umm, yeah... I knew my spelling as reasonably good, but I wouldn't consider myself a grammer nazi in general. That job belongs to editors such as those of the GWN.

Grammar Fuhrer
You are the grammar Fuhrer. All bow to your
authority. You will crush all the inferior
people under the soles of your jackboots, and
any who question your motives will be
eliminated. Your punishment is being the bane
of every other person's existence, because
you're constantly contradicting stupidity.
Everyone will be gunning for you. Your dreams
of a master race of spellers and grammarians
frighten the masses. You must always watch your
back. If only your power could be used for good
instead of evil.

What is your grammar aptitude?

Lately I've found myself not listening to music in my collection, but instead live shoutcast streams, mainly from the scandanavian regions. (Rise FM: http://yp.shoutcast.com/sbin/shoutcast-playlist.pls?rn=838&file=filename.pls). There is just something that these stations have that isn't in my massive collection of MP3. I can't put my finger on it, but it's either variety or total randomness, partially coupled with the fact that I can't control the next song at all.

From a friend:

And that folks, is why I have a seriously tweaked iptables firewall on Linux.

I don't know what it is lately, but I've been inundated with job offers, and I mean it seriously.

  1. Vive @ SFU (SSHRC-INE - database, configuration management, project management, web rendering, etc.)
  2. Gordon @ SFU (research sysadmin for next semester, conditional on some SFU politics)
  3. web development company downtown (PHP consultant/developer)
  4. Julie @ SFU (web dev and misc.)
  5. A guy from the PHP Meetup last night (PHP consultant/developer)
  6. Business card passed to my mother today while she was shopping, from somebody that has heard of me (PHP consultant/developer)
  7. Email from another guy that attends lots of PHP meetups [but wasn't there last night] (PHP consultant/developer)

(Note: I've not listed who some of the companies/people are my discretion to keep things private).

Seriously, is it normal to have this many unsolicited job offers? I'm not complaining, just wondering what the hell is going on, as I haven't asked for any employment at all (but I am looking).

For reference, here is my resumé: http://www.orbis-terrarum.net/?l=people.robbat2.resume.

For all of them, I'm only looking for part-time work, to go along with my studies.

You know your prof for a class is a fun guy when he gives you this as a part of the readings for the week's material.

Just because you hit the anonymous posting option on the comment page doesn't mean I can't track you down. A little story to inform everybody: A few years ago, when I was a bit more paranoid and watched my custom firewall more vigilantly for attacks, I got an attack from somebody in the southern part of Burnaby. Within a few minutes, I got into the attacker's system, identified them, and I phoned them up. I strongly warned them to cease and desist, and gained an immediate response from the attacking individual that I would say put fear of a higher power into them. Attacks of any form, be they digital or merely saying something against me in a negative fashion will not be tolerated whatsoever.
