Homework One

In CS1121, we will have five "big" programs to write for the semester as homework assignments. The first was assigned not too long ago and will be due this Friday at 10PM. I got a small start on it pretty much right away, which is a good start for the CS guy, as my OTL said that we probably wouldn't start on our stuff til last minute, which would not be good. I'm making decent progress so far; I'm pretty happy with what I've been able to do.
*edit*
I totally ended up finishing it and submitting it as of Monday night. Yay!

We didn't really have many good Pops Gems last lecture, so in lieu of that feature, I can tell you of some funny CS related stuff that's happened to me or that I've done.

I was playing Cards Against Humanity with some friends just last night. I was the Card Czar, and I was judging the card, "Instead of coal, Santa now brings the naughty children ______." I ended up choosing something because of its sheer terribleness, but a close second was "The Sun's Harsh Light," which was played by a fellow CS major.

A nice time-killer for me is making hypothetical computer builds. I go to newegg.com and put together a Wish List with all of the parts for a build. Usually make builds comparable to well-known high-end PCs. Once, not too long ago, I did a Mac build that came out to be about $1500 less, I believe, than the retail cost. Yay PC building!

Finally a link I Stumbled Upon. Oh computers, how you frustrate us.
