Stuff Michael Meeks is doing
|
|
This is my (in)activity log. You might like to visit my employer
Novell which is an amazing company, and also
Dell who in days of yore provided me with a
free laptop for Gnome development / conferences.
Also if you have the time to read this sort of stuff you could enlighten
yourself by going to Unraveling Wittgenstein's net or if
you are feeling objectionable perhaps here.

- Up early, to work; mail, call with Noel & Jian. Wrote
up conference notes. Downloaded / burned OpenSUSE 10.3 B3, lunch.
- Kelli's staff, spent a while hacking disksim profile
parsing to do what I want. Call with Kelli, call with Garret.
- Put babes to bed, dinner, Dave Staff over to plan Myriam's
dedication at the weekend.
- Back to iogrind - spent a long time reading
disksim .model files to try to create synthetic disk models; guessing
zone breakdown, track size, etc. seems more fun than expected:
unfortunately disksim appears to use either a stupidly simple 'fixed
seek time' model, or a heinously complicated no-holds-barred model and
not much in between; nothing like "please give me a sane-ish disk of
size N Gb".
In case it's not painfully obvious: the reflections reflected here are my
own; mine, all mine ! and don't reflect the views of Novell, The
Lithuanian Gov't or Arnold Schwarzenegger. It's also important to
realise that I'm not in on the Swedish Conspiracy.
Occasionally people ask for formal photos for conferences,
bio.
or fun.
