It’s happening again.
Last week, I was caught by captcha. I couldn’t read and therefore failed a captcha challenge when trying to forward a blog post from within Google Reader to multiple recipients.
Just now the captcha death spiral happened again, but this time I think there’s a bug. I passed the first captcha challenge and was [...]
Sometimes, it’s the little things — or big things, depending on how you value it:
Food.
I’ve been traveling back in forth from the Bay Area to New York. In NY sushi restaurants, chefs have bragged about their uni (sea urchin) from California. Fruit in grocery stores is marketed as from California. Right now, I’m eating a [...]
Business travel + working from home = lots of time to see movies. Quick thoughts on what I’ve seen recently, with this subjective grading scale: Must See, I Enjoyed (but you might not), Meh, Pass.
2012: Meh. Modern-day apocalypse with man fighting against man and nature to preserve the human species. If you must see large, [...]
Doh!
I’ve been forwarding a bunch of articles from my Google Account through Google Reader. Subjected to captcha challenges, I failed to read a few properly and now am locked out of Google Reader (IP block) for an indeterminate amount of time. Bummer.

I love books and reading but was unhappy with the clutter of three double-stacked bookshelves and stacks of books everywhere in my apartment. So space savings was the purchase trigger for an electronic reader for me. And in [...]
I just have to say, that in this day and age of cold, calculated, cost cutting and crappy customer service, DreamHost chat support is outstanding.
First and foremost, it’s effective. I just migrated my blog from joonsookim.com/blog to blog.joonsookim.com. I’m not particularly technically savvy — plus, I’m told I can be . . . well, [...]
Alright, I don’t want to get anyone in trouble here, especially after what I sort of consider the kindness of strangers, so I won’t disclose too much detail.
I’m in NYC. I bumped into a couple Google folks — Google folks working on the Nexus One launch. Sincerely, I congratulated them, knowing it was a big [...]
I’ve just upgraded my WordPress installation so that I’ll at least have the option to begin blogging again — although I don’t know what I’ll do with the luxury of more than 140 characters! Since the last time I upgraded, Dreamhost certainly has made it extremely easy — literally, perhaps 4-5 clicks. The plug-in I used [...]
My favorite sushi in the world. Today’s “trust me” omakase offerings: maguro & toro sashimi in ponzu, hamachi, shiro maguro with ponzu, warm crab hand roll, giant clam, uni, oysters, scallops, lobster hand roll, unagi. Very, very full right now.
