My neighbor the opera singer sure practices a lot.

I've moved 20+ times previously, but today was the easiest by far. The agile, lean, Tofflerian home: no stuff, no worries. Very liberating.

Whew, found the mother of all bugs. MAP_FIXED is very useful, but not a little dangerous.

Excellent live support from @Namecheap to resolve a tricky situation. They remain a cut above the rest among domain registrars.

The new SSD-equipped production cluster is sustaining write rates of 250+ MB/s per machine when importing & indexing new data. Goodbye, EC2.

Wishing the Ubuntu devs would bite the bullet and adopt systemd. The current SysV init + Upstart + Monit combo is a kludge by comparison.

Excited that Chuck Moore's asynchronous, 144-core Forth chip is shipping at long last, and at a $20 price point: http://bit.ly/ga144chip

Looking forward to one day being able to ping an implant for self-diagnosis versus guesstimating concussion severity from 2nd-order factors.

Woke up smack in the middle of the mammalian brain making sense of an abstract data structure. A synesthetic glimpse beyond the curtain.

Our new European production cluster is almost 'go'. Refreshing to work with non-virtualized, capable hardware again. Leaky abstractions FTW.

I think I need a vacation.

I keep reading 'persistent inverted index' as 'perverted index'. The wrong kind of speed reading.

Explaining content-addressable storage (CAS) is so much easier these days, what with the popularity of Dropbox which is built on it.
