This blog is partly devoted to the sharing of my learning of the English language (my well mastered mother tongue is Chinese and I am not an English teacher) and its *cultures*, partly to the current significant trends in Canada and in the world, and partly to my own random thoughts and little life. I am not religious, but I am somewhat interested in Christianity and Buddhism, among other personal interests. Welcome. And, have a good day.

Two tidbits about garbage
- The prevalent automatic garbage collection was invented as a solution in Lisp.
- (Data) Garbage in, garbage out.
TIER (try, import, except, raise)
A lovely snippet of code pattern:
try:
import service
except Error:
raise
try:
import service
except Error:
raise
In web apps, every step or user choice is a solution.
In excellent articles or texts, every sentence is an instance of mind stretching, informing, questioning, or problem solving.
