This week I'll be home taking care of the children. This is real work, in contrast to the things I do at my regular job. Looking after a one-year-old and a three-year-old child is not a light task. I have been doing this now for five days, since Thursday. Even this short period has been both physically and mentally exhausting. Perhaps I only need practise. Of course, I have been doing the same on weekends and evenings. But it is not the same thing when there are two of you sharing the task. I'm admiring the skills and patience of my wife more and more.

Leash the car drivers! -- Comment()
Today appeared my net column titled 'Leash the car drivers!' (in Finnish, Autoilijat kuriin!). This text was written some time ago, and tells how information technology can be used to cure some of the embarrasing Finnish characteristics, for example the bad behaviour of the Finnish car drivers. Combine the digital identity card with a remotely controlled GPS-based car positioning system, and you can solve all kinds of traffic problems, at least in theory.
