I had written my diary entry already, but
unfortunately I have learned that Internet Explorer can
crash at the worst times.
I want very
much to be programming in SDL again, but haven't got
sdl_image and sdl_mixer to work under Mac OS X, so I
am spinning my wheels. Anyone with any info, contact
me!!!
While cooking dinner (more later on it), I
listened forf a while to
TechNetCast, and most interesting was a stream about
.net. It gave a lot of talk about what
exactly CLR is and what it means. The speaker gave a
lot of interesting remarks about java, and open source.
He said that Sun is doing the same stuff as .net and
that both teams (M$ & Sun) have been working off of
each others work. Interestingly he gave a very nice
compliment to open source, calling us the artists. He
compared VB programmers and the sort to liquor
salesmen (ok, to really get this listen to the stream).
My last thing of the day has been cooking. I have
tried once again to make risotto, and it came out much
better this time. Cooking is my third love (after my
fiance Emily Janovyak, whom I will marry next summer,
and open source programming). I really wish I could
attend some cooking classes or lessons. Maybe I can
get an internship at a nice eatery, and learn on
weekends (although I don't think my resume which is
all technical and greenhouse work would really
impress them at all). Maybe someday....
