We've finally reached assembly language programming in my digital logic class,
which is something I've been looking forward to for a long long time. It the
lowest level programming you can possibly get, and while it's very nitpicking
and tedious, it's still really cool. I love being a geek! :)
And speaking of programming, USA Today has a really interesting article on Digipen,
the school for videogame programmers. I had looked into Digipen when I was
looking at colleges, but it's not accredited so I figured it was a lot safer bet
to get my degree from a "real" university. And if I want to do games, I can
always do my grad work on it. Plus 450 students and only 14 females? That's even
worse than the male/female ration that I have now. Whenever I get to my discrete
math course early so that the class before (some humanities course) is coming
out, it's a shock to relieze "Wow, females actually do go to class at UF" since
it's like 90%+ male in all my classes. Such are the drawbacks of being a
computer engineer.
Here's an article on the inner
Einstein that talks a bit about the man behind all those famous equations.
He was quite an amzaing person, and his theories were revolutionary at the time
which makes him all more the genius. I'd love to be able to come up with new
theories of the universe like he did, but there have only been a few men
throughout history of his caliber and I most definitly am not one of them. Great
article.
Mozilla 1.2.1 has been released,
which fixed a bug in 1.2. Once again, a built in pop-up blocker, tabbed
browsing, and very cool skins make it well worth the download.
