I remember reading it a while back, and found it amusing, but now it's absolutely hilarious

Often times I feel like this when discussing politics:

NSDateFormatter *dateFormatter = [[[NSDateFormatter alloc]
initWithDateFormat:@"%1m/%1d/%Y" allowNaturalLanguage:NO] autorelease];
NSDate *date = [NSDate dateWithTimeIntervalSinceReferenceDate:118800];
NSString *formattedDateString = [dateFormatter stringFromDate:date];
I am not a java bigot, but come on... a Date.toString() would be nice :-)

Just for the interested, wxWidgets basically rocks.

well, as of today we ave FiOS at the Landsberger house and not Comcast - I've always wanted my own strand of Fiber to my house :)

apparently overloading '()' is faster than overloading [][] ... that seems shocking to me

ooh, cppreference.com has a new layout, nice :)

I wouldn't mind it if regular expressions were included in the ANSI C library...

just a thought :)

Lately it seems that I have a kajallion things going on. At the moment I'm working with and learning several technologies. For instance, I'm currently working on the following projects:

* A VFS in C that uses libcurl and libneon at work

* An iPhone Healthcare app (of course written in Objective C and Cocoa)

* MIPS assembly stuff for my Systems Engineering class

* Some QT stuff

* Some webapps here and there

* I keep thinking of writing a linear algebra system in C++ for my math class...

It's old (10 days) news, but still pretty good news. Django is a pretty slick webapp framework, and now after being in development for quite some time it has hit 1.0. To all those who have worked on it over the years - Congrats! -b

This session marks a whole year of attending classes at Regis, and during this enrollment session I am taking CS440 (Computer Organization/Architecture) and MT415 (Linear Algebra) - all in 8 weeks - yikes!
