Ooops... danggone facebook

I just realized that I've been spamming EVERYBODY I know on the facebook account.

I was playing around with the privacy setting and found out that:

News Feed highlights what's happening in your social circles on Facebook.

whereas,

Mini-Feed is similar, except that it centers around one person. Each person's Mini-Feed shows what has changed recently in their profile ...

I thought I turned off a bunch of stuff that I play around a lot (twitter especially) from other people's feeds. Except, I just got it off my personal mini-feed!

Stupid, Stupid, Me.

On Responsibility

Found a good quote from the suprisingly wise and pithy Improving Inventory Record Accuracy. (This is quickly becoming one of my favourite: It applies more to life than just inventory control.)
"The person given the responsibilty must also have two additional attributes - motivation and authority - in order to achieve the right environment."
- Tony Wild

Why accuracy is needed

"For example, if we are 99 per cent accurate in recording movements through a stores and the average item is moved 10 times (includinq receiving, transfer and dispatch), then almost one in 20 of the records (9.6 per cent) will be wronq.

How user interfaces should be like.

... Computer users should be able to access their most frequently used screen immediately, and perform routine tasks without changing screens and with a minimum of keystrokes. The system should also lead the user through the logical sequence of operations. Once a computer has been informed of the item code being worked on, it should retain that code and not require its re-entry. Data that are already on file should, of course, be accessed by the system and should not need to be entered again once the initial information has been established.

Cassius, Hermes, Hannibal

Just remember the three people from antiquity i most admired as a kid.

Cassius from Julius Caesar
There was always something so much more interesting for me, the manipulative, cowardly Cassius.

Sure, he can't win a battle, treat his wife like crap, and can't fall on his own sword properly. But he masterminded the whole death of Caesar. All out of spite too.

Mark Antony comes second. But being too much of a doofus to underestimate Octavius, I find thar I can't fully like him.

Hermes

Dude has got winged feet. Invented writing and medicine. And gets to fly around with a stick. Having a sense of humor is cool too.

The Carthargian Hannibal
Shit. What does this guy not have? Blood oath as a little kid. Invented flanking as a major battlefield tactic. Was both a renagade general and a fugitive. Chosed death before dishonor. Plus, he had elephants! And invaded europe with them.

He managed a multicultural, multilingual force of colored folks and burned most of Italy. How can any kid not like him?

Circa

So i finally find my way to the biggest megaclub on Richmond. it's alright. Expensive cover. But it feels like an IT spot right now. time will tell.
