    公司宣传画

    今天早上到办公室,看见经理在我凳子上放了两张内部刊物的彩页,其中一张在Intel的公开网站也能看到:


    其实网页上另一个关于cleanroom的图也挺好玩的。

    Tao of Lao Tzu

    这个标题看起来既像:老子(李耳)的道,又像,老子(敝人)的桃

    昨天在Costco买了白桃,今天早上找了一个有点软的做早餐,竟然可以直接剥皮吃。里面汁水很甜,很有在国内吃“深州蜜”(桃)的感觉。

    米兰昆德拉今年八十岁

    这个周末重读《不能承受的生命之轻》(The unbearable lightness of being)。其实我更喜欢老译名《生命不能承受之轻》,尽管新的更贴近于原名。有人说好书每十年拿出来重读,都会有新的收获和感悟。至少这个independent day的长周末,重读这本书是我最大的收获。

    档案馆里堆的那一捆捆发黑的论文,比墓地还要凄惨,即便到了万灵节,也不会有人去看一眼。文化就在大批的制造、言语的泛滥、数量的失控中逐渐消亡

    When a society is rich, its people don't need to work with their hands; they can devote themselves to activities of the spirit. We have more and more universities and more and more students. If students are going to earn degrees, they've got to come up with dissertation topics. And since dissertations can be written about everything under the sun, the number of topics is infinite. Sheets of paper covered with words pile up in archives sadder than cemeteries, because no one ever visits them, not even on All Souls' Day. Culture is perishing in overproduction, in an avalanche of words, in the madness of quantity.

    ---The unbearable lightness of being, By Milan Kundera

    大家开车小心

    前两天看报,说德州五分之一的驾车人,即四百万人,没有汽车保险。竟然还有一个教堂的paster攻击警察,因为警察要罚一个没有汽车保险的教徒(link)。

    Anyway,大家如果只买了半保,最好再加上一个Uninsured Motorist的保险。这样,即使对方司机没有保险,如果是他的责任,你的保险公司也会负责你的损失。
