Haven’t babbled about myself very much lately. This is because I’m getting a mite stressed about a paper which is supposed to be done on Friday, and my data sucks. Still not sure what a ninja would do in this situation, but my reaction has been procrastination, mostly.
On Monday, I hurtled down two different “black diamond” ski slopes, and survived. Not bad for day three of skiing.
Yesterday, I spent the day in our data center, running disk fixer-upper programs to repair the flubbity-futz from a power failure over the weekend.
Mostly I wanted to link to this post by JWZ in which he notes that:
But let me rephrase that story:
* My personal cleaning robot has malfunctioning hardware.
* The manufacturer sent me a piece of hardware to update the software.
* That software fixed the hardware.
I just felt a bit like I was living in the future for a minute there. I got a little chill.
