		<description><![CDATA[I've recently noticed that I frequently hold nonsensical ideas in my mind. Often these are pure contradictions. Merely attempting to describe these is enough to discover the problems. But there are also times where only the realisation of the ideas can break the illusion.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[While playing Assassin&#8217;s Creed a couple of days ago, I realised that whenever I pick up a new game I first learn the limitations of my game character. In a way I get to relive childhood for a short time and truly experience what it is to know nothing. As I struggled with the controls, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[For a long time I've wanted a better home office e-mail system and I finally had some free time to set it up. It took a while. The information and tools are all freely available. But they are distributed in many different places and it's difficult to find stuff when you don't know what to look for. So I'm documenting my set-up here for future reference.

		<description><![CDATA[I've recently been having some bandwidth problems. Although I have an "unmetered" account it appears I'm using too much. Actually it's not all me, I'm in a flat share situation and it doesn't make sense to have a dedicated Internet line each; at least it didn't.

It is also the first time I've watched a parliamentary debate since that vote. It is time to review my opinion of our form of government.

		<description><![CDATA[I've long favoured self-documenting code over code comments. But I've recently reconsidered the issue. After years of dealing with self-documenting code I'm beginning to see problems. With hindsight I'm less sure that self-documenting code is always the best way to go.

		<description><![CDATA[I recently read a paper on confirmation bias: the tendency to focus on information that corroborates theories and dismiss information that contradicts them. It explained a general problem that I've noticed with many scientific studies (particularly in the field of software development) but I hadn't been able to identify.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[When my Nan recently died, my parents got an education in the cost of dying. For example, if you want a cremation, you have to get forms signed by two doctors. Each signature will cost you about Â£60. My parents were told that this was due to the case of Doctor Shipman. A little research showed this to be a simplification.]]></description>
