Work
Long days. Yesterday I fought with a telecom provider; we have quit the
contract for a few leased lines by the end of April. After we sent the fax,
about an hour later, they started cutting the connections... This is the same
company that is struggling with an ISDN30 connection since January, and is
about to finish the project of installing about 300 feet of *temporary*
cable from the closest distributing point.
Developer dreams
Did someone mention Forth? Funny. I'm also planning an embedded forth
(something) for my own purposes, but it's quite unfinished. It has the most
basic looping construct, and character output ready for i386 and m68k Linux. I
have this weird attraction to embedded devices, and if I have some time, with a
friend, we will build something capable of anything a smaller clock would do :)
It's an interesting language, but these spawns later than '80 took a bit beauty
of it (ehrm, postscript, GNU forth is a bit overkill too, IMHO).
I'm attracted to electronized sound making devices, starting with C64, Amiga
soundtracker, I have a few Amiga hard disks stashed away waiting for saving the
music from them, that's why I value the projects of data. I don't think that's
wrong :)
Someone has a related project too here. He's working at
a few more audio projects.
