Solution for Google Treasure Hunt "zipfile" question


You may or may not have been following the Google Treasure Hunt competition, a puzzle contest designed to test your knowledge of Computer Science, networking, and low-level UNIX trivia (as described on the Google blog). It's also a way for them to find potential engineers to be assimilated --er, hired. I took one of [...]

All online data lost after Internet crashes


Sometimes when people call us for technical support at Summersault, they tell us that in trying to troubleshoot a problem on their desktop computer, they have "deleted the Internet." It's always tempting to feign shock and horror, saying "that was YOU!?" and ask them to "get it back, oh dear God, get it back [...]

One Day, Many Costumes


It was a day where I've worn so many different costumes and had such a wide range of experiences, I know I'll never have another like it, and it just feels good to be alive.
Early Morning: black pants with dark blue dress shirt. Activities included helping track down someone selling stolen dogs and cats [...]

Bits and pieces from a busy few days
