Ramblings of an aimless mind. Just another Wordpress.com weblog. Leave a comment ». I am a huge fan of puns. They can be delightful little buggers, completely undeserving of that accusation of them being the lowest form of wit. It takes sharpish minds and good command of language to create and understand one so I cannot see what is not to like. Here are a few. I would love to claim them as my own but I ripped them off an email that reached me from the depths of the internet. But he loved her still. Said:...

Ramblings of an aimless mind. Just another Wordpress.com weblog. Removing the “System Tool” malware. Leave a comment ». Apparently, this is a “System tool” malware (it has the same name as the helpful program). Removal was fairly simple, simply boot into windows XP safe mode with networking then download and run Malwarebytes’ Anti-Malware. To get rid of it. Possibly any other anti malware program will do the job as well, but I am listing this one as I got the name off McAffee forums and it worked. After ...

Ramblings of an aimless mind. Just another Wordpress.com weblog. 8220;IT’s Life” is the title of a cartoon series I used to run while not having much to do in a previous job. I ultimately ended it when I switched jobs and had to actually work. By fortunate circumstance, I got hold of what I think are most of the drawings from that time and in a blatant act of self promotion, decided to publish them on the web. The whole series can be downloaded from here. It does make things a lot easier you know…. Build...

Ramblings of an aimless mind. Just another Wordpress.com weblog. Privatised education vs. Mobile Telephony. Leave a comment ». Proponents of the free market and private profit driven schools and universities often cite mobile telephony as an example of how markets cost effectively produce high quality service.

Ramblings of an aimless mind. Just another Wordpress.com weblog. Separating exams and learning. The UN has recently launched an online university named University of the people. That may be OK for traditional universities since their priority is to educate people from a certain country/state/region first and do it well. A university aimed at a global audience, with the aim of making access to education more democratic can benefit from a slightly different game plan, namely that of separating the teac...

Ramblings of an aimless mind. Just another Wordpress.com weblog. Leave a comment ». Some time ago, I blogged about my idea of an education system that separated exams from learning. And thereby allowed students to have more liberty in choosing how to get the classroom component of their education while earning their desired qualification. Today I learnt of MIT’s new fully automated course on circuits and electronics. While this new development has me excited about the direction education can take in this...
