I work at the University of New South Wales, where I use Ruby to analyze biological data.

In part of my spare time, I work on fun programming projects. One was trying to analyze what underlies Wikipedia's Get to Philosophy game. I also worked on one called the "Small Eigen Collider".

I'm currently learning Japanese, and I'm an active participant in lang-8.com, a website where you write journal entries in a language you're learning, and get corrected by native speakers of that language. In return, you correct people writing entries in your native language. Recently, I've been asking a few questions prompted by slightly incorrect English I've encountered on lang-8.

comment Do miracles violate the laws of physics?
In scenarios 2 and 3, I discussed God being capable of bending the laws of physics, but asked in the subsequent paragraph as to whether it'd be against God's nature.

@Marcgravell are you referring to the momentum objects on earth have, and what would happen (under our understanding of physics) if they kept moving but the earth didn't?

comment Source of Christian attitudes towards fantasy and role playing games
@SeanMcMillan: It's ironic - I didn't mean "sexed up" in a literal sense, I meant it as in hyped up :O See also this and this, though I was mistaken in thinking it was deliberate

Role playing games, not the other kind of role playing!

comment Source of Christian attitudes towards fantasy and role playing games
This is the first example of a "sexed up" title I've encountered from Christianity.SE! I've suggested adding "games" to the title to disambiguate a bit.

+1: I assumed that the answer was no, but I wasn't aware of these verses.
