Day 1 – Candy store

Monday, August 7th, 2006

Today was my first day at my new job. Lots of new hire type work for the day, lots of forms to fill out and documents to read. It was really too much for my brain during that time so it rebelled and started to hurt at 2pm. However it got better because that was [...]

AJAX File Manager

Thursday, June 29th, 2006

Relay is an AJAX based file-manager. It looks very pretty, however I’d be curious on how it taxes my little co-located server. If its not slow it might be a nice option for when I am on a strange computer.

Life on the lot

Monday, June 26th, 2006

As expected parking in lots sucks everywhere and Yahoo!’s offices are no exception. I frequent public daily parking lots to my travels to and from NYC and the offenses commited in the pictures detailed on that Flickr account are amusing yet frustrating to me. A couple months ago someone did some nice damage to my [...]

Roll your own .mac service

Tuesday, March 28th, 2006

This guy has written an article on how he implemented his own .mac service. I’ve been waiting for someone to do this, so that I wouldn’t have to figure it out.

Thoughts on Crash

Saturday, February 4th, 2006

Just finished watching the movie Crash. It just hurt to watch it, not because it sucked but because the people it were just suffering through thier lives. Since they suffer they take out the pain they have on the world around them, manifested in racism, anger, frustration, drugs, and violence. The effects of this all [...]

I would love to do this once to some of the more exploitive home users who ask for help a lot.

A New Beginning

Tuesday, January 17th, 2006

Someone said described my point in life right now as a new beginning and that has stuck with me for the past 2 days. Yesterday I started my fulltime job and kicked off my working life with a taste of the mundane. I spent my first day doing manual labor. There were large tangled boxes [...]

I’m Done!

Wednesday, December 21st, 2005

Vector analysis exam is over, my on-campus work obligations are fulfilled. I am complete. Time to move home!

Grades!

Monday, December 19th, 2005

Grades are arriving, so far so good. My first final I ended up with a B+ in the course(Math of Finance). My Data Communication Network Devices course was an A(as expected). The irony is all the course leading up to this one I got C’s in. Why? because the classes sucked, the material was irrelevant [...]

Once In a While They Get It Right

Saturday, December 17th, 2005

Senate was unable to reauthorize the PATRIOT Act and I’m pretty happy about that. I really do not see the benifits in trading significant amounts of privacy so that the government can try to stop terrorists. Why? It will not work, any intelligent human can thwart any number of security measures so by giving away [...]
