Happy Coding of a Happy Code Monkey: November 2009
http://happycodemonkey.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
Happy Coding of a Happy Code Monkey. Wednesday, November 18, 2009. Thursday, November 12, 2009. The highlight of the conference was definitely Rod Collier, the guy who designed the Letterman Building here at Ball State. His presentation was both informative and interesting, his PowerPoint was amazing, and he gave some fantastic examples of innovative design in his own home (which he designed himself! Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm off to redesign my website again :). Primary observations of interest:.

Happy Coding of a Happy Code Monkey: September 2010
http://happycodemonkey.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
Happy Coding of a Happy Code Monkey. Saturday, September 25, 2010. Redesigns to Blow Your Mind. Since I last posted, I have become gainfully employed by a web development company and have been so for the past 8 months or so. Both the Master's degree and the move down here seems to have paid off even more so than I had any right to hope or expect. Always a good story. So, back to coding, and I hope to have a few functioning projects to write about soon. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile.

Happy Coding of a Happy Code Monkey: Book #2, In far more than a week
http://happycodemonkey.blogspot.com/2011/01/book-2-in-far-more-than-week.html
Happy Coding of a Happy Code Monkey. Friday, January 21, 2011. Book #2, In far more than a week. I finally finished my second book for my 52 book challenge, but only because it was a "GRAPHIC NOVEL" that was only about 80 pages. Ah well, at least I'm making up a little time. Still working on Stories. About 75% of the way through, but the going has been slow because it's very hard to find time to just sit and read, even though I'm finally starting to enjoy it as much as I did when I was a child.

Happy Coding of a Happy Code Monkey: October 2010

Happy Coding of a Happy Code Monkey. Wednesday, October 27, 2010. You know, most programmers are libertarian", my workmate stated. I know", I replied, attempting to imply in my tone of voice that I had met many of these abstract libertarian programmers my workmate spoke of. It's because they think, 'Hey, I can solve this problem myself, I don't need any help! Yeah, they're also massive assholes". Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Austin, Texas, United States.

Happy Coding of a Happy Code Monkey: Low-Level, Shmoe-Level
http://happycodemonkey.blogspot.com/2011/01/httpmikeos.html
Happy Coding of a Happy Code Monkey. Thursday, January 13, 2011. Http:/ mikeos.berlios.de/write-your-own-os.html. Yeah That's what I'm doing tonight. Because seriously. Low-level is one of my many weaknesses, so things like this really appeal to me. Along with this, I've been working on getting through How Not To Program in C. And Write Great Code. In parallel, and it has been a wonderful surprise how well the two books compliment each other. I was reading chunks of Write Great Code. Sneaky, Ninja C.

Happy Coding of a Happy Code Monkey: December 2009
http://happycodemonkey.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Happy Coding of a Happy Code Monkey. Monday, December 14, 2009. I came across this blog post. Via Hacker News tonight, and it gave me a little food for thought. I should know better, of course, than to just take stuff like this as gospel truth, but I hear it a lot from people like Jeff Atwood, who make their living talking about programming. To be a "good" programmer you need to be the kind of person who just loves it, and does it all the time. Saturday, December 12, 2009. Sunday, December 6, 2009. Probl...

Happy Coding of a Happy Code Monkey: Android Developing!
http://happycodemonkey.blogspot.com/2011/01/android-developing.html
Happy Coding of a Happy Code Monkey. Wednesday, January 19, 2011. Short post today, but I've started an Android project at work and I'm really enjoying working with the platform. I never bothered to approach it before, since I didn't have a smart phone at the time and I was never interested in general, but I wish I had started looking at it soon. It's very fun and rather intuitive, especially when using the Eclipse plug-in (me enjoying Eclipse? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.

Happy Coding of a Happy Code Monkey: Brussel Sprouts!
http://happycodemonkey.blogspot.com/2011/02/brussel-sprouts.html
Happy Coding of a Happy Code Monkey. Tuesday, February 22, 2011. This will be my first, and hopefully not only, blog post on food, because I love food and recently (thanks to my CSA box) my love of cooking has blossomed almost out of control. Tonight I undertook the heretofore impossible task of cooking edible brussel sprouts. Mostly because they came in the CSA box and I hate wasting perfectly good CSA veggies. Oh, and I had eaten on raw recently, and yeah. They're awesome. Yeah, that just happened.

Happy Coding of a Happy Code Monkey: June 2009
http://happycodemonkey.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Happy Coding of a Happy Code Monkey. Saturday, June 13, 2009. The other day I did a dd to my hard drive, and my Crunchbang install got completely wiped out. To the point where the computer refused to boot. The positive side to this story is that I had been thinking about migrating my netbook back over to Arch Linux. And the massive trashing gave me the perfect excuse to do this. So, I'm currently running Arch Linux with the slick tiling window manager Xmonad. The same one used in Crunchbang!
