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 let J. sleep. Dealt with babes. Out to NCC,
Claire speaking in / out to the creche, and ended up with a
sleeping baby on me somehow.
-
Back for a quick lunch; J. out to visit Bruce (recovering
from a minor stroke); played with the babes, cooked dinner, failed
to kill all consuming it (somehow).
-
Bathed babes, put them to bed. Admired the Prusa Mendel which
seems incredibly superior, in terms of removing redundant complexity,
to the stock version; and looks great in action.
Pleased to note that my wooden repstrap y-axis fixings are very
similar to his plastic ones. It is awesome to remove a vast number
~all of the bearings (and even use plastic printed bearings in their
place), along with a huge number of different screw-fixings of
different sizes and lengths, and several lengths of studding from
the design while keeping it functional. I love the idea of stacking
eg. vertex components vertically on a single bed too - to
break them apart before assembly; neat.
-
Listened to a rather interesting sermon
on Gideon's fleece; sleep.
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.
