Justification?
I have thought very hard whether I am just justifying myself about this whole church thing. My conclusion is that, as of now, I believe that my thoughts on church that I expressed previously are the truth, or at least close, but that I should nonetheless remain wary of my conclusion until I am back in stride in my walk with the Lord. Any who read my previous post should, likewise, remain wary if...
I can find no convincing argument that a Christian must attend church. I have been searching for a while now. There are only two arguments that I believe to even be worth considering: The New Testament assumes that all Christians attended local churches. We are called to fellowship with other Christians. I do not disagree with either of these points. Christians, in fact, did attend local churches...

I hate it when an ambulance is trying to go down a busy street, everybody is pulling over and stuff, and then some idiot pickup driver doesn’t understand the difference between pulling over and simply stopping in the middle of the road and blocking the ambulance even more than if he had just kept going.
I’m in the process of cleaning and possibly reorganizing my room at the moment. I mentioned this (in a somewhat geeky way) in #io on Freenode, and Steve Dekorte gave me the previously posted quote. Appropriate, and also would be good to apply elsewhere.

WatchAnd I thought the beatboxing harmonica guy was cool… I really need to stop watching these.

This is a nice outlet.
It is convenient to have a channel of expression that doesn’t feel like it requires a lot of work and effort. Other blog services seem to emphasize long, thought-out posts. That’s not a bad thing, but usually I just have one thing to say at any given time. If only they hadn’t sold out to the trends of so-called ”Web 2.0.”
How am I supposed to make a future for myself if all I ever do is homework?
I just watched episode 17, ”Company Man,” of Heros. Best. Episode. Yet. The series just outdid itself.

Repository Semantic Idea
It would be neat to have a repository where every revision is treated as a branch, making it possible to allow anonymous commits without necessarily screwing up the mainstream project. Guest-submitted patches can then be merged in on a case-by-case basis. This would also allow for a more intuitive understanding of the internal layout of a repository with a clear separation of the time and space...

Sun Tzu’s The Art of War seems to apply to more things than just war. So, applying the metaphor of war to other competitive parts of life, I will occasionally post Sun Tzu quotes.

Apparently, Heros fans in Canada get to see new episodes a day before we do here in the U.S., so those of us who know we are going to miss an episode in advance can download those nice high-definition versions using Bittorrent before it even shows on regular cable television.
