Web Applications & Technology
Yes, I realize there’s been a lack of actual content with the blog.
I apologize.
Instead, you keep getting my personal ramblings. Yikes.
I’m currently working on an entry on Facebook and how it’s changing social networking in the real world, as well as a post on why I started buying books again, especially technical books.
Yahoo! Homework is going swimmingly. I’m almost set, except for a little JavaScript magic which should take about an hour, as well as going for a couple more bonus points for compatibility with multiple browsers. That’ll be most of tomorrow spent at Grainger.
Which brings me to a few things I have to finish up as I leave Grainger. Subversion demo/presentation is tomorrow at 10, and so I am completing some documentation for that.
Need coffee. Not an all-nighter, but I just need a boost.
By the way, Dave Brubeck is amazing. Someone please point me to some other good Jazz musicians… this is a new genre of music I need to continue exploring.
Oh, and beer tasting. Something tells me I’ll be… slightly inebriated tomorrow.
Let’s see… more randomness…
Grainger’s full today. All the nerds are studying for their finals. Why wasn’t I like this back in the day…
Oh one last thing I’ve realized… I cannot get work done at my apartment here on campus. One thing, my apartment is not very inviting for work, because of the horrible desk height/chair combo (as well as the lighting). I’m going to have to revisit some ergonomic issues later, but… looks like it doesn’t really matter much anymore. I’m really amazed that I got any work done in the past 4 months there… wow.
A larger issue is that… I have a feeling I really do have to get out from where I sleep to get work done. Be it the kitchen table… or even a separate office room. This is all, of course, planning for the days of the start-up.
Look at the time, back to work!
I keep forgetting to turn off bathroom lights.
Last time I was at home, my mom told me how I left the first floor bathroom light on. I only remember doing it once, but I she told me that I do it quite often. It turns out… I actually left it on twice already that week.
I wasn’t sure why I would forget to do such a thing… then I figured it out. Right now.
I left the bathroom light on at my apartment because I was so focused. I was watching Jessica Livingston’s Tech Talk at Google.
Focus. Wonderful! But… eccentricity… crap.
Just one more reason to call Josh Kim “weird”. And “metacognitioner”.
Josh Kim is back.
Not sure for how long. Not that most people knew I left, but alas. I am here.
Sidenote: I still call it coming “back”. Interesting…
