Пришел. По почте. Незванно-негадано. Чек.

На $0.15. Пятнадцать центов.

Это я так кредитку закрыл. Обналичивать идти боюсь.

It looks like I am not the only one who ever tried to find another good font to replace default and ugly “Courier” in Visual Studio. I found a discussion here with some examples… Monaco looks nice, actually, but link to is was broken. Found it here, tried to install.. surprisingly, the font appearance reminds me one of those old DOS IDEs from Borland.

В продолжение репортажа, начатого неделю назад хотелось бы сказать.. ой, откуда эти штампованные фразы времен Нерушимого

Во-первых, не мы одни слонялись по пляжу. Товарищу emjee не повезло с погодой, но повезло с толпами зевак, которых не было. Вот, к примеру – очень классная фотка. Правда, понять, что это за хрень, очень сложно и я даже и не стал пытаться ее фотографировать. Но, с другой стороны, у нас осталось кое-что в загашнике

Нет, это не фотошоп. Это такая постановка – стекло на фоне моря совершенно незаметно.

I am not a designer at all, but really value good looking sites.

Will try to apply this style.

This Dilbert comics is right about what I have been doing at work for several weeks

На работе читаю доказательство теоремы Байеса.

Еще немного и примусь за повторение всей теории вероятностей.

Кошмар.

Вообще приходится скрещивать ежа с ужом.

Тема K2 поддерживает комментирование с модным словом AJAX. Только вот незадача – оно несовместимо с OpenID. Объехал на кривой козе so far.

Продолжаю наблюдение.

Еще добавил отображение числа комментариев в ЖЖ.

While looking for any ideas about what I already asked on RSDN, found this:

A>Users can upload their own photos in their profiles
A>An algorithm that rejects meaningless or inappropriate pictures is needed

McSeem2>At first, you need to learn how to tell pornography from Fidel Castro eating a banana.

BTW, still have no success. Found  heaps of theoretical works and books but none of them explain how to apply that theory to a stream of strings.

Installed K2 theme. Looks nice, has AJAX comments and some other features.  Bria’s threaded comments do not work properly.

Next thing to do is to modify style, but do not have enough time. Will do it later.

There are many things about Australia that keep surprising me all the time and number of them just does not seem to decrease. For example, I could not imagine that it is really possible to setup an art exhibition on the beach before I occasionally got to Sculpture by the sea exhibition.

Well, I suspect there is nothing really unusual for some art events to take place outdoors, but for those who spent biggest part of life in a place which climate represents imminent danger for any kind of art except some massive bronze monuments, this sort of cultural action is still extremely exotic.

As long as I already mentioned bronze, let me to introduce this masterpiece.
