After not being hosed (okay, maybe I was extremely tired after the last week of straight coding) first semester, I started planning out my IAP and came up with the following list of things to do:
- Learn 18.03
- Pokerbots
- TA 6.096
- Case mod the Quicksilver Power Mac G4 I found
- Direct USACO Feb11
- Pongmegrenades
- Port Pongmegrenades to Android, i.e. figure out drag and drop, besides other things
- Build an audio input/output switcher
- Speed up the raytracer
- Add some more shortcuts and features to EvilWM
- Facebook Hacker Cup
- Techfair chores, etc.
- …and possibly a bit of bridge
However, I soon found out that I was squeezed for time. I immediately came back to my list and scratched off a bunch of things:
- Learn 18.03: I'm almost there! Just 1/5 of the material left…chug chug chug choo choo!
- Pokerbots: I'm not exactly obligated to do it, but it seems worth it.
- TA 6.096: I'm obligated to do this.
- Case mod the Quicksilver Power Mac G4 I found: I went to Home Depot to buy plexiglass and cut out the old IO port sections…does that count as nontrivial progress? Dremelling was fun (and very sparky) though =D
- Direct USACO Feb11: Not an obligation, but it'd be cool to contribute to each of the monthly contests =D
- Pongmegrenades: I got sound to work (by virtue of copy & pasting code…does that count?
Port Pongmegrenades to Android, i.e. figure out drag and drop, besides other things: Not enough time T_T
Build an audio input/output switcher: The bus switch that engadget mentioned on its AV switcher is no longer stocked by DigiKey :( I got all the other parts from MITERS, though.
Speed up the raytracer: Uhhh about that…
Add some more shortcuts and features to EvilWM: About that too…
- Facebook Hacker Cup: Dunno if Facebook will get its act together
- Techfair chores, etc.: I'm obligated to do this.
- …and possibly a bit of bridge: Bridge? Uhh…do I still know how to play?
