The last few days have been pretty nondescript. Also, it hasn't stopped raining. I love Boston whether, it's just that some of it is less pleasant to be outside in.

I've been really tired lately. I got to bed early yesterday, then had insomnia. Still felt better in the morning, though.

As far as politics goes, I can't believe the hypocrisy when conservatives talk about activist judges (the second one is particularly mind-boggling; damned theocrats).

Work is great, but I can't talk about it.

never knew that you worked on top-secret stuff.

Yup. They have to protect their corporate secrets from Google's all-seeing eye...

their competeing with google? I didn't know anybody could. If you die, can I have your books?

[l33tminion]

Very different niches, but technically the same industry (Metacarta is sort of like Google Maps). Still, that's one of the major reasons I'm not allowed to talk about my job.

Besides, Google isn't evil, so they're not allowed to kill people working for the competition. They could hire them... (Actually, my contract has a noncompetition clause which says that if I leave Metacarta I can't work for their competitors for a year. Which totally ruins the internship I had set up at Google for next summer.)

That's interesting. Everything my group at the MediaLab does is essentially open source. I post my code online...

Yeah, well, Metacarta wants to hide from Big Broother, I think...
