Am now working on implenting a IMA algorithim for Nethawk, www.nethawk.fi, taking over the pile of crud left behind by our supposed expert in embedded programming. Before getting anywhere in the code you first have to decode the mess that is the C++ code nestled within those .c files, yeap, C++ code, complete with this pointer (pTHIS) dereferencing before any function is called. Every structure declaration, which are supposed to be objects, even comes with its own constructo

Well, it's official, ~L and I have parted ways. What? I hear you say, the last I heard she was arriving in a few days. Well yes, she arrived, and it was great! I loved spending time with her, however things started to go south as she grew to understand our different views on the immediate future.

EDIT: Sorry babe, I love u sweety and I miss u so very much. :(

This has got to be the worst day of my short life in Hamilton. Working on thesis corrections! sigh. I think I pretty much ran out every excuse I could think of not to go back to this bound slice of hell, but today I bit the bullet, got my thesis out and started working through the corrections. Most of em are stupid little errors, I'll be expanding a bit on some stuff that came clear to me after I had submitted the thing, when I was cleaning up the implentation. I gota say this is about

Okay so I decided to try cutting wood to work up a sweat then going to the gym, which worked rather well except for the blisters. Wade, my flatmate, decided to kill a number of trees today. Not content with leaving them quietly converting carbon dioxide to oxygen, he hacked away at the trees to make a pretty fence. Replacing them with other smaller trees with lesser carbon dioxide removal ability. Don't ask me what sort of tree it was, thats not whats important here. What is, is that 2 big tr

Well plans have been moved along rather brusquely! ~L and I have decided that the distance between us is proving rather more then just inflated ph bills and increased microwave exposure. We think it would be better if she was here, living (down the street) and working in the general area to help with the relationship. Figured it was a little to much to expect a hitch free marriage after only 2 1/2 months in the same area together.

Well I'm busting my ass at work on a Saturday working on a library for Endace. Haven't updated the journal in a while but it looks likely that as I write this Laura is reading my other entries :p

Yup HEAPS has happened since my last entry! I'll save the complete update for later, suffice to say, I did get to Seattle and meet ~L! And in about 2 1/2 months she'll be moving down here to stay for a while! I'll leave the obvious logical deductions for later.

I have 2 weeks to go before I hand in this MSc of hell and dispair.

My 2nd draft was a complete mess! Idea's everywhere, no cohesive thought process, etc.. Have managed to rewrite\reorder almost the entire thing in 8 days, so looking forward to a week of just solid dotting t's and i's.

It is official; Netcraft confirms: MP3 is dying

Yup, one more day working in my Dad's office.

I'm so damn tired I think I'm going to pass out on my keyboard soon. The ol thought processes have slowed to that of an old man wondering the streets under a cruel July moon. Don't bite me for the analogy, the very fact it hurts is indicative of where I am right now.

Anywayz, I suppose I really have to get this piece of chapter worked out. I've rewritten the damn thing about 4 times and I'm still having to go back and change it.

Neo: Do you always look at it in binary?

Cypher: Well you have to. The compilers work for the construct program. But there's way too much information to decode the Matrix. You get used to it. I...I don't even see the code. All I see is an array, function pointer, integer. Hey, you uh... want a drink?

Neo: Sure.
