When I was a child, at family gatherings, we. Would often play "The Game" our version of. Charades. We didn't use the sign language I've. Since seen charades players use, and we had. No restrictions on the choosing of phrases. We took a primitive approach to acting out. Oh, sometimes it was a movie, book or quotation. Which we could symbolize with gesture,. But the good ones were usually the PIs. Poetic Invention. Phrases invented purely for. The pleasure of watching the opposing team. Links to this post.

That may or may not be true, but filesystem links offer cool magic. However, the quality of explanans offered by Unix could be improved, and. The Python equivilent is flat out confusing. Ln [OPTION].

Turns out that's called 'Reverse Logistics'. Per usual, a line of thinking which struck me as somewhat original, did so only because of my ignorance. Dealing with bills of materials is called logistics, if you start with the stuff and are tasked with putting it to use, that's Reverse logistics. The definition talks about surplus and returns, the footnotes do include a link to Waste management concepts. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Turns out thats called Reverse Logistics.

Time as connective tissue. An expansion of applied synchronicity. The principle can be applied more widely, premised on logging timestamps on the following. Image(s) focused in viewer. Phone # active on phone. Email message currently focused. Voice recognition input provides metadata for one of the above resources, in a format like:.

Better if used before. As pervasive as their PR effort is, they keep a very low profile otherwise. All that Google seems to know is the work of an artist, looks wonderful, but it seems unlikely she's to thank for all the boxes proudly declaring 'Better if Used Before'. They evidently are deeply old school, however I think their mission is of such importance that it needs to leverage the advantages of the Web. I hope to act on that thought. Links to this post.

That is so wrong! Since I seem to be settling on 'Gumpa' as my primary brand* it seems only right to act my age and channel some codger energy. Hey you kids, GET OFF MY LAWN. This is my first post which will be tagged TISW. The metaphors used to discuss hierarchal data organization are SO wrong. Take the file system. It's often described as a tree, a tree with the root at the top, you descend to the files, which I've seen analagized as leaves. Darn you sloths, TISW. Links to this post. That is so wrong!

Before there were maps. Back then, I would describe the place I traveled to with a linear narrative. I would describe what I saw as I walked along . a grove of trees to my left, further along a cliff to my right . Frustration with communicating via linear narrative resulted in picking up a stick and making marks representing a visual model of the landscape in my head. These scratches evolved into the world of cartography and GIS we now enjoy. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Over My Head: Where should I put this stuff?
http://gumpablog.blogspot.com/2012/11/where-should-i-put-this.html
Where should I put this stuff? I just figured out a couple tedious little niggles: Why doesn't my samba mount line in /etc/fstab work in 12.10 like it did in 12.04? Why isn't git responding correctly to entries in .gitignore? They both are annoying to track down, and I won't need either one again for a long time. They are arbitrary bits, don't fit into a visualized construct which would aid memory, so I need to store them outside my little head. Don't bother, that's what google is for" I hear. SAQ: Seldo...

Links to this post. There, I said it again. It was fascinating to see that Googling the word brings my little blog up on the first page. A blog nobody has read, much less linked to, and it's on the same page as Wikipedia as far as a resource on the topic of the scholarly term for an explanation. There's a highly regarded templating tool project named Deliverance. Try finding information on that. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile.
