  1. I hate days like this.

    by , 02-15-2010 at 01:29 PM
    I forgot my medications this morning and I don't think I got enough sleep last night. My brain is fuzzy and I can't think straight. I can't code. My writing sucks. When I try to read something, I don't remember what I read. I don't know what to do without my brain right now. Guess I'll just play computer games or something.

  3. Response to an ad hominem

    by , 02-13-2010 at 11:31 PM
    I would like to point out that lor's editing of my post on her blog ("I'm a homo") is an ad hominem, and thus a logical fallacy. Not that there's anything wrong with being gay, of course.

    Here's what I originally wrote:

    I am not, however, thankful to Microsoft. The belief that Microsoft made computing more accessible to the general population is a popular misconception among computer newbies. In reality, Microsoft has done almost nothing to contribute to ...

  4. Popular misconceptions on artificial intelligence

    by , 02-12-2010 at 10:36 AM
    I was inspired to write this blog by an article I saw on thetechharald.com:

    There seems to be a lot of misunderstanding as to what artificial intelligence really is. The fact that this sex doll's creator refers to it as an AI is an example of this. Let me make this clear: artificial intelligence is software, or other technological media, that exhibits some properties ...

  5. NotePad Project.

    by , 02-11-2010 at 07:53 PM
    Being a new programmer there is no doubt that in my effort to expand my c# knowledge, there will be alot of questions asked.

    So far my notepad supports scaling the main textbox with the main window, the autoscroll feature so if enough text is entered you can properly scroll through the text. The program also supports Open, Save, Copy, Cut, Paste, Select All and about notepad which opens a new form with some information about the program.

    I am currently tryin to implement ...

  6. Fascinated by CPU organization

    by , 02-09-2010 at 09:35 AM
    I've been reading a book called Principles of Computer Hardware, by Alan Clements. It's a very comprehensive introduction to computer architecture and organization, and, I would say, one of the few good texts on the subject out there. Most books on computer hardware simply list all the components of a generic PC, gloss over their functions, and then launch into a detailed discussion of all the different models available. They never explore the scientific side of the computer or explain how any of ...

  7. Doing math in sed

    by , 02-04-2010 at 02:03 PM
    I like sed primarily for one reason: it's weird. It is, I would say, the only esoteric language anyone uses for practical purposes. Its syntax is illegible to most programmers and appears to the uninitiated as just a bunch of random characters. It uses a lot of slashes, dollar signs, curly brackets, and whatnot. It is one of the least verbose languages in the history of programming, to the extent that no sed command is longer than a single character.

    Another weird thing about sed ...
