Tails of my day-to-day life, slightly embellished to make them more interesting. See also my editorial blog Corpse Divine for discussion on politics, religion, science and culture.

The Ruminant's first visitor, amayamaya, left a nice comment requesting more posts. Just as retailers often display their first dollar, I am going to display this first comment for a while. Rest assured, amayamaya, when I get my thirty minutes of fame, you will have your fifteen. I hope I'm not too selfish to keep some of the fame for myself.

Is my Blog HOT or NOT?

The more I talk to Canadians, the more I suspect that Canada has no actual laws. I just got off the phone with campus legal services about some basic questions which you would think have answers. I am now more convinced than ever that there are no laws here. They just make things up as they go.

Is there or isn't there an Edmonton bylaw requiring snow removal from entrances to parking garages? Are U-turns ever allowed or not? Is the Canadian legal system based on Godel's theorem?

Update

It looks as though my paper is the 999,999th entry in the IEEEXplore document database. How cool is that?

Graduation

An issue of the IEEE Journal of Solid State Circuits arrived in the mail today, featuring my first journal publication. I am now a full grown, official nerd.
