Missing Death Note...

-
Until June 26,2007, friday evenings invariably included watching a freshly downloaded episode of death-note (Official website). The best subs were most often by kuro-hana, but they stopped after being served a C&D from the copyright owners.
I haven't really found a replacement for death note for my weekly dose of intrigue... any suggestions ? please feel free to leave them in comments.

[This post has been due for some time... and here it comes] I now know how Gandhi must have felt on the 15th of August, 1947! I now know how being free feels! I just had an experience with Ubuntu that was quite moving! I got this Dell laptop, which I carried with me to my parent's place at Chennai, INDIA, which has wireless home network. I booted it up with the Ubuntu fawn live CD and it came up nicely with a gNOME desktop and all. What really impressed me was that it detected the wireless network around and asked me the WEP key for it. I typed in the key and zip! I was connected to the internet! I am browsing and I created this blog+ post while on ubuntu on live CD!

A specification to specify specifications within specifications

-
Anyone who has worked in a project involving writing some software would have come across specifications of some kind - those holy documents written by the project elite that are a pain both to implement as well as to maintain and serve nothing more than as a hurdle to getting to a working product. Often spec documents either derive from another or many such documents build, by way of cross-reference, a connected specification which soon creates a need for another document to describe the relationship between these docs... which, of course, has to be kept up-to-date not only whenever any specification is updated but also when there are relationship updates or when new nodes come up etc. Soon anyone entering the project has to pass through this wall made of the interconnected web of specs only to understand soon enough that the product he/she is working on is quite different from what the specifications are dreaming about. Often times, to the authors the specs are sacrosanct and reality
