handgun experiences

Posted on 20 April 200627 June 2016 By antipaucity No Comments on handgun experiences

In my recent northward foray over Easter weekend, I had an opportunity to go handgun shooting with friends, and I discovered a couple things. First, I don’t like the Smith & Wesson Sigma model. It has a two-stage trigger, so the trigger is the safety (like Glock uses), and I don’t like it. It also…

new york international auto show

Posted on 18 April 2006 By antipaucity No Comments on new york international auto show

This past weekend I was visiting friends in New Jersey, and we went to Manhattan for the New York International Auto Show on Saturday. If you have never been to the NYIAS, it’s huge (held in the Javits Center), and has a ridiculous number of people in attendance each day. Food is expensive at the…

dating sites

Posted on 15 April 200613 April 2006 By antipaucity No Comments on dating sites

I’ve noticed (for a while now) that most dating and matching sites are all pay based. What I want to know is why? Yahoo! Personals, for example, requires a monthly subscription fee to use it for more than browsing. eHarmony is famous for allowing free scanning, but they charge a (seemingly high) monthly rate. Match.com…

the society for creative anachronism

Posted on 13 April 200613 April 2006 By antipaucity No Comments on the society for creative anachronism

First off, what a great name for an organization.Second, I first heard about this group when I started researching knife-fighting techniques. One of the books I bought on the topic suggested that among the best ways to practice hand-to-hand combat is to join a local SCA chapter. I have spent more time recently learning about…

containerized datacenters

Posted on 11 April 200631 January 2013 By antipaucity No Comments on containerized datacenters

Expanding on Cringely’s posts late last year (first, second), I was wondering why companies don’t offer turn-key datacenters for businesses. Imagine, for a moment, that you were in need of several servers – email, web, hr, inventory, file storage, applications – and support architecture – routers, switches, firewalls, etc. Locating suppliers for all of these…

center creek canoes (C3)

Posted on 6 April 200612 April 2006 By antipaucity No Comments on center creek canoes (C3)

For my senior capstone course, our professor is having us each build a mock e-commerce site. All through the semester till this point, the counter example I kept picking for questions was a canoe. So, when we were told to pick something to sell, what could be more logical than canoes? So I am writing…

fantasy baseball

Posted on 4 April 200620 April 2006 By antipaucity No Comments on fantasy baseball

This year I am participating in a Fantasy Baseball league with some friends, hosted on Yahoo. The last time I tried out the fantasy baseball thing was 6 years ago, and I had no clue what I was doing – I just thought it was kinda cool. Well, this time around isn’t much different (yet)…
