The whole software factory thing is real and powerful. Lately have been feeling the magnitude of the moment. The opportunity and the challenge of it. Things will be so different even in the next few years. And yet, we will be the same.

有些人覺得年輕時要努力打拚、盡量存錢,很多事可以等年紀大了、退休之後再做,例如什麼環遊世界啦學畫、學琴啦,反正年輕時你覺得浪費錢浪費時間,但好像很有趣的事,都可以等賺夠了錢再來做。

可是這些人到了年紀大了退休的時候,也常常會抱怨因為年輕時太打拚所以身體變得不大好或頭腦太疲勞,環遊世界學畫學琴什麼的,要嘛沒體力要嘛沒興致要嘛健康狀況不允許。

所以計劃不是不能做,但真該好好計劃的不見得是很具體的某件事──那件事可能在很多因素下忽然變得很容易完成或者失去魅力──真正該做的老年計劃,不見得是要去環遊世界學畫學琴,而是如何一個人好好過日子。

Thinking through some PL design questions this evening, and it occurs to me...

There is very little, in practice, here in the year 2026, that prevents me from naming a programming language with an emoji.

NewScientist: "Antibodies harvested from the blood of paediatricians are up to 25 times better at protecting against the common respiratory infection RSV than existing antibody therapies, and are now being developed as preventative treatments"

This is both so logical and yet absurdly like a science fiction story ...

out of curiosity, when did you first start using unix systems?

(please no replies with details on this one, if none of them fit exactly that's ok, just trying to get a very rough sense)

"否定しようのないことが一点ある。そのような労働の状況が、憎しみと反感に満ち満ちた政治的状況を助長しているということである。"

我現在告訴你,「活在當下」,這好像沒啥說服力。但如果這句話由一位漸凍人症患者說出,他已明顯病徵嚴重,而且這幾天已過世,他最後對著鏡頭說出的「活在當下」,便劇力萬鈞。

這是Netflix備受爭議的紀錄片《最後一席話》(Famous Last Words)最新內容:這幾天逝世的演員Eric Dane也錄製了他的遺言,目前已上架。

紀錄片帶來的痛苦是極其強大的,Eric作為類型演員,觀眾更熟悉的是他在無數影集與A級到Z級動作片裡的硬漢形象與身手,但看到他幾乎無法動彈,面部僵硬,掙扎地說出與病痛抗爭的痛苦與釋懷,他說出的這些字句突然變得令人難以承受。

我實在無法輕易推薦《Famous Last Words》,更無法想像幕後製作過程是如何進行,是N家或受訪者哪一方主動接觸,劇組又是如何進行溝通與拍攝,這一切都難以想像。

但是,你還是能從他在《最後一席話》的他,與《實習醫生格蕾》裡的他之間的相似性,感受真實的他,那種相似性依舊真實存在,他的身軀無法移動,他失去了格蕾裡的八十塊腹肌,但漸凍人症無法移除他的幽默感,他的精神依舊很好,他依舊有勇氣直面死亡,這殘忍又莊嚴……而且充滿生命力。
