cwinters, another interesting interdisciplinary book is David Deutsch’s The Fabric of Reality – I have no idea how much of it is even remotely sane, but its fun.

Temper, temper…
I have demonstrated yet again that my temper gets in the way of any sysadmining competance I might develop – SuSE’s YAST2 inserted a ^@ in /etc/rc.config somehow before it defines the networking variables and it took ages to figure out why the networking wouldn’t come up. It wasn’t me who figured it out, either. If I upgrade to 7.0 anytime soon, I’ll have to see if that can be reproduced. Now I have to get ssh working…

Life
Having fun bike-riding at the moment. Made a lesuirely little trip around the Sydney Harbour shore near Drummoyne.
