Summer 2011 – Week #5 Review

Posted on Sunday, June 19th, 2011 at 02:01

Okay, so I’ve been settling in for the last week, and a brief recap:

Started work: somehow ended up doing computer vision, which I probably won’t touch after next week
Found a place to live that is not a couch
Tried Xmonad, the amazing tiling window manager
Failed to hit up Noisebridge, or the San Francisco Symphony
Did run around San Francisco like a chicken with it’s head cut off

Note: I really hate looking for housing, but not so much I’m willing to spend twice as much to just rent a hotel room. That’s just plain silly.

And I was wrong about the projects thing: now that I’m not spending every single night going out and trying to find a room to live in, now I might be able to finish something. Probably hardware-related, because my motivation to write code has dropped due to work.

The “head cut off” reference is because I walked all over San Francisco, because there was a street game of epic proportions. Now excuse me while I nurse my poor legs.
