Langue [en]

J’ai récemment fait un peu de triage dans mes archives, et j’ai collecté pour vous les pages suivantes (certaines sont encore incomplètes…):

  • Pensées
  • Cogito
  • Six semaines en Inde

Vous remarquerez que les liens que je vous ai donnés vous fournissent uniquement les entrées en français. Pour voir la page bilingue ou bien l’anglais uniquement, utilisez les liens situés dans la colonne de droite de chaque page. Si vous désirez tenter une traduction automatique du texte en anglais, à  l’aide du petit bouton “EN” que vous trouverez tout en haut de chaque page à  côté du logo, je vous recommande de sélectionner tout d’abord la page en anglais uniquement: cela vous évitera à  avoir à  subir la retraduction en français des portions déjà  françaises de la page.

Site [en]

In addition to the page of thoughts I put together a few days ago, here is another one, collecting entries of longer thinking posts together. These two pages are not complete yet, as I still have to make my way through a few months of archives. Keep checking them during the next days.

The India index page has been updated, and all the posts pertaining to my recent six-week holiday there can be found on one page. I’ve also started sorting out book posts.

Mail [en]

Even if net presence in India is booming (well, actually, it has-boomed), connections aren’t as reliable as they are back home. I regularly have problems accessing my site and my email.

As always, it seems that my most reliable address is my university one. If you want to make sure I read you, best is to cc your message to my university address too. As for those of you who aren’t interested in reaching me by email, sorry for boring you with all the gory details!

Hosting [en]

I’ve been very happy with my host up till now (a nice friend who is not making me pay a cent for his services). Unfortunately, the traffic this site is generating (300Mb a month and climbing) is starting to be too much for his server. Does anybody know of good hosting solutions (reliable but adapted to a student’s budget) I could switch to?

Feedback Bug [en]

Don’t worry if you tried using the feedback form and got an error message. The form works fine – the error message is generated because there is a little problem with the page confirming that your message has reached me. I’ll fix it once I’m back home…

Photos [en]

If you try to look at my photos, you must be getting a whole bunch of nasty php error messages. All my apologies – it probably has something to do with the server shift, and I’ll try to get it fixed as fast as possible.

Site [en]

After quite a lot of waiting and fingernail gnawing, the site is back up. All my apologies for those of you who were faced with a “server not found” error message. I hope you’ll enjoy the reading I kept in store for you.

Downtime [en]

If you are reading this, it means that the dns for my site has propagated down to you. The server which hosts my site was moved from Lausanne to Geneva, and unfortunately I didn’t keep myself informed at my host’s site – hence the nasty surprise I had when I tried to check my mail after my arrival in India.

Sorry to everybody who had to cope with bounced emails and frustrating attempts to connect to my site.

Deal [en]

I bought a new computer. A very good deal. For 620.- Frs., I get a PIII 450MHz, 256Mb RAM, a 32Mb Asus graphics card, two CD burners, an internal Zip drive, and a pretty neat 17″ monitor.

The only problem is that I now realize I’m going to have to redo all my scans: my crappy old monitor made me lighten them a shade too much. That’s what you get for working with bad tools!

But that’ll be for when I come back from India, folks. I’m off in three days!

  • Guide de survie anti-doomscrolling en cas de catastrophe04.01.2026
    Pour les personnes dont le cerveau reste coincé sur la chaîne catastrophe Crans-Montana (TDAH ou pas): il faut décrocher. Dans cette vidéo j’explique pourquoi et ce qui peut vous aider à y réussir, concrètement. Sorry elle est un peu longue… Je reproduis ci-dessous ce que j’ai publié sur Facebook: Il faut absolument (j’insiste) décrocher.

  • Et alors, 2025?31.12.2025
    2025 a été une année compliquée. Ce soir, je n’ai pas l’énergie de faire un bilan. L’envie, oui. L’énergie, non. Et c’est tout 2025, ça: dire non, renoncer, laisser tomber, m’entraîner à accepter que je ne peux pas faire ce que j’aimerais faire. “On ne peut pas tout faire”, c’est une très mauvaise formule. Car … Continue reading "Et alors, 2025?"

    Je cherche des métaphores. Je cherche une façon fait ressentir clairement à autrui ce qui se passe pour moi quand j’en fais « trop », neuf mois après mon accident, même après tout ce temps. Ce ne sont que des métaphores. Aucune ne fonctionne vraiment comme il faudrait. Je n’ai pas de point de référence … Continue reading "Noël du cerveau pas si joyeux"

He’s an old cat with many ailments, hanging on to a life still good enough. You need to read The Cat Who Woke Me Up (thanks, Doc). It’s beautiful in so many … Continue reading "It’s Not Good"
  • Comment on foire? (ou: comment souper tard mène à la cuisine déprimante)14.12.2025
    Depuis quelques semaines j’ai un rendez-vous hebdomadaire avec ma “binôme planning”. Une copine, TDAH bien aligné sur le mien (ou le mien sur le sien), aussi tendance à la surcharge d’agenda qui fait finir sur les rotules. Une affaire qui roule (pas sur les rotules). On parle évidemment de problématiques TDAH en marge de l’agenda, … Continue reading "Comment on foire? (ou: comment souper tard mène à la cuisine déprimante)"
