A negative suprise: posting here didn't at first work due to missing (empty) template. Apparently Blogger has changed a lot since 2002.A positive suprise: new templates look great, and publishing works fine after making the necessary changes.

A review of a book on wireless security: "Writing a book on wireless security is like writing a book on safe skydiving -- if you want the safety and security, just don't do it."

Today I received from the printhouse a printout of our book on numerical methods ("Numerical Methods in Practice", written in Finnish). The pile of paper was heftier than I expected, at 415 pages. Everything seemed to be ok: no problems with gray-scale tones, or thin lines in figures. All pages were aligned correctly on the paper. So, now we just have to wait a week or so for the book appear in

Yesterday I downloaded iCal for Jaguar (Mac OS X 10.2) and started to use it instead of MS Entourage. My needs are pretty simple (I'm using my paper calendar and my Nokia mobile for keeping appointments), basically just to remind me to take breaks from the Mac every once in a while (lunch, coffee break etc.). This seems to work ok. Some features of iCal are a bit awkward, and some things don't

There are a lot of sites collecting information about the use and cross-linking of blogs. I had a look at Blogging Ecosystem, which seems to be one of the most solid ones. I wonder which of these tools will survice (or will Google surpass them all some day)?

Grid Computing Meets Web Services? Both the Grid technologies and the so-called web services are basically about the same thing. Grid projects tend to emphasize the infrastructure, and web services are more oriented towards end-user interfaces. Both are necessary to make the global internet into a dynamic environment for the future.

Yesterday I downloaded iCal for Jaguar (Mac OS X 10.2) and started to use it instead of MS Entourage. My needs are pretty simple (I'm using my paper calendar and my Nokia mobile for keeping appointments), basically just to remind me to take breaks from the Mac every once in a while (lunch, coffee break etc.). This seems to work ok. Some features of iCal are a bit awkward, and some things don't

What are the hot technologies today? Java seems still to be in, and .Net is perhaps a bit out. (Microsoft has to start pushing .Net to developers soon...). However, XML seems to be the hottest thing.

Today I received from the printhouse a printout of our book on numerical methods ("Numerical Methods in Practice", written in Finnish). The pile of paper was heftier than I expected, at 415 pages. Everything seemed to be ok: no problems with gray-scale tones, or thin lines in figures. All pages were aligned correctly on the paper. So, now we just have to wait a week or so for the book appear in

Yesterday I downloaded iCal for Jaguar (Mac OS X 10.2) and started to use it instead of MS Entourage. My needs are pretty simple (I'm using my paper calendar and my Nokia mobile for keeping appointments), basically just to remind me to take breaks from the Mac every once in a while (lunch, coffee break etc.). This seems to work ok. Some features of iCal are a bit awkward, and some things don't

A review of a book on wireless security: "Writing a book on wireless security is like writing a book on safe skydiving -- if you want the safety and security, just don't do it."

There is a nice hint about Ssh tunneling at Mac OS X Hints. However, you should take care that the ports which you open on your Mac are not accessible from outside your machine. Use the built-in firewall and only allow the ssh protocol!

Noticed an interesting blog: Private Ink. Have to read through some more posts to find what the current items really mean. At first you savour the style and the feel of the blog. If that interests you then you want to check more carefully if this is really something you want to follow. There are so many thigs happening in the blogland that it is impossible to find all those that move or motivate

No separate MS app server. It seems that Intel and Microsoft are slowly building up the momentum for Palladium. First they admit that the current technology has problems, and then they offer (their) solution, before the competition has a chance to step in. However, perhaps the IT experts and consumers have already learned something: Windows 3, Windows 95, Windows NT, Windows 2000 and Windows XP

I tried Google searches of the terms "universal rule" and weblog. This was a typical item: "The closest thing to a universal rule is that most men like a woman who's comfortable with her body, whatever her body happens to look like." It seems that the words "universal rule" are quite often used about the way men regard women. Hmm... I didn't quite have this in mind when I named the blog.

I like the new spam filter of the Jaguar (Mac OS X 10.2) Mail program a lot. For several days now I have had very little spam getting through. Here is a recent snapshot.

Another nice feature of Jaguar (Mac OS X 10.2) is the character map tool. It is no substitute for LaTeX in writing mathematics, but it can help in writing text using the Unicode character set.

Writing Non-native English is a story about how hard it is to write creatively in English when you are not a native speaker. Of course, writing professional articles and research papers is a (somewhat) different matter than writing fiction or other non-professional types of texts.

Lem's doodles: "Wonderful galley of the doodles of Stanislaw Lem." [Boing Boing Blog] Lem was at one point my favorite writer. I read his book Kyberias (the Finnish translation) so many times I could recite long passages from memory. That is all lost now, and I don't think I could enjoy those texts as well as I could twenty years ago.
