Resumes
This is just a funny coincidence. I’m in the process of sorting through a large stack of applications for a position that recently opened up. I’ve been shocked at the large number of grammatical and spelling errors that occur in these things. I’m not a great writer by any stretch of the imagination, but I can’t imagine sending out a job application without having at least run the spelling and grammar check.

BTW, I don’t know how many of my numerous adoring fans monitor this site via an RSS NewsReader. However, the link for the RSS feed has changed. Please replace your link with http://www.lostinok.com/index.xml.
Update Complete
Well that didn’t take nearly as long as I had anticipated. Still a few wrinkles to work out but all in all everything seems to be back to normal. I gave the site a slightly more “standard” blog look.

Let me know what you think.

A Great Read
I just finished a fascinating book called The Code Book by Simon Singh. A fascinating history of cryptography and cryptanalysis throughout history that tells not only the great history of this secret world but also explains all of that funky math with a brilliant level of explanation. This guy is the math professor we all would have loved in college unlike that strange creature who we all ended up with who didn’t speak any earthly language and wrote in some strange script that was designed for Martians.
