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.

legacy html
-
Up early, poked mail, dug at calc, made HTML import 60%
faster or so
unfortunately, that's still 55seconds for 64k cells. Lots of fairly
un-amusing N^2 type feasts in there. With a small 10k cell test case,
250k linear searches through all cell contents - I guess doing the
same search 25 times or so. 8bn cycles plus. Sped up the EditEngine
for this corner case (with some trepidation).
-
Lunch; builders arrived: Clint and Richard to work out which
bits to knock down first, somewhat inconclusive. Poked at mail, chewed
tasks, looked at optimisation pieces. Quick call with Naresh.
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.
