Sleepless Nights

Thursday, April 28th, 2005

I know kittens are energetic.
I know cats are sort of nocturnal animals (although how do you really call an animal nocturnal when it will sleep for 20 hours in a day?)
But god damn! Could they maybe calm down a hair at night? I finally wound up taking them out front so Deven could get some […]

God of Thunder

I present to you, Thor and Helios.

Well, okay, the direction they’re pictured, it’s really Helios and Thor, but whatever.

Comments should now work

Thursday, April 21st, 2005

I just saw something from TigerT about comments in wordpress.
I turned that option off, so maybe I just unbroke comments. Or maybe you guys are just a bunch of jerks who never say anything. Probably the latter, since I have had a couple comments already, but I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt.

Welcome to the future

Here we are, in the 21st century, and what did I just do? I just burned a CD containing a whopping 200k of data. Not just that; it’s 200k that could compress down to 56k without breaking a sweat.
In addition to this, I also wound up printing roughly 30 pages of text. Of course, when […]

To Live and Die in Meat Space

Monday, April 18th, 2005

We dove into the realm of infinite-dimension spaces in my math class today.
I can grasp one dimensional space, two dimensional space, and three dimensional space. Four is really awkard, but I can cope with it. Above that, I really have a hard time, since I want to try and imagine this as something meaningful to […]

All imported

Thursday, April 14th, 2005

There we go; it took me a few minutes to do it, but I nabbed all the entries (a whopping 28 over the past 7 months) from my pybloxsom blog & sucked them into here.
Permalinks to those will be hosed, since I can’t conveniently worry about mimicking the old hierarchy. Of course, I’ll be hosing […]

Headphones

Thursday, April 14th, 2005

A few weeks ago, I got myself a pair of Shure E2c “earphones.” They’re a bit on the pricey side, but I’m pretty happy with them.

They wedge in your ear like earplugs, and once you shove them in, it’s amazing how muffled the outside world becomes. Throw pretty much any sound through them, and you […]

Yet More Bitching About My “Peers”

Thursday, April 14th, 2005

I have a course on compilers, and from day 1, the prof told us that our programming projects would be run & tested on the department’s Solaris box, so anyone without an account on it/experience in unix should start looking into that right away.
Then, a while later, we actually were assigned our first project. Once […]

Here goes nothing

What the hell.
I took a few minutes and cleaned things up so I could cut over to this sucker. And now, once DNS updates propagate around the world, people will start to see this abomination against God and man.

Backstory

Time for a quick recap to get everyone on the same page.
Asbestos
Over a month ago now, I released Asbestos upon the world. In that time, I’ve only made one quick bugfix, as I’ve been too swamped to spend time on it, and it’s to the point that it’s useful for my needs. Sadly, I have […]
