short takes

[cellio]

Yesterday's mail brought a lovely magnet from browngirl based on the Kipling poem "Helen All Alone", which I had not previously read. Good call and beautiful art!

We're playing D&D this Saturday, which means we can have a longer session than when we play on a weeknight. I'm looking forward to it.

And now a few links:

A really interesting article on how to interview candidates for software jobs (link provided by goljerp).

Buy T-shirts and more from the Total Information Awareness store! This is the Orwellian logo they don't use any more. (Link provided by a co-worker.)

Everyday etiquette hell (source forgotten). Put the Coke down first. Really. Either that, or plan to clean your monitor.

I'm glad that people found the interview link useful. Some of the other article on that site are also interesting - there's an archive of articles

I actually found the etiquette pages pretty depressing...
