Hey Mike.
Sophia called.
She wants to know why you buy such crappy Christmas presents.
Have a spare hour to squirm a little? Andrew Bacevich on Bill Moyers Journal.
(#)Off to the studio this week to record a Christmas album. It's approximately 158 degrees in Burbank so I'm in an appropriately wintery mood, of course. Any suggestions for how to invoke the spirit o' the (not yet in) season?
(#)Anybody else having freak-out issues with connecting to gmail via imap?
(#)"First, we will set up a single goal to represent educational success, which will take four years to achieve no matter what is being taught. We will attach an economic reward to it that seldom has anything to do with what has been learned. We will urge large numbers of people who do not possess adequate ability to try to achieve the goal, wait until they have spent a lot of time and money, and then deny it to them. We will stigmatize everyone who doesn't meet the goal. We will call the goal a 'BA.'" [link]

No joke - I’m pretty upset with Sophia right now. Without my permission, she setup a root cron-job to update the debian install on our server, and it complete wiped out my apache.conf file, replacing the whole install with apache2-mpm-prefork.
I mean, she fixed it, but still. It was like 2 hours of downtime while she recompiled.
and now, the beatings.
That answer was 98% geek. And what you get for not using a strong password on your superuser account.
This author’s hilarious! Very nice Microsoft-brainwashing in a children’s book, did you find it on Gizmodo? They have the whole book here… a good laugh: check out the fifth narrative page from that link…
Funny, I think of myself as a “Stay-At-Home Server.”
