So, I had some time on my hands last night and decided I wanted to put together a set of Farscape user icons. I didn’t do anything ultra fancy here.

Starting Weight: 18 stone 8 pounds.
Current Weight: 17 stone 13 pounds.

Holy, trumped-up, balled-headed, Jesus Palomino!
So not missing the SNARK. I made the mistake of popping over today to see what all the noise was about and just got slammed in the face with the memory of why I stopped going in the first place.

Recently I’ve been doing a lot of work, in my spare time, trying to get SpamAssassin to be more intelligent about catching SPAM. It uses a bayesian learning system, as described in Paul Graham’s A Plan for Spam, and therefore needs to be taught. This means, unfortunately, that I’ve had to actually look at a [...]

Something’s gotta go wrong ’cause I’m feelin’ way too damn good…

August 20th 2004

Ok, so I put this out there elsewhere, but it was at the end of the thread of discussion and maybe folks had already fallen off it and moved on. So, I decided I’d put it here where I could directly ask those of you who follow this blog.

For those of you who might not quite believe that I live in the middle of No-Freakin-Where™, there’s the satellite photo courtesy of the USGS. This shot is from back in 1998, so it’s slightly different now, but not much. My house is the one smack dab in the middle of the picture, in the [...]
