Tue May 09 2000 07:07 When midterms attack!:
The CS132 midterm met my father in an arbitrary number of nested
steel cages. I think some of my early calculus midterms may have
been worse than that midterm, but apart from that... Oh, the pain.
There was one question on regular expressions/DFAs and all the
rest were on recreating the jovial antics of the parser.
On the bright side, I'm feeling a lot better. Disease-wise, I
mean. Also, the midterm was only 25% of the grade, and the final
is noncumulative, so if I start going to class I'll do okay.
There was something I wanted to put here, but I forgot.
I'll put it in here when I remember what it was.
Tue May 09 2000 13:01 And who's this Crick fellow?:
James D. Watson is coming on campus today to talk about his
new book. I was staring at the promotional flyer thinking "Hmm,
that name sounds familiar." Duh.
Tue May 09 2000 21:12 So close, and yet...:
The machine that hosts segfault and crummy, project.linux.com, has been moved.
Unfortunately, getting segfault back on the air requires the cooperation
of two of the most sluggish forces on earth: Network Solutions and
Scott James Remnant. I have to contact Scott (I'm probably going to
have to call him) and then he has to change the IP and DNS info
for segfault.
Crummy also requires the cooperation of two of the most sluggish
forces on earth: Network Solutions and me. Fortunately, I'm on the
ball and have already sent my form in to NSI so that they can tell
me they can't accept it.
Network Solutions: Because someone's got to employ all those
ex-Soviet bureaucrat refugees.
Tue May 09 2000 21:42 Automation frees the workers!:
Hm, looks like all the bureaucrats have been put out of a job. I
actually changed my nameserver information correctly. Of course,
it'll be a while til it {heals,propagates}.
It's been great to live on editthispage for a while, but it will
be better to live on NewsBruiser. Whee!
