Magic and language in fantasy fiction. Since I've been musing about fiction recently, here's another thought that crossed my mind. Fantasy fiction often has a magic system involving spells cast in spoken language. But. Why does that language work and not another? Would it depend on the spell? An attempted taxonomy; vague hints at content of many fantasy books. So, what have I missed? Comments Leave a comment. Random fiction question: non-magical archaeology.

People don't know their classics - Simon Tatham

http://simont.livejournal.com/241311.html

People don't know their classics - Simon Tatham. People don't know their classics. At work the other day a fellow developer and I were discussing incomplete array types in C, and at one point in the conversation he referred to them using a phrase which gave me a perfect opportunity to reply ‘Arrays of Unspecified Size? I don't think they exist.’ Sadly, I got a blank look. Have any other reply than ‘Bunnies, bunnies, it must be bunnies’ –. Bah People don't know their classics! Comments Leave a comment.

Random fiction question: non-magical archaeology - Simon Tatham

Random fiction question: non-magical archaeology - Simon Tatham. Random fiction question: non-magical archaeology. The Ark of the Covenant, the Holy Grail, the Dagger of Xian, etc, all really do perform as advertised. What are the best known examples of fictional archaeologists who do. Unearth ancient magical artefacts, and the only thing they ever find out is information about what happened in the past? For these purposes, I think I'm going to rule that the actual archaeological discoveries have to be.

Sleep is a substitute for caffeine, it turns out - Simon Tatham

http://simont.livejournal.com/241793.html

Sleep is a substitute for caffeine, it turns out - Simon Tatham. Sleep is a substitute for caffeine, it turns out. After a couple of weekends of hard work on free software recently, I was feeling pretty tired, and decided to dedicate the weekend just past to intensive rest and catching up on my sleep. It turns out that if I really try hard to catch up on sleep, and succeed, then I become noticeably more caffeine-. And I can't even use ‘being half asleep’ as an excuse…. Comments Leave a comment.

You are here - shadows of echoes of memories of songs. 10:44 pm November 20th, 2014. I also don't know who's reading this any more. I'm terrible at keeping up with reading LJ myself, so I feel I can't really ask other people to read/comment on what I write; and while I sit there chewing my fingernails in that particular dark cave of fail, lots of beautiful friendships melt away. Who's reading this? Have you all gone to Dreamwidth? Comment by Angelic Eye for the Gendered-Species Individual. I am here and ...

The adventures of a strange singing girl. Immer noch lieblicher als tausend Küsse. Feb 15th, 2009 @ 02:04 am. FOSDEM 2009 in snippets. I promised to blog about FOSDEM. So I'd better do so before I forget all the good bits. Bulleted list (with too-long items) of random impressions, as usual. If so, I'll consider switching back to those. Is the most delicious thing in the world if you are a very hungry hobbit. Dinner with lovely people is also greatly to be lauded. It was Kasteel Rouge. I taught a man to k...

November 22nd, 2013 04:19 pm (UTC). It's probably a good thing they didn't arrive in a well defined order.

Argh - Travels With My Zebra. Dec 23rd, 2009. If we're going to have nice fluffy dreams (my tiny baby was chattering away to me enthusiastically at a few days old, I think), could they please not end by dreaming the sound of my Extremely Loud Doorbell at 4am? It's really cold downstairs at the moment. Thanks ever so,. Posted via LiveJournal.app. December 23rd, 2009 08:58 am (UTC). December 23rd, 2009 09:02 am (UTC). December 23rd, 2009 10:47 am (UTC).

I bet this is an iPhone app by now. Why hasn't this happened yet? Do you want to write the code for it, maybe not for Google Calendar but for some other equivalent program? PS Here is a post I liked very much. About how we should just get the fuck over ourselves and start talking openly about menstruation in society as a whole. I would not have necessarily made this a public post without having read that. But why filter this? Posted on Sep. 9th, 2009 at 10:55 am. I was thinking this just the other day!

Ubuntu is analogous to bisexuality, in that it's an often-neglected third option which offers greater possibilities than either of its two more popular counterparts. Posted on Feb. 19th, 2010 at 02:44 am. I don't regard bisexuality as fundamentally broken, but Ubuntu is. Posted on Feb. 19th, 2010 03:04 am (UTC). Beat me to it. Posted on Feb. 19th, 2010 11:45 am (UTC). Don't worry, dear. I'm sure you'll find you're just going through an Ubuntu phase. Edited at 2010-02-19 07:19 am (UTC). Looks like Mint is...

On asking me to call a ceilidh. - Sallys Journal. June 6th, 2012. On asking me to call a ceilidh. This is starting to happen a bit more, so I thought it might be useful to jot down a FAQ. On the other hand, I tend to be a bit conflicted, so this FAQ might not make a lot of sense. What does Sally like about calling ceilidhs? I like lots of people having fun dancing, and the smug feeling I made that happen. I like being the centre of attention, and compliments afterwards ;-). On the other hand, I believe i...
