A pungent mix of programming, philosophy, pedanticism, procrastination, perplexity, peripheral political polemic, and platters of preposterousness.

Off to London in the morning. And off to a LAN party at the weekend. In the meantime, writing, writing, writing. Got two big new notebooks, so that my offline journal/notes/ideas file can build up. I’m currently about 260 pages in. There are downsides. Security, for one. If it rains, as well, ink can run. Fire doesn’t do it much good. Still, unlike laptops, it doesn’t run out of batteries. And I can even use it when the electricity is off.

More about my offline ideas file: I’m hoping to index the ideas file soon by making a small loose-leaf A5 file containing a computer-generated index. I’m going to have the most comprehensive note-taking system in the world. And the fruits of it are going to be seen right here (and, well, here too, and here if here happens to be one of my university essays). Anyway, I’ve got dogs to walk and pubs to go and lurk in.
