A Letter to Vice-Chancellor Johnson - The Slightly Disgruntled Scientist
http://heeris.id.au/2015/letter-to-vice-chancellor
The Slightly Disgruntled Scientist. Now 7% more viral! A Letter to Vice-Chancellor Johnson. Sun 3 May 2015. Last week I sent a letter to Prof. Paul Johnson. Vice-Chancellor of the University of Western Australia (the school what I went to). The letter concerned his recent decision to circumvent the usual decision making processes and just throw university resources. At a “consensus centre”. Set up for professional climate-change-water-muddier Dr Bjorn Lomborg at the bequest of our current government.

Rubbish Review Debut: The Noontec N5 NAS - The Slightly Disgruntled Scientist

The Slightly Disgruntled Scientist. Now 7% more viral! Rubbish Review Debut: The Noontec N5 NAS. Sun 19 Jul 2015. I recently became the proud owner of a Noontec N5 network attached storage (NAS) enclosure. I bought it because I needed:. Network access to the contents of a large hard drive. USB access to the contents of a large hard drive. The cockroaches could not be removed. It’d probably void the warranty anyway. And eventually even Wireshark. The N5 boasts USB 2.0 access, which is great for me bec...

Qanda's Razor - The Slightly Disgruntled Scientist

The Slightly Disgruntled Scientist. Now 7% more viral! Sat 13 Jun 2015. You come out of the event, ready to say this, but. Tells you first: “that was really one sided. They really set up my side to fail.”. Is it necessarily the case that one of you is right about the debate having an agenda, and one of you is wrong? Well, maybe, sometimes. But I think we often leap to this conclusion far more often than it actually applies. I think what’s also likely is something I call. Exactly the same problem. But as ...

The Slightly Disgruntled Scientist. Now 7% more viral! A Hybrid Kali/Debian Wheezy Live Distro. There are two things that I particularly love doing: security auditing, and tinkering with live distributions. It is very intriguing to see exactly how weak or strong your own electronic devices are against various attacks, and sometimes very contrary to expectations. Without the USB: it’s my old laptop again! This gets even better if you’re dealing with embedded systems, systems with no permanent storage, etc.

Specific Niche: Do you even lift, bro?
http://specificniche.blogspot.com/2012/12/do-you-even-lift-bro.html
Tuesday, December 11, 2012. Do you even lift, bro? I really quite like working in a gym, on the whole. I get to talk to people who are positive and motivated to look after themselves. I get to encourage people to make a good change in their lives. Best of all, I get to perve on shapely lads while being paid. He greets absolutely everyone, every time, with "howyadoinorright? With every repetition, a little part of my sanity dies. And he calls me Katster. I am not a Katster. I am a Kat, a Katherine, a ...
