Spent much of the past week, including lengthy periods after hours, working on the remaining installations and checking code for HPC and Linux training at the University of Sydney over the next two weeks for their new system. A little perplexed and amused by said institution's infatuation with style over content when it comes with training material (as everyone else has been in earshot), but at the very least it does encourage further investigations into the supposed productivity gains acquired through corporate branding, especially in reference to educational outcomes. I rather suspect that a parabola is the appropriate mathematical representation.

Earlier this week took up a role as a board member of the New International Bookshop (FB page). At the other end of the scale attended an Federal Division executive meeting of the Kooyong ALP on Wednesday. Pleased to see that my suggestion on the Federal government's 'War on Science' will receive a policy forum meeting, which is resulting in some major research facilities facing collapse.

The latest issue of RPG Review on 'Pirates and Swashbucklers' has been switched to a double issue and is thus due for release on March 23. There is still room for an article or two with a stretch if anyone has a relevant sample NPC, scenario, review etc, please do so. Last Thursday was a session of The Laundry Files; it went well with just a bit of a hint of the impending gallows humour and Lovecraftian weirdness.
