		<title>Minor Lasts</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m leaving San Diego in less than two weeks, so I&#8217;m starting to notice in the back of my mind that I&#8217;m doing certain things for &#8220;The Last Time&#8221;. You know, like, this is The Last time I&#8217;ll fuel up at the Chevron by my house. Or: this is The Last Time I&#8217;ll have sushi [...]]]></description>

		<title>Joseph Auricchio: Master of Science</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Today I presented &#038; defended my final project, fulfilling the last requirement for the degree Master of Science. This makes me the first in my family to earn a graduate degree.
College has been a long, fun trip. I&#8217;m sad to leave, even as I&#8217;m eager for the next chapter to begin.

		<title>Apple</title>
		<description><![CDATA[On 16 Jan 2012, I will join Apple as a Core OS Engineer. I&#8217;m excited, a bit nervous, and deeply honored.
I&#8217;m very thankful for everyone who helped me in ways large and small during my job hunt-I couldn&#8217;t have done it without you. Especial thanks to P.K. and A.P. I am in your debt.
Peculiarly, there [...]]]></description>

		<title>Hire Me!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My job search has been concluded
I&#8217;m looking for a full-time engineering job, starting in January 2012, in San&#160;Francisco (or reachable from there with shuttle/pubtrans). 1
I work on low-level software and high-level hardware. I make the inside guts ugly so the outside product can be pretty. Then I make the inside pretty too. I&#8217;m allergic to [...]]]></description>

		<title>I love my bike</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Today I:

Got a haircut.
Went to Infusions of Tea and had a cup and read a couple of chapters of the book.
Went to Gamestop and bought Portal 2.
Went to Sears and bought a socket driver, a small assortment of sockets, and [...]]]></description>

		<title>Thoughts on Fukushima Daiichi</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Yet again, people have heard erroneous and/or misleading and/or sensationalized warnings about a set of unfortunate events befalling a complicated and potentially dangerous system. (&#8220;A lie can get halfway around the world while the truth is putting on its shoes&#8221;, attributed to Twain). Today it happens to be Fukushima Daiichi.
Yet again, it is the solemn [...]]]></description>

		<title>Why You Don&#8217;t Want ZFS on Mac OS X</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Scott told me yesterday about a company bringing Sun&#8217;s ZFS filesystem to Mac OS X, picking up where Apple left off.
To be honest, I don&#8217;t understand why someone would try porting ZFS now. What Apple offered wasn&#8217;t just a new filesystem. Users don&#8217;t care about filesystems: they are a technical detail. Instead, Apple would change [...]]]></description>

		<title>Music for Airports</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Ambient 1: Music for Airports, 1/1, by Brian Eno
A: listened to this waiting for a girl at midnight at Minneapolis&#8217; airport. She never showed up. Me and a custodian were the only ones there. It was snowing. This was perfect. I will always remember that.
B: sounds like a perfect night, your girl ditched you and [...]]]></description>

		<title>Snow!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Hooray! It&#8217;s snowing in Boston!
Last night and today I went out walking around Allston to explore this new world of low-density crystalline water. I walked, stepped, kicked, and jumped through all kinds of snow. Still-falling light powder, week-old crunchy crystals, blobs of ice, snow with salt, snow with dirt, slippery snow, rock-hard snow, dry snow, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Nested Makefiles are Awful</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I propose a new rule for software development:
A Makefile from one project should never recurse to a Makefile from a different project, unless using a subshell with a clean environment.
In other words, if you must automatically build another project, you should do it in a way indistinguishable from the way it would be built directly [...]]]></description>
