Turning my attention to things other than work...
@knowncitizen Blu-ray does reveal CGI limits in movies older than, say, 2004. I find it a little distracting.
@llimlib Laws on 'fiduciary responsibility.' Risks were obfuscated, not quantified. CEO $ based on stock perf, not care of beneficiaries' $
China scandal: Head of agency resigns, executives arrested. America scandal: Government bail-out and power-grab, executives walk. Discuss.
@voidspace Isn't it "you're not a real geek if you don't suspect that you could somehow improve on Lisp"?
Happy Fall!
Last week before a 3-week vacation. Expecting to work myself into exhaustion, from which I will recover 2 days before return.
Failwhale to larboard! From the depths of Hell I stab at thee! Arrr...wait .... I be a pirate, not a cursed yankee whaler

Consultants: Do you charge clients for taking 2 minutes to respond to an email? If yes, how do you charge?
@qrush Book writing not _directly_ as lucrative, but "I wrote the book" >> "I wrote articles" for follow-on consulting gigs
Should I switch to billing in Euros? Does the Euro have the same order of risks the USD does? Or should I start invoicing in troy oz of au?
@kevindente My humiliation is complete: I own a hardback first-printing of The Princess Bride and I misquoted it.
