As I read through books and articles about quantum physics, I have come up with a few questions over time that I still don’t have a clear answer to. Maybe some other people do. Here they are: 1. If the universe is made of symmetric particles, is it made of symmetric properties in all respects? 2. If there is a quantum universe(maybe ours), is it constant? Is it deterministic? 3. In general terms, could we ourselves be considered quantum particles to objects relatively as large as we are to quantum matter? 4. Do quantum particles always need a reason to reveal/express themselves(such as when they are measured)? 5. Strictly speaking, can information travel by other means besides waves or entanglement? 6. How does quantum matter store information, and is the type of information it can store limited? Let me know your thoughts.

Tristan Sloughter has posted a blog post about how Steve Ballmer and Microsoft want to extort us Linux folk for the rights to use free software. In response, Tristan suggests we start a campaign of mailing monopoloy money to Steven Ballmer. I am definitely all for it! Only problem is, I am not just going to handover my hard earned Monopoly Money! Good Hasbro has PDF’s on their site to print some out! I recommend printing the 500’s. Just to make sure you pay enough to get Microsof...

I received my Nintedo Wii yesterday. I was lucky enough to have ordered one from Circuit City during the few minutes that they took preorders on Friday. They shipped it out Monday, and it was here Tuesday(yesterday). Anyways, here are my first impressions of some different aspects about the Wii. The Wii Itself I must say the thing is even smaller than I could have imagined. It is slightly slimmer than a Mac Mini, a little longer, and just a tad wider. The thing feels absolutely solid. T...
more Adding AES Encryption To Erlang ChatFrom: diginux.blogspot.com
Post Date: 2006-11-14 21:01:00
I have been working on adding encryption to an IRC clone that I am working on with Tristan Sloughter called EChat . Just like IRC, in normal operation EChat sends all communications to the server, then the server figures out who needs to get what. So, for my initial stab at adding encryption to EChat, I decided to encrypt the transmissions between clients and the server, instead of end to end. Client1 Server Client2 So basically, the server does all the key management. Since AES ...

Today I came across the following blog post entitled Is Ubuntu Set to become Non-free? Basically they complain how Ubuntu is going to want you to use proprietary drivers for using the default composite manager. The thing that bugs me is that Ubuntu is already non-free. Their own philosophy (which the author even states) specifically says they allow for specific cases of having non-free software. To me, you can’t be slightly free or non-free, you are either free, or you are not...
