Testing ChemDoodle Web Components

A better way to do this with static HTML is probably loading the data into a hidden frame.

Although it's not a good psychology survey, it's still fun.

Can't get rid of this from my brain.

Try to write it down and forget it :-)

Way up west (way up west),
there’s a story told (there’s a story told)
about a bunch of cowboys.

Tiny and bold. (tiny and bold)
Ridin’ tall. (ridin’ tall)
Tall in the saddle!
Herdin’ cows the size of schnauzers
but they’re cattle!

Lactococcus chaodoufuii

This strand of Lactococcus is surely funny. It's in Taiwanese with an accent.

I am not even a 50% geek?!

Very disappointing.

I am 35% Geek.
Geek? Yes, but at least I got social skills.
You probably work in computers, or a history deptartment at a college. You never really fit in with the "normal" crowd. But you have friends, and this is a good thing.

"同學們 正義面前要謙卑" # http://udn.com/NEWS/OPINION/X1/4595900.shtml 【聯合報╱謝大寧/民主行動聯盟副總召集人(嘉縣民雄)】2008.11.11 02:35 am

對於你們提出的主張,我們當然是感到欣慰的,在集遊法的修正議題上,我們其實是戰友的身分,因此我們也要和你們一起公開呼籲,立法院早日落實已經有的修法方向,否則如果真有那麼一天,當施明德先生再因集遊法而坐牢時,恐怕人民就不會輕易饒恕執政者了。但是,我也希望你們能夠想想,到底是什麼原因,導致你們在當年沒有站出來?
呃,因為草莓們還沒上大學?

Useless, not so cool rsync trick

rsync -e 'ssh -x host1 ssh' -avx --delete --bwlimit=1024 --exclude '*.spotlightIndex' host2:Documents/Papers/ Documents/Papers/

This let you synchronize files if you can't connect host2 directly and don't want to transfer it twice. However beware of the broadband problem since you might trigger DoS protection on host1... my solution is to add '--bwlimit=1024' ...

NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth0: transmit timed out
tg3: eth0: transmit timed out, resetting
tg3: tg3_stop_block timed out, ofs=2c00 enable_bit=2
tg3: tg3_stop_block timed out, ofs=1400 enable_bit=2

Placebo to squeeze more usable physical memory

Well, you can just allocate a big chunk of memory and release it to push some idle process to the virtual memory (swap).

program bigmem
   implicit none
   double precision, allocatable :: thebigmem(:)
   integer ierr

   ierr = 0
   allocate ( thebigmem(1:195660000), stat=ierr )
   if (ierr/=0) then; print *,"error   allocating"; call exit(1); else; continue ; endif
   thebigmem = 0
   deallocate ( thebigmem, stat=ierr)
   if (ierr/=0) then; print *,"error deallocating"; call exit(1); else; continue ; endif
   print *,"success"
end program
But it's still like a placebo.

By the way, check this commercial out.


Considering that former first chair of oboist Alex Klein won a grammy ... it's funnier.

Nice Troll

12:18 < abc> xyz: hey man, i love freebsd as much as the next guy, but its time to face reality
12:18 < abc> xyz: there's also the issues of copyright indemnification
12:19 < abc> xyz: its a proven fact that linux torvalds borrowed AT&T code when he wrote FreeBSD
12:19 < abc> it was proven in court!
12:19 < abc> and you're a corporation running freebsd servers, you need support. who are you going to call? GNU?
12:20 < abc> i need support for windows servers... i call MS on the phone, give them my credit card number, and they fix my problem right there... BAM!
Following figure is totally irrelevant.
