Please read the disclaimer. This is the very first version of Pete's Log, which consisted of static HTML updated by hand. It lasted about a year before it was converted to a more dynamic php-based solution that lives on to this day.
My log of activities... mainly for my own use, so I can remember what i've taken care of, and what still needs taking care of. since i love putting files of this sort in html, i figured i'd add it to my webpage... teehee.
September 30, 1999 actually began work on the backend of the forth interpreter... woohoo!
September 29, 1999 spent most of this afternoon grading cse 232 tests... fun!
September 28, 1999 I think I'm gonna die. Way too tired... oh well. more oompi perf doc work, did various other stuff that i simply can't remember doing. in automata today, which is a 75 minute class, i started work on the automata homework. after 25 minutes of class i had finished the assignment. marty notices this and looks over and sez: "so what're you gonna do for the next 50 minutes?". realizing he had a valid point i got very depressed, for the lecture was boring.
September 27, 1999 discovered important lesson: numerical methods is much easier to do if i read the instructions correctly. had a good weekend of coding tho. September 25, 1999 redid the forth interpreter frontend in c++ using gtk--. it's shaping up well, much better interface and object orientedness is cool. must now watch star trek.
September 21, 1999 did more design work on ltfs. fixed more stray broken pages on the NDLUG site. will probably be playing this game for a while still..
September 20, 1999 Well, have done more lam work, broke the NDLUG web site for several hours, got it working again... ND is now 1-3 ... *sigh*
September 16, 1999 well, most of the gtk frontend for the forth interpreter is done. and it's multithreaded, too!
September 15, 1999 well, pgp.ndlug.nd.edu crashed hardk0re today. the disk that / was mounted on died. amazingly, the machine kept running, and since the pgp key server depended only on files in /usr/local, which was mounted on a separate disk, it continued to serve. of course, couldn't log in to the box at all. so found new hard drive for / and am reinstalling linux on that. *sigh*
September 14, 1999 began work on a forth interpreter for cse 431. gonna go all out and give it a gtk front end. woohoo!
September 12, 1999 mmm... sleep... and algorithms homework... and more running than i've done in weeks...
September 11, 1999 hrmmm... what the hell happened to the irish today? argh. now we're one and two. oh well. coded more php3 for www.ndlug.nd.edu and got a postcard signed by several ndlug members to send to rasmus at php.net.
September 10, 1999 got a sparcstation 1 (mmm... old, slow sun hardware) running linux. got ssh to run after major overhauls of the makefile. got pksd to compile. it is now ndlug's pgp key server. fun fun fun.
September 9, 1999 well, the world didn't blow up, surprisingly enough. but i did get the r00t password to my "new" aix box. fun fun fun.
September 5, 1999 LTFS work is progressing. I've gotten the whole dlopen thing working, which is sweet. Deadline for having all my data structures figured out is thursday. i think i can do that...
September 2, 1999 first night of cse232 lab hours. went well. homework they have due tomorrow is easy tho. having all sorts of silly problems with the dlopen stuff, not because i can't do the dlopen stuff and such, but because i'm having all sorts of problems with snprintf... i suck sometimes...
