- Getting to and from the office was pure screaming Hell. Especially coming home. Reminds me why I mostly work from home these days, especially the part where I had to cut crosstown on Olympic and then the 10 to get the Harbor Freeway south because everyone was picking up Grandma at LAX. Plus rain, plus Holiday Stupidity Factory. One more SUV with a wreath or a bow on it, and it’s BAZOOKA TIME. |

- I was wrong. They must miss Karl. This game was terrible. The Lakers gave up 38 points in the second quarter, and the Warriors led the entire second half. Because Sacramento defeated Memphis tonight, the Lakers are now only tied for the Pacific Division/Western Conference/NBA best record with the Sacramento Kings at 20-6. |

- A recent posting to the lkml suggested that the udev project has unfairly hijacked the devfs project, leading into yet another lengthy discussion comparing udev to devfs, and questioning why the latter has been deprecated. Linux devfs was written by Richard Gooch and merged into the 2.3.46 kernel in February of 2000. Since that time, Richard has stopped maintaining it, though a number of issues remain. |

- Speech recognition continues to get better and labor cost keep rising, but, as an engineer in habit of jumping 'out of the box' like Jack does, I like to think about alternative solutions. Here is one that is amusing. I walk into a little corner restaurant in Paris to have lunch. |
