在 BFSH 看到一本叫 Stand 的 Webzine，內容頗豐富，而整本 Webzine 是用 Flash 做介面，模擬一本書本的樣子，可以揭頁，有書籤等等，真的是名符其實「網上雜誌」。不過，我認為做網上雜誌，這種介面其實並不合適。
基於紙張媒體在設計上比起傳統
Google Desktop and conditional GET
Some people using Google Desktop have been pulling my syndicationfeeds recently, which gives me the opportunity to see how well GoogleDesktop implements conditional GET .Unfortunately, the results are either mixed or unclear.
(At this point I have to repeat the disclaimer from my earlier entryabout this: I like having readers and we have a lot of sparebandwidth. This is absolutely not a request for people using GoogleDesktop to stop reading my feed.)
Google Desktop appears to sometimes but not always send (valid)If-

An explanation for the popularity of threads
Today, I had an insight (possibly an obvious one) about one big reasonwhy threads are such a popular and widespread method of doingconcurrent programming:
Threads are so popular because they are so easy to implement. I don'tmean 'to write programs in', because they aren't really; I mean 'toadd to languages and language environments'. Unlike other models ofconcurrent programming, adding basic threading to your environment oryour language takes very little work. So threading implementationsproliferate like weeds

關懷遠
（我就是喜歡提醒淮遠他本叫關懷遠。）
知道淮遠的人不多，但知道淮遠的人多半喜歡淮遠，而喜歡的人多半都是很強烈地喜歡。黃燦然堅持淮遠是私密珍蔵，（並以他的方式補上一句「唔識貨既人唔駛理佢！」）樊生則會心虛

我要 Popup!
現在設計網頁，一般都不宜用 Popup 視窗賣廣告，因為瀏覽器一般都有擋 Popup 的功能。不過，Popup 並非萬惡，只要專重用戶決定，Popup 視窗是很有用的。
在一些寫作的介面上，Popup 便很有用，開一個小視窗打字，背景可以開其他的參考資料。
Dropping packets versus rejecting them in firewall rules
There's a reasonably popular view that having your firewall dropundesired packets instead of sending ICMP rejections is 'moresecure'. It is not; instead it is 'more annoying'.
(Technically this is not quite true; in a very limited set ofcircumstances, dropping all packets for a host can hide someinformation from attackers. The flipside is that dropping some but notall packets usually leaks information about what you're screening.)
Dropping packets is more annoying because attempted connections haveto time out before
Weekly spam summary on December 3rd, 2005
I'll lead with Hotmail's spam numbers:
- four emails accepted, and I know for sure that two of them werespam.
- 239 messages rejected because they came from non-Hotmail emailaddresses.
- 24 messages refused because their sender addresses had already hitour spamtraps.
- 10 messages refused due to their origin IP address (5 in the SBL, 4in the CBL, and one from Nigeria).
The case for banning Hotmail entirely becomes more and morecompelling. It's probably time
