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.

To work, poked more bootcharts, fixed a couple of bugs in
bootchart2, and submitted it to Base:System. Implemented horizontal
scale zoom in the viewer - to see yet more detail. Dug into a kernel
boot time regression, and poked Greg about it.

Meeting heaven - preload all-hands, customer calls, chat
with Guy, JP, etc. what fun.

Banged away at my desk in the evening, accepting some slightly
damp, pre-planed timber in exchange for speed. Amused by the EvoStick
water-proof glue, apparently it "dries clear" - where 'clear'
seems to have the value 'white'; odd. Assembled the angle-grinder, and
had a go at the steel for the front guard - remembered that you get a
lot of fun sparks from such an occupation - and that the floor is
covered with fine sawdust, hmm. You really get a good feeling for the
speed of a 10k RPM hard-disk, with a angle-grinder of the same speed,
somehow failed to set light to myself, loose a limb, or burn the
house down.
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.
