Leave No Trace on Internet
There is no way the in-private or incognito mode can really leave absolutely no trace for web surfing, but there are some precautions from this article one can take to erase more potential traces. The last paragraph from article is about flusing out the DNS store.
In Windows, you can use “ipconfig /displaydns” from the command line to see what sites have been stored, and “ipconfig /flushdns” to clean them out. Mac users, meanwhile, simply need to invoke “dscacheutil -flushcache” from Terminal to return everything back to normal. If all goes well, you’ll likely never have a surprise party of gift purchase spoiled again.

A Short List of Places to Visit in NYC
我如何安排时间（译自陶哲轩博客）- (转载自Liu,Xiaochuan的博客)
（原文：On time management by Terry Tao）（译文原稿来自这里）
受到一些评论的鼓励，我最终决定在这里写一些关于如何安排时间的建议。其实，我有这个打算已经一段时间了，可是就我自己的情况而言，这方面也还在做着探索（读者应该看看我等着写的论文排了多少！）而且很多想法未必成熟。（已经有一些经验写在advice on writing papers,比如page on rapid prototyping）而且，我的一些个人经验恐怕也不能对所有人通通适用，因为每个人都有不同的性格类型以及工作状态。欢迎大家把自己的想法啊，经验啊，或者建议在评论中写出来。（其实，即使我自己的经验，我有时候也不能严格的遵照，挺遗憾的。）
这些经验并不系统，我慢慢的叙述如下。首先，我足够的幸运，自己的很多优秀的合作者都在我们合作的工作中付出了大量的心血。比如最近我的博客大家看到的论文，很多都在很大的程度上是我的合作者们辛勤劳作的成果。一般来讲，我觉得几个人合作的时候，虽然常常要花费的时间要多一些，但是每个人实际花费的力气却令人吃惊的少，而文章的质量却更高。我发现自己可以同时与很多人在不同的工作中合作（因为常常他们为主，或者该工作实际上在等待进一步发展。）可是在我独自写论文的时候，我却只能同时只做一件工作。
Finding Parking
Finding a parking meter or parking garage for short term parking can be painful, here are some good websites I found, especially useful for parking in Boston.
- Primo Spot is so far one of the best websites providing both on-street parking and garage parking information, but it only covers NYC, Boston and Seattle.
- Boston Parking can calculate the parking rates by locations and hours
- Parkopedia shows the types of parking on google map
- Parking Carma gives list of garage parking with daily and hourly rates
- Parking Spotter mainly lists daily or monthly parking information.
- Parkwhiz (this lists more of daily parking)
