What the hell does one do when one’s sister is the incredibly destructive control freak? I am being driven to near suicide because my little sister (56) emulates nearly every damn thing I do.. and yet she is an academic with a seemingly ‘perfect’ life, lots of money, no debt, several houses, influential in the community, and yet totally devoted to destroying my somewhat unconventional poor but happy life?? Even distancing myself for 12 months has resulted in her spreading ludicrous and totally unfounded allegations about me, probably/possibly relating to periods when we were children…! because she knows damn all about my adult life.. And yet our mother believes the sun shines out of… and also believes me to be the vile bitch the control freak has denounced me as… jeepers… I never realised there really were such things…as real control freaks… psychopath? sociopath maybe?

Comment on Celebrating the ordinary by Eager Reader

Celebrating the ordinary exploits the frailty of human perception in one more subtle way: it sabotages deserved celebrations by drowning them in the mass. People will have difficulties in keeping both kinds of celebrations apart, they might stop attending the deserved ones and might even get so confused that they start snubbing them. A brilliant move!

Comment on Statistical significance by Maggie

But this completely ignores the bias due to the fact that (a) people who feel strongly about the issue or who have time to reply or believe in the concept of polling will actually reply and (b) polling inevitably reaches only certain areas or groups of people. Personally I hate it when I see polls quote a “3 percent margin of error”. That may be statistically correct according to Poisson statistics, but it is still complete B.S. to use that poll for policy making. All it means is that they polled 1000 people–who could be all from a Republican district, or all living in suburbia, or all in some way NOT representative of the population as a whole.

Comment on Forcing password changes by Al Maloney

A simple way to create a password that is reasonably secure is to take the name of a book that one can remember, use the first letter of the name (upper &/or lower case), add the last two digits of the year of publication, then the initials of the author (upper &/or lower case).
