Technology is not a panacea. I refuse to work on technology to track users, analyze usage patterns, watermark information, censor, detect drug use, or eavesdrop. I am not naive enough to think any of those technologies could enable a 'compromise'.

Arimaa's a better game than I thought. It follows a fairly sound approach to making the game difficult for computers.

I've accomplished more working on my own than I ever did as part of a team.

Things which any idiot could write usually have the quality of having been written by an idiot.

In terms of work I've always had a Bad Attitude in that I won't work anywhere which requires me to work strict hours or follow a dress code. I don't know if that's an Asperger's thing or not, I think it's just being reasonable.

The next release of mainline is going to have a lot of the advanced features people want, by the way.

Despite my emphasis on technology, I do not view laws as inherently evil. My goals are political ones, even if my techniques are not. The only way to fundamentally succeed is by changing existing laws. If I rejected all help from the political arena I would inevitably fail.
