Hendrik Scholz has made a great case in his article FreeBSD source keyword statistics that FreeBSD hackers should stop writing comments, or lie when writing them

In his article on Great Hackers, Paul Graham works on how productive coders actually like to work. This is a little piece I hope my current, my future and my past employers will read. While I’m sure they are heaps of exceptions, this is very much how it works for me. So if this is the kind of work I’ll be doing, do read.

An interesting site is http://www.seewhatyoushare.com where a lot of documents and images have been revieled that apparently have been shared through P2P networks. Someone learn the military how to use a computer. Anyways, the really great picture among them is this:

Remember Seinfeld’s sketch with Kramer and the hot coffee? Well… happened to me today. You know it’s a dangerous occupation when you have to go three stories to get a good cup of coffee

They’re trying out a discussion/planning forum for the Ringve early music summer course at olavsfestdagene.no. Nothing fancy but I’m sure it does the job.

I was at the jazz festival in Kongsberg friday together with a good friend of mine from ODU. There I met a friend I lived with in Australia and a friend from secondary school and his girlfriend. Good stuff. We got to see Bobby McPhee at The Thing w/McPhee & Cato Salsa Experience and Palace of Pleasure, although with the last concert I loved the warmup band while PoP didn’t really perform but sing and play bass to playback-only. Not much of a performance. Today is cancled for my part as I had to go back to Oslo to fix a server that crashed during the night. Bugger! (the damned thing ran out of swap and locked out all) We had a couple of concerts lined up and it’d been fab being there. The feel of the place was great. Everyone was friendly and outgoing and we got to chat with heaps of nice people. Wish I could’ve stayed.

I was better prepared this time. A really strong coffee, and loads of food. Fishmeal in a cup, mix with half water/half coffee, drink, drink water, drink coffee, eat food, more coffee… I can get through this

One and a half hour ago, I had my first cup of fishmeal mixed with water. It was such a shock I almost vomited, and I still feel it crawling up, trying to get out of my stomache. Not delicate at all. I was aware that the taste and smell was repulsive, but I can’t have mixed it out allright, ’cause it felt like sand mixed with water. Ugh… oh well, at least I’m prepared for my next cup tomorrow. I’ll be sure to have a good cup of coffee around, then. Now I had only chewing gum, and I assure you that there’s no amount of gum to chew that can instantly make the taste and feel in your body go away. I’m taking it on the recommendation of a father of a friend of mine who’s a nutrition researcher. Together with a couple of tablets, this should help protect my arms and my general wellbeing. I’m quite convinced this is a good thing, but ugh…

I came acrossJohn Blade’s Homepage and found his hack for allowing the wp-mail feature to import pictures. I’ve been thinking about doing it myself, but good seeing John did it already. Besides, he’s from Brisbane.

I haven’t figured out what all the fuzz about Dahsboard is. I gave Konfabulator a shot once. Looks nice when you’re using it, it’s good for server monitoring etc. Sorry for the Konfabulator guy that Apple made a smiliar product. I hope he at least had a chance to strike a deal similar to what the guys who made Panther’s filebrowser got. Anyways, Konfabulator had a problem, and Dashboard has the same. An Apple-blogger sais it right out:
Dashboard is (from a browser geek’s perspective): HTML sidebar panels liberated from the browser window and placed anywhere on the screen. Meaning, using it gives you nothing but clutter on your desktop. Big deal? Probably not, but you’re not going to get good information here as you’re training yourself to ignore it. Worse yet, when the Konfabulator widgets fail, they often more or less stall, making the ready-at-hand/present-at-hand discussion relevant again: it will jump up at you and annoy you when it fails. I don’t care if it’s failed when I’m not reading the information, and because I’ll be trained to ignore it, it’ll be nothing but a hassle. When I get 10.4, I’ll be sure to turn it off straight away, just like I never wanted to use Konfabulator much.
