Yesterday I finally achieved 100,000 credit on my 3 combined BOINC projects. If you have available computing time and power download the BOINC client and support a project that could find extraterrestrials with SETI@home or cure some human disease with Rosetta@home. I took my last final exam last Friday at SFSU. I am graduating with a BS degree in Accounting and a BS degree in Decision Sciences. Job outlook? Next month I plan to write an extensive review of my SFSU experience. No Mac OS X Leopard for me. I won’t be getting the new version of Mac OS X mainly due to the fact that I am still using an old Mac G4 (Quicksilver 2001). Even though I have a 1.2 Ghz G4 card installed the requirements are still on the minimum side. I don’t really [...] I have been using WordPress for awhile with the K2 theme and I would say that these two together make a powerful combination that is easy to use. I have not had any real problems that I did not cause myself from experimenting. Of course everyone should BACK-UP their websites in case of problems. The [...] I noticed a serious issue with the Jaiku badge that requires shockwave-flash. If the browser does not have the proper plugin the page rendering becomes extremely random. My sidebar was everywhere except on the right side. I removed the Jaiku badge from the previous post due to this problem. If the browser does not have [...] Another semester dealing with a lack of sleep. Keeping busy teachs you to be very well organized and to plan ahead. Time management is one cure for sleep deprivation. This will only work if there is actual time that can be utilized more efficiently. With work, commute, and school there is very limited time left [...] Google acquired Jaiku last Tuesday Oct. 9th. This is definitely a good thing. Google Q&A Although I believe Jaiku has a better format and function than Twitter, I still don’t see the extended purpose beyond a fad. Posting multiple times a day is just plain stupid. Who cares when someone eats or sleeps? This can [...] I finally completed over 50,000 BOINC work units. Not bad when 80% of that is done on a 6 year old Mac G4. My next goal is to get under 100k on total world postion – currently 120k. Also get all 3 of the projects I participate in over 20k. [...] I have been commuting to SFSU and work in Mountain View, CA using my secondary BMW. A 1982 R100RS that was owned by my father, but he no longer rides. The bike needs some work but seems to run well, so far. Since my schedule and finances are limited while I am attending school, [...] My TR3A has been in storage for the past four years. I recently decided to get off my lazy butt and re-activate my classic British sports car. It still needs a replacement fuel pump. So far I’m working on the basics, cleaning and polishing the body, changing fluids, etc. My goal is to [...] |
