05:25 I haven't really missed the software I haven't yet (re)installed on my clean-installed Windows 7 machines. Guess I don't need most of it. #
06:38 The cognitive techniques in "The End of Overeating" (David Kessler) apply to a lot more than food. Ending distraction @ work. Bye, Hulu. #
06:43 From the Department of Mindcontrol - toydragon: tumblr.com/xxu1vqgag #
07:22 They couldn't think of a name for the performance analysis tool that didn't result in the acronym "PCP"? Seriously? #
08:16 Kelley Polar's "Chrysanthemum" is a song that, due to lyrical content, would never be in Elite Beat Agents. Imagining the context is amusing #
08:24 It's visually obvious when I'm in "code mode" at work: my office gets wallpapered with API reference printouts. #
10:18 Advantage to the massive ASCII-art error box for symbol problems in WinDbg: it can be spotted down the hall by experienced users (like me). #
10:43 Working through a nightmarish database object model only navigable when I can figure out the designers' mindset and unstated intent. #
11:44 Link: Journey into Kimland - First-hand account of a vacation to North Korea. Fascinating and phenomenally... tumblr.com/xxu1vsyrz #
13:27 Another potentially catastrophic miscommunication/miscomprehension from my boss averted. I hope. #
21:21 Having listened with and without, I can honestly say that I never *really* heard 90% of my electronica without this set of Klipsch speakers. #

Wow, it was hard to tell whether that bit about ATD was real or not, toydragon. :)

That particular post was reblogged- reposted from toydragon.tumblr.com , which is not my account. (Reblogs are encouraged over links on Tumblr, mostly for attention-tracking reasons.) I'm just Kistaro there, too! (kistaro.tumblr.com)

Agreed; I read it and was like "...so is this something I can show my parents to explain why I spend so much time in fantasy worlds, or is this some kind of brainwashing thing?" It'd be interesting to find out if there are biological variations in people that predispose them to certain patterns of behavior in later life, but behavior is such a complex thing that it'd be very hard to narrow it down.

Interesting though.

That was pictures of NK. Here's a video.

It's still as bizarre.
