Mt. Si Conditioning Hikes
I’ve been conditioning at Mt. Si this winter and made the hike several times. December 29, 2015: 2 hours, 3 minutes January 9, 2016: 2 hours, 7 minutes with heavier pack March 6, 2016: 1 hour, 47 minutes with heavier … Continue reading
Hiked to Camp Muir… Again
My wonderful girlfriend was out of town, and the weather looked decent, so what could I do? Go hiking again. I would have done the same with her here (and gone together with her), but just because she’s not here … Continue reading
Camp Muir!
I hiked to Camp Muir at 10,000 feet on Mt. Rainier today! It was an amazing day. I arrived at the Paradise Visitor Center a little before 10 AM, and it took me 4.5 hours up and 3 hours down. … Continue reading
Wanting a New Phone
My current phone, a Samsung Galaxy S4, is now almost 2 years old (just a week shy). For the last six to nine month, battery life has been pretty horrible, and the USB connector also doesn’t work all the time … Continue reading
Lake 22 Hike
On the first Sunday of April, we came back to the Mountain Loop Highway to get to Lake 22. It was only a few miles away from Mt. Pilchuck, but there was almost no snow. We were definitely overdressed. Granted, … Continue reading
Mt. Pilchuck Hike
At the beginning of April, I had a hiking double-header on the Mountain Loop Highway. Saturday I went up Mt. Pilchuck. I was surprised how much snow there was: close to 2 ft! It was gorgeous and a good workout. … Continue reading
Hikes of Early 2015
The first hike was the 3.8 mile Poo Poo Point Chirico Trail, with 1760 ft of gain. This was also the first new trail for me since the end of 2013. The other hike was another visit to Annette Lake, … Continue reading
Sunglasses in the Snow
One of the most annoying things from my hikes early this year was going back and forth between the glare of the snow and the darkness of the woods. I kept taking off my sunglasses and putting them back on, … Continue reading
Getting My Perforce Back
About a week ago, I received an email from a user of Concutest, asking whether I would update it to be based on JUnit 4.12 soon. I hadn’t worked on Concutest in a while, and I also hadn’t followed along … Continue reading
Summer Updates
It’s been a while since I’ve written here last. I’ve gone to Finland, I’ve come back. And there have been some pretty dramatic changes in my life (not all to be detailed here and now). Normally, this would be the … Continue reading
Rebuffed by Snow Lake Yet Again
I made my second attempt this year to reach one of my favorite spots in the state, Snow Lake (and ideally, Gem Lake). Yet again, I turned around before I could reach Snow Lake. The first time was a snowshoeing … Continue reading
Google Maps with Lane Guidance and Traffic
I’ve complained a lot about the Google Maps app on Android lately. Offline maps were gone, the nice navigation interface while driving was gone, favorites were gone, simple access to alternate routes was gone, distance measurement via ruler was gone. … Continue reading
Best Papers vs. Top Cited Papers
Dr. Moshe Vardi at Rice tweeted a really cool link today: Best Papers vs. Top Cited Papers on Arnetminer. It lists the most-cited papers that were published at one of many conferences, and then also which paper received the “best … Continue reading
DeLorme InReach SE
I recently bought a satellite communicator, the DeLorme InReach SE. It can send an SOS, and it’s a two-way communicator, so rescue personnel can tell you they’ve actually received your message. Of course, you can also use it to text … Continue reading
Transcendence
I watched a pre-screening of the movie “Transcendence” today. Some cliches, like wildly flashing and scrolling consoles and computer-generated voices, as well as the somewhat rapid end aside, the movie was well-made and thought-provoking. Below are some thoughts that occurred … Continue reading
OneNote for Mac, One Caveat
In my last post, I claimed that OneNote for Mac didn’t exist. That’s actually not true. My friend Chris informed me that about two weeks ago, Microsoft released OneNote for Mac. That still doesn’t help me, because OneNote for Mac … Continue reading
Goodbye Old Work Laptop, Hello New Work Laptop
At the end of last week, I turned in my old 3.5 year-old work laptop, my rugged, trusted Lenovo ThinkPad T410. When I started using it at work, I didn’t like it. I was using the MacBook Pro I had … Continue reading
Daily Yoga
For most of this year, I have done yoga every day. I still go to my class at the gym, but five to six times a week I do yoga at home using the Daily Yoga Android app. It’s fun, … Continue reading
Avalanche Class
At the beginning of the year, I attended an avalanche awareness class at Mt. Baker, organized by KAF Adventures. The class consisted of a three-hour theoretical introduction here in Seattle, followed by a whole day spent out in the snow … Continue reading
