татко Крокодил

The day began in an ugly way, because of last night’s drinking, good thing that before I went home I went to “Kuch” to eat a paunch soup… I went to the hospital, to get my arm checked. There was some waiting, I got sent to the X-ray, and then I was told to wait for an half an hour. I used the time to get to the nearest pub, where with one paunch soup and a beer the world started to look better.

Then I went on to finish with the examination, the doc found out that there isn’t any problem with it, and just my joints are a bit flabby, so in the end I could easily dislocate my shoulder and not care about it … :)

Right now I’m reading in parallel 3 books – the one by John Taylor Gatto, the last one by Tad Williams – “The war of the flowers”, and the one by Mandelbrot on fractals. Some people found for me “The confusion” by Neal Stephenson, but I’m still wondering about reading it this way, or just to wait, and order the whole Baroque cycle on paper – right now have enough to read, and some ideas for writing…
(I wonder how long will it take before I start dreaming some combination of those three books ?:) )

I’m interested in how many people would want some short article with examples on “Some quick principles of the debugging under linux – strace, ltrace, gdb”. A lot of people are asking me “why doesn’t this work”, instead using some of these tools, and to find out for themselves (I’ve found out that strace can found 95% of the problems :) ).
