Nefarious Changes Are Afoot

↓ skip to article

It’s been quite a while since I wrote anything of substance. I generally like to belt out some worthwhile prose about once a week. I might be maging vague accusations, ranting about something infinitesimal, or speaking in code. It’s pretty rare that I directly address the entity that actually stimulates the post.

This stands in pretty stark contrast to my normal modus operandi. I generally say precisely what I am thinking.

Or do I?

Maybe I really don’t. I think I’m only partly forthcoming. I consider myself to be much more open about my thoughts than the average Dick or Jane, but even that is disappointing. I should work on it.

On a side note: I overthink. I am constantly evaluating my surroundings, weighing my decisions, and taking in details. I often make light associations to computers when I talk about my brain. I think the metaphor is fitting: out-of-order execution, branch prediction, cache misses, multi-core, pipeline stalls. It’s all there. The recent shift in processor technology to multiple, simpler cores is interesting. I think I need an upgrade.

Rap quote of the day…

“I just did a whole song and I didn’t say shit…”

Shit. I remember what happened last time somebody wrote a post about nefarious changes.

I went back and searched to see what in the world you could possibly be referring to. I found nothing of consequence. :)
