剛剛看完一本舊的科幻小說《Blood Music》，這是一本與 NanoTech 和細胞學為主題的書。但結局不太明白，網上也好像找不到有人討論。解謎因子作祟，特此記下自己對結局的理解，並看看能否拋磚引玉。

賭片係九十年代初興過一輪的片種，我細個既時候都睇好多賭片，就好似零食，其實你唔知佢有咩好味，但成日會同身邊既人一齊食，好似佢已經成為左你鍾意既食物。賭片亦係一樣，佢刺激、鬥智的氣氛幾令人著迷，完美
A brief sad note about root passwords
As far as I can see, the inevitable result of having several differentroot passwords across your systems is that a smart intruder whocompromises /bin/su on a single system will sooner or later collect all your root passwords.
(Or perhaps other people are better than we are at typing the right rootpassword at the current Password: prompt.)
(Please do not suggest sudo as the solution. For a start, we'd stillwant actual root passwords that are distinct from our own passwords.)
Social problems are the real problems
From a blog entry on the problem of email spam:
Charging even $0.0001 per message would make spam uneconomic, but aswith signing and other proposals, it seems socially infeasible.
There is a widespread attitude among computer people that it is a greatpity that their beautiful solutions to difficult technical challengesare being prevented from working merely by some pesky social issues,and that the problem is solved once the technical work is done.This attitude misses the point, especially in system administration:broadly speaking
叫口號與過度叫口號
實不相瞞，這個標題，我想了三日，整整三日，草擬了十幾個意思近似的標題，最後才決定用這九個字。
難決定，不是因為我不知道自己想表達什麼，放眼小城，翻開報紙，有哪一天不是充斥著口號的？有誰不是活在以口號代替

他已經不在了
終於，我鼓起左最大既勇氣，約妳出o黎。因為我想面對住你，講出我心裏面想講左好耐既說話。可惜果個落雨既晚上，果條濕滑既公路，果個粗心大意既司機，令我唔可以趕到o黎呢間咖啡室，親口對你講一句：「我愛你！」

Why charging for email won't do what people want
One of the common suggestions for fixing the email spam problem isto charge a small (often nominal) fee for email. Ignoring all of theproblems with implementing such a scheme, and ignoring all of the peoplewho would be violently against it, we can ask an important question:would it actually work?
Let's turn that around and ask the reverse question: has charging forpaper mail stopped paper mail spam? Clearly the answer is no; mostpeople get lots of junk mail, despite the senders having

Some lighttpd bits
Lighttpd is a popular lightweight webserver I've been experimenting with; in the process, I've woundup stumbling over various things that I should write down this time around (I played around with lighttpd about a year ago but then forgot a bunch of this stuff).
- unlike Apache, lighttpd's error log is global; there's only one, notone per virtual host. If you accidentally set
server.errorlogmultiple times (perhaps in virtual host setups), only the last onegets
