Stuff Michael Meeks is doing
|
|
This is my (in)activity log. You might like to visit my employer
Novell which is an amazing company, and also
Dell who in days of yore provided me with a
free laptop for Gnome development / conferences.
Also if you have the time to read this sort of stuff you could enlighten
yourself by going to Unraveling Wittgenstein's net or if
you are feeling objectionable perhaps here.

Up early, half day today; my 2^5th birthday. Poked mail,
caught up with happy hackers, kiwi fiddling with more success,
image debugging.

Got some great presents, some fine sacred music on CD;
and an interesting book Sustainable
Energy without the hot air - an extremely fascinating,
colorful and in (many) places droll
text. Also available for free on-line as above. I believe
David JC MacKay is the man behind Dasher -
and as such something of a Gnome related genius; a must-read. I
was particularly struck by the energy
cost of a single return trip
to LA, being in excess of a 1kW fire being on non-stop on all year.
Though being only on chapter six myself, I can't recommend it highly
enough.

Out to a violin lesson with Naomi; good to see her
improving. Laura baby-sat, and out for a meal in the evening: lovely
to get out, alone, with the lovely wife for once.
In case it's not painfully obvious: the reflections reflected here are my
own; mine, all mine ! and don't reflect the views of Novell, The
Lithuanian Gov't or Arnold Schwarzenegger. It's also important to
realise that I'm not in on the Swedish Conspiracy.
Occasionally people ask for formal photos for conferences,
bio.
or fun.
