Moonwalker

.

On September 9, 2002, filmmaker Bart Sibrel, a proponent of the Apollo moon landing hoax theory, confronted Aldrin and his granddaughter outside a Beverly Hills, California hotel. Sibrel confronted Aldrin, stating “You’re the one who said you walked on the moon and you didn’t” and called Aldrin “a coward and a liar”. Aldrin responed at this point by punching Sibrel in the face. Beverly Hills police and the city’s prosecutor declined to file charges after other witnesses reported that Sibrel had initiated physical contact. Sibrel suffered no permanent injuries.

Domino

骨牌

.

It turns out that if you start with all of them at once, you’ll fail.

And if you start with the big one, you’ll fail.

But if you line up all the dominos one by one, in the right order, you may just have enough energy to push over the first one. That one, of course, adds momentum so that when you crash into the second one, that one goes too.

Time Travel

.

It is possible to affect the past, but not to change it.

The Novikov Principle does not allow a time traveller to change the past in any way, but it does allow them to affect past events in a way that produces no inconsistencies — for example, a time traveller could rescue people from a disaster, and replace them with realistic corpses seconds before it occurs.

Logarithmic law

.

# If you hire all A people, he said, they’ll also hire A people. But if you hire B people, they’ll hire the C people and then it’s all over.

— Joel Spolsky

.

# Andre Weil suggested that there is a logarithmic law at work: first-rate people attract other first-rate people, but second-rate people tend to hire third-raters, and third-rate people hire fifth-raters.

刺蝟 4

勇敢承認自己的缺點, 方能改正.

勇敢承認自己的優點, 才能發揮.

.

.

不能同時做到這兩點, 你的人格不完整.

有時, 承認自己的優點, 比承認自己的缺點更需勇氣.

Transformers: The Headmasters

.

但是, 今次沒有”頭領戰士”.

頭領戰士是一隻小機械人加一輛交通工具:

小機械人會變成大機械人的頭部.

而該輛交通工具則會變成大機械人的身體.

.

.

那一輯卡通名叫 Transformers: The Headmasters.

港譯

langle langle 變形金剛

頭領戰士rangle rangle.

.

.

我猜想, 大陸可能會譯作

langle langle 變壓器

校長rangle rangle.

變形金剛

.

今早看langle langle變形金剛二rangle rangle.

估不到有這麼多的機械人.

電腦畫師們, 果然做足功課.

更估不到有這麼多款式的機械人.

牠們也是我年青時候, 變形金剛卡通的主要元素.

.

.

有合體機械人: 七隻”建造派”的機械人, 合體成”破壞者”.

有昆蟲機械人. 無數隻細昆蟲可以合體成一隻大昆蟲.

有女機械人.

有雙生兒機械人: 兩隻可以合體成一輛雪糕車.

有化身人類的機械人.

.

.

故事是類似卡通片的劇情, 沒有任何深度.

不過,  故事線順暢完整.

期待第三集. 不過, 要等到2012.

那時, 我已經是一個老人.
