weewiki uses a custom org markup parser written in ANSI C to render the HTML. No emacs needed! my hope is to introduce a user-defined callback that can process these to allow for custom meta-commands.

Part of the wisdom of meditation lies in the following: There is baggage we all carry, the self, this belief we’re the center of it all, the author of (and subservient to) our own thoughts. How do I stop doing what makes me unhappy, if that’s “who I am”? But, in reality, I can abandon “who I am” and find new processes of living and new ways of thinking about the world.

I love it. I have a program that needs to processing about half a million records, which will take 3 days. The database that all those records are suppose to go to is acting up after I’ve just done 140K records.

Hot take: the existence of garden path sentences tells us that: 1) language isn’t so much a representation of meaning as a way of representing constraints for possible intepretation, and 2) we start processing before all the constraints have arrived

Reminders
“What did you have for lunch?,” the father asks while driving home. “Same as usual,” he replies. “And that is?” “I just eat random sandwiches of what comes to whim.” The father processes that for a bit. “I see.” Later, at home, “what’s there for homework today?” “No much,” he says. “Brush your teeth,” he is reminded. Later, in the evening. “Take a shower.” A few times.

Just before the father goes to sleep, and sees his bedroom lights on. “What are you doing up so late? … ⌘ Read more

Finding little to talk about

The main problem with Jekyll is that is out of the way. Unlike other weblog engines, which are managed via the web, I come to the shell to type and process this. Perhaps I need to research a better workflow?

I am finding little to talk about lately, and that is keeping things here rather quiet. It is not only that I do not have much to write, but that when the desire arrives it gets lost in translation, mostly because of the way I have decided to handle this little space of mi … ⌘ Read more

Electoral signs: my approach
On every single election “season” I can see a multitude of signs and advertising that often remains until “natural decay” or the city gets them removed, 6 months –or more– after the elections are over. That really makes me mad. I would make it part of the process of being elected: if you win, you cannot take over office until you clean up all your garbage. And if they don’t, a hefty fine gets applied, they get ridiculed and their seat is up for claiming.

Drawing a blank
I am drawing a blank trying to decided the new layout of this site. I have no problems with the previous one, but as I am running a new engine here I would like the layout to be new as well. I spent a significant amount of time yesterday trying to come up with something and all went to waste.

Perhaps I am procastinating until I see Wordpress 1.2 out, and have all links to be cruft free. Right now the paging, whether on c … ⌘ Read more

Good bye 2003!
Twenty one days is a long time without talking to you. Yes, you, the one reading here at this very moment. Even though I had my reasons I am afraid they were way too lame to be used, so I am not bailing out. A lot has happened since the last post, let’s recount.

At work we had had the most controversial and lenghty hiring process ever. It has been going throughout the whole month, more or less, and still extends to the new year. Moods changed, feelings were hurt. In all and all, I think it will en … ⌘ Read more
