As I was reading about the expression problem, I
couldn't help but think it sounded very familiar. And then it hit me, I wrote about this nine years ago.
This might be another reason why I
took some time off—I've already written about a lot of stuff.
Twice this year, I've wanted to write about some topic, only to find
I've already written about said topic. For instance, there's this
silly series
about solving sudoku
problems that I've written about
before (seriously—I thought this was satire at first, until I realized
that this was a serious article by Ron Jeffries, who is a consultant selling
this programming methodology).
The second came about because of the alarm clock incident where I was reminded of this weird dream I once had.
It's sometimes hard to come up with new material.
You have my permission to link freely to any entry here. Go
ahead, I won't bite. I promise.
The dates are the permanent links to that day's entries (or
entry, if there is only one entry). The titles are the permanent
links to that entry only. The format for the links are
simple: Start with the base link for this site: https://boston.conman.org/, then add the date you are
interested in, say 2000/08/01,
so that would make the final URL:
https://boston.conman.org/2000/08/01
You can also specify the entire month by leaving off the day
portion. You can even select an arbitrary portion of time.
You may also note subtle shading of the links and that's
intentional: the “closer” the link is (relative to the
page) the “brighter” it appears. It's an experiment in
using color shading to denote the distance a link is from here. If
you don't notice it, don't worry; it's not all that
important.
