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, fed and clothed (still exhausted from Friday)
babes. NCC, Tony speaking on Jesus the Good Shepherd.
-
Back for lunch with Sandy, talked to her, tried to
arbitrate between innumerable children's squabbles. Played with
stepper motor drivers and got the opto-endstop identified and
setup correctly. Children fascinated by the flashing LEDs, and
pressing buttons on the computer to move the motor - seemingly
endless fun.
-
Trying various ways of making the required gearing for
the stepper motors; was convinced that adding some bolts to a
mudguard washer might do it. A victim of an extremely blunt
drill, and a truly amazing blistering burn from touching the
washer afterwards - mental note: friction, it makes things hot.
-
Dinner. Listened to Gordon sermon, bed early.
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.
