問題提出的解決辦法。他的論點相當刁鑽複雜，雖然有趣，最終卻是無力。我不是要在這裏介紹他的論點和我的反駁
I don't understand how net.ipv4.conf.*.rp_filter can work
First, the background. net.ipv4.conf.*.rp_filter controls some IPaddress source validation filtering done on incoming IPv4 packets. Ithas three values:

My avoidance of Python global variables
I spent part of today writing a quick one-off data conversion program.The core of it was a function that filtered items from a list througha number of things in order to sort them into the right category.
