merge sort, the eater of nodes

I’m so tickled to have completed an assignment for my Linux kernel class. The specification was as follows: Modify the algorithm that allocates a file descriptor for the open() and socket() calls. Implement a per-process variable availableFileDescriptor whose value is always the number of the first available file descriptor. Make sure that when a process [...]

quick lesson in love and groceries

Do not let your boyfriend convince you that he just loooooves eggnog and that three one-quart cartons of it in its various incarnations (e.g., Silk Nog, Custard Nog, and old-fashioned eggnog) is just barely enough; that yes, he’ll definitely drink all of it before its expiration date; that goodness! he’ll most likely drink it all [...]

House of Leaves

I bought a new book last night: House of Leaves by Mark Z. Danielewski. And by “new”, I mean new to me, not new as in it just came out. It apparently was published in 2000 but I just now heard about it (on Reddit, actually) and got intrigued so I bought [...]

Jon, foot, mouth

Jon and I were just making some espresso in the kitchen and talking about one of our favorite Mexican restaurants. The food is excellent when you go at dinnertime, but when you come around lunch, they must have different cooks or something because their food isn’t nearly as good. It’s still tasty, but [...]

sleep and bellies

Darra, my software engineering partner, sent me what she’d worked up for our presentation tomorrow in class. I just finished going over it, and I’ve also finished my algorithms homework, meaning… I’m free!!! Of course, at this point I’m pretty much just free to go to bed, but it’s still nice to [...]

paper done and slow-ass clinic

I finished my programming paper! I’ve sent a copy to Jon to review it and should hopefully mail it off to my professor tonight. After the semester’s over, I plan on releasing my programs for that class on here, probably under the GPL as I’ve done in the past. I’ll stick that [...]

finisher of summaries and snuggler of the sick

I’ve been pretty productive today, considering it’s a Saturday and I usually try to slack off on Saturdays. I have accomplished the following: Finished the final three paper summaries for my software engineering class, which is fortunate since they were due today; Wrote a good part of a new layout for this site (guess it doesn’t [...]

giving up on the day, possibly due to frozen milk

I probably ought to go to bed and as soon as I take a shower (which will happen promptly after I finish this post…), I will. I don’t know why I have such a time getting to bed, but I always seem to drag my feet about it. Tony commented once that he’s [...]

PC hard drive dying

I don’t know if I blogged about it, but I certainly complained on Twitter about my Macbook hard drive eating itself at the beginning of the semester. Well, just this morning my Windows hard drive in my PC started acting up. When I booted the computer, I got a “DISK READ ERROR INSERT [...]

food storage and wife beaters

These are a couple of funny stories that I don’t think I’ve shared on here before, involving Jon and me: Are you saving that for later? Jon and I were sitting on my couch, each with a helping of some of my home-made cheesecake and peach ice cream (real calorie-counters, us). While we were eating, I [...]
