The one thing I love about being human is that I can change what | |
I don't like about me. Most of the time... | |

You know you are doing it wrong when you have to override an | |
overriding method in order to avoid the inheritance from | |
class A in Class B, which in turn inherits from Class C... | |

Multiple inheritance... I hate multiple inheritance... | |
It is like commiting a crime: You may get away with it for | |
some time but sooner or later, the invoice will be in the mail. | |

Q. How can you manually create a random string of characters? | |

Start capturing their keystrokes... | |

Don't you just hate it when you are visiting a page, click on a | |
reference link, and are taken away to some other site with the | |
original web site nowhere to be seen? It's like shooting their | |
own foot. How difficult is for web designers to add a | |
target="_blank" to their links???? (Does not apply for gopher. | |
It doesn't have such function... yet. Then again, you can just | |
right-click on it... XD ) | |

June/23 1840AEST | |
Q. When do you use i.e., and when do you use e.g.? | |
A. i.e. = id est (That is, in English). Used in place of | |
"in other words," or "it/that is". It specifies or makes | |
more clear. | |
E.g. = exempli gratia (For the sake of an example, in English) | |
used in expressions similar to "including", when you are not | |
intending to list everything that is being discussed. | |

When we jumped into Sicily, the units became separated, and I | |
couldn't find anyone. Eventually I stumbled across two colonels, | |
a major, three captains, two lieutenants, and one rifleman, and | |
we secured the bridge. Never in the history of war have so few | |
been led by so many. | |

If you want to get rich from writing, write the sort of things | |

The bone-chilling scream split the warm summer night in two, the | |
first half being before the scream when it was fairly balmy and | |
calm and pleasant, the second half still balmy and quite pleasant | |
for those who hadn't heard the scream at all, but not calm or balmy | |
or even very nice for those who did hear the scream, discounting | |
the little period of time during the actual scream itself when your | |
ears might have been hearing it but your brain wasn't reacting yet | |
to let you know. | |

June/12 1701AEST | |
Steady movement is more important than speed, much of the time. | |
So long as there is a regular progression of stimuli to get your | |
mental hooks into, there is room for lateral movement. Once this | |
begins, its rate is a matter of discretion. | |

OK. That does it. Pet peeve of the day: People that chew their food | |

"I wonder", he said to himself, "what's in a book while it's closed. | |
Oh, I know it's full of letters printed on paper, but all the same, | |
something must be happening, because as soon as I open it, there's a | |
whole story with people I don't know yet and all kinds of adventures | |
and battles." | |

And one hour back! As a side note, the assignment wasn't that bad. | |
I actually enjoyed it... maybe a little too much. I ended up | |
refactoring the Java version to a Python one. Crazy me... o_O | |

It has been over a month since the last time I posted something | |
here, I know. Too many things going on too fast in my life. I'm | |
actually fed up with all the bullshit that social media posts these | |
days, so I did what any person willing to keep their sanity would do: | |
Remove themselves from it for some time. | |
I have also been working on my (professional-like) site, if you want | |
to check it out, it's at itaustraliagroup.com. As for the personal | |
one, I will be setting it up at lherrera.sdf.org soon-ish, hehe. | |
