Just for fun, I generated these graphs of the number of letters in the word for each number. I really spent about 10 minutes on this (ok…possibly also another 40 minutes tweaking the plots): More languages!

Visual representation of hard drives and their temperature

from Louwrentius [alt+shift+b] in technology

over a year ago
If you build a NAS with many drives, it may be of interest to you which drives get hot and where they are located in the chassis. My Norco 4020 case has twenty drives in RAID 6, plus two operating system drives in RAID 1. I wrote a script that shows me the temperature of each...

Sometimes I think I should pivot my career to home automation critic, because I have many opinions on the state of the home automation industry---and they're pretty much all critical. Virtually every time I bring up home automation, someone says something about the superiority of...

RAID array size and rebuild speed

from Louwrentius [alt+shift+b] in technology

When Google killed Google Reader, the bloggosphere took a severe hit and the content quality went down because there weren't enough readers to justify the effort it takes to maintain a high quality blog.

What's left is a decaying wasteland of blogs, most abandoned, a lot are now SEO spam, and 99% are not worth reading. BoredReading is a way to read the remaining great blogs that survived the ice age.

To add your favorite blog, please suggest it here! I get emails every day which helps me maintain a high quality selection of blogs!
