You Lifted Me Out
Psalm 40
For the director of music. Of David. A psalm.
1 I waited patiently for the LORD; he turned to me and heard my cry. 2 He lifted me out of the slimy pit, out of the mud and mire; he set my feet on a rock and gave me a firm place to stand. 3 He put a new song in my mouth, a hymn of praise to our God. Many will see and fear and put their trust in the LORD.

Here is something really deep and meaningful. Blah blah blah life. Blah blah blah love. Blah blah blah forever. Get over yourself.
Let the Robot Drive: The Autonomous Car of the... →
As we drive the Google car—or are driven by it—I watch the action unfold on the computer monitor mounted on the passenger side of the dashboard. It shows how the car is interpreting the world: lanes, signs, cars, speeds, distances, vectors. The rendering is nothing special—a lot of blocky wireframe that puts me in mind of Atari’s classic Battlezone. (The display is just one of a host of geeky...

Hehehe. “Second fifth.” Sounds so weird. I suppose that perhaps there should be a hyphen between “fifth” and “week”. But for once, I am not inclined to consider the implications of hypen-less-ness. Or to be accurate in general. Work is ramping up, and I’m tired and wanting midterms to be over. But what’s really cool about all this… With all...

“I am so not impressed with your love for God. I am impressed by God’s love...”
Even on a mere four hours of sleep
(which is very little for me right now, all right?), what joy I find welling up from me as I quiet myself and meditate on God’s perfections. He is holy, He is love, He is great, He has all power, knowledge, and wisdom. He is absolutely pure and absolutely merciful and absolutely just. He knows my future, He knows my past, He knows my present, which even escapes my understanding at times....
Psalm 13 - Prayer for Help in Trouble
1 How long, O LORD? Will You forget me forever? How long will You hide Your face from me? 2 How long shall I take counsel in my soul, Having sorrow in my heart all the day? How long will my enemy be exalted over me?
3 Consider and answer me, O LORD my God; Enlighten my eyes, or I will sleep the sleep of death, 4 And my enemy will say, “I have overcome him,” And my adversaries will rejoice...
