It has been lax of me, but I should make mention that [livejournal.com profile] tau_iota_mu_c stayed a couple of nights a few weeks back and was excellent company. Further, [livejournal.com profile] caseopaya and I recently dined with [livejournal.com profile] ser_pounce and [livejournal.com profile] wolf_in_winter; a great evening and a repeat experience has been booked. Yesterday spent a joyous discussion on basic accounting (and many other things) with [livejournal.com profile] splodgenoodles and [livejournal.com profile] tenbears. I now have an enormous bag of herbs courtesy of their garden.

Negative side. Current annoying state-owned corporatised service is earning my wrath is Australia Post. They managed to confuse my surname with my firstname and thus the paid postal redirection has been failing. Just as I have several boxes of books coming in from overseas. Annoying to say the least. Other annoyances include a work colleague who's incompetent, abrasive and ambiguous. Thank goodness I have some managerial authority. Anyone good at organising events? An (average) paying job is coming up.

On the positive side, I've put in notice at Borderlands. The loss of income is incidental, the gain of time is really, really good. Also have written an article on our "parliamentarians and councilors education" kit for Prosper Australia, put up the notes from my slides at the AUUG conference on open source economics. Finally, I've put up my presentation on Ray Kurzweil's Age of Spiritual Machines

US admits loss in Baghdad. A working (kind of) invisibility cloak. Can you tell as Sunni from a Shi'a?. What makes women bad at maths? Believing that they are bad at maths (top link of the week award to [livejournal.com profile] cheshire_bitten)

Charlie has organised events. He might be interested.

OK, that's interesting. Email me off-journal and we'll talk some more.
