Ah, the lazyweb. Today, I’m putting together content for a class I’m teaching on basic Linux administration, but during my meeting with a group of trainees to determine the scope of the course, they requested that I completely skip any coverage of “perl -e” one-liners, and show them the Python equivalents.

two queries

http://cellio.livejournal.com/723318.html asks Hoosgot,
Dear Lazyweb, 1. Where, in Pittsburgh, am I likely to find a decent variety of recliners for sale? Much to my frustration it is more expensive to reupholster our current ones than buy new ones. Last time we looked we found an over-abundance of short, wide, voluminous chairs; we’re looking for something more […]

http://space4commerce.blogspot.com/2008/07/dear-lazyweb.html asks Hoosgot,

http://www.en-dash.com/blog/2008/07/15/nobody-cares-about-my-other-posts-however/ asks Hoosgot,
After I take the bar, maybe I’ll have time for posts based on something other than my site visitor logs (or cut-and-pasting from someone else’s blog). Until then… I’ve been thinking about my most popular posts, in terms of hits (most coming from web search sites). The common thread is that Googlers […]

http://www.peterme.com/?p=678 asks Hoosgot,
One of the emerging themes of FOO Camp 08 dealt with people’s relationship with the data they create in their life.
