Hi, I'm new here and I was wondering if this is still on hold?

ya it's on permanent hold, can't do it anymore.. sorry man.

you can still receive alot of good feedback by starting a journal and including that questionnaire. the questionnaire helps people diagnose your situation faster and more effectively.

im such a dickhead, been meaning to reply to this for a week now.

that hickson dunk @ 255 was kind of nutty, he's enormous and that was a short runup.

finally decided to get audio/video working on my freebsd system, that took a while.. nice now i can watch vids.. currently listening to nprlive radio stream with xmms, boss.

ran with my dog tonight, felt like i was going to pass out because of staph 'outbreak' #124091240.. ive been holding off on using my bactroban, going to see if my body can fight it naturally.. ive had so many outbreaks since that initial staph infection, it's beyond annoying.

had to kill a tick on my dog today, that was scary.

i lost alot of love for bradley when he ducked khan..

martinez is definitely p4p until proven otherwise.. klitchko's are very underrated, sure they are boring but they basically destroyed the heavyweight division of boxing, that's pretty impressive. vladimir is definitely the better of the two, two bad he got lacerated vs lewis.

i think it says alot about the klitchko's that they basically made "heavyweights" avoid trying to become champion boxers.

anyway im happy for lamont peterson, but i want to see him win the rematch decisively.. i think he can... i like khan too though so it's hard rooting against him.. anyway, unfortunately the boxing world cares too much about losses.. it effects the fighters & promoters.

donaire is a beast, he could be top 5 on the p4p list..

marquez definitely cant be #2, mayweather just destroyed him, regardless of the weight differential.

imo it's

1. marquez
2. mayweather
3. pacquiao

even though i could see marquez being #3.

been just eating chicken for the most part, getting leaner again and feel pretty good.





my external HD , total piece of crap, is toasting on me.. western digital my passport.. i usually use this for running my vm's, i put the hard disks on it and virtualize from my mac.. but now i want to get a tower solely for running virtualbox etc... any ideas on computers? check this thread if you have a recommendation heh!@$@

so weird, using firefox on my dad's freebsd computer, after typing this huge response it just automatically reloaded the page before i hit submit, bam gone.

I am a computational biologist and sometimes freelance algorithm developer.  Basically a glorified statistician.   

really cool, must have some serious math skills.

ya, vim to be more exact this point.. ya screen + console providesextremely fast navigation.. splt screening is also very useful for coding in the top half & compiling in the bottom half, or issuing commands in the first half and tailing logs in the bottom half.. really helpful.


Studied math and chemistry in undergrad.  Statistics are def waaaay less fun than the math you learn about as an undergrad but it's a really good field if you wanna have a job.  Also a good thing to study if you wanna know how science and evidence works. 

What do you do that has you coding so much?

just unix kernel/fs/userland stuff, network/security stuff.. i'm mostly into how operating systems work & how the internet works (various protocols etc), that's what i've always been drawn to when it comes to programming etc.

If you want to have fun programming math problems check out http://projecteuler.net/.

It's a great site.  It starts off really easy, too save time best initially to use a scripting language like python.  The cool thing is after you solve each problem you get forum access to see everyone elses code.  There is always some people that write everything in x86 or haskell or some crazy one-liner in J or APL, and you get to look at peoples really interesting efficient code.  I have learned about as much on that site about coding math than I learned in 5 years of grad school.  Watch out though, they get exponentially hard.  I solved the first 50-100 problems in a couple weeks and then they started taking me weeks to solve each one and I had to quit to get work done. 

hah cool.. i dont like solving math problems actually, my math background is horrible.. i always tested "gifted" in math growing up, but the public schools i went to were horrible and eventually all i cared about was basketball, pretty sad really. when i graduated high school, the most advanced class i took was geometry, with elementary level algebra classes.. had to take tons of math in college, stopped at calc 3/diff eq's. so my math background is pretty horrid. :)

Finally, watch out for the Mac.  I had a mac laptop and the mac terminal is set up ALMOST like the unix standards.  However, if you write a lot of shell scripts or awk scripts you will invariably write something in linux that isn't portable to your mac.  Really annoying but they follow the POSIX standard about 99% of the time and then the 1% of the time ruins you.

ya i don't get why so many companies/software dev'rs break posix/C99 etc, especially in this day and age.. at least *nix's are much more along standard lines than microsoft, who just reinvents and breaks everything.. hah

pc man








Ah, got me there todday, when i say vi i refer to vim, we even have them aliased on our machines, to open vim u type vi :D


i installed vim on my freebsd box yesterday, using pkg's.. i got some message talking about set nomodeline in ~/.vimrc because of trojan'd "text files", wtf? never heard of that.. didnt google it yet but that sounds very weird hah.








oh ya btw t0ddday you must have been talking about ed not vi.. vi can use arrow keys, ed is 1 line input editor etc.. if arrows keys are broke with vi, it would have to be terminal settings.. it's happened to me before.

GNU Screen is probably the worlds greatest program.  Eliminates the need for so much other stuff that has tons of overhead like dropbox and virtual desktops.  Screen is so easy, I might even run it on my phone so I can check jobs I submit to the cluster.

From 1996?  Damn I didn't know you could use computers for anything interesting till I started grad school.  Really old school.  Is that VI days?  That's the most difficult editor of all time.


ya, vim to be more exact this point.. ya screen + console providesextremely fast navigation.. splt screening is also very useful for coding in the top half & compiling in the bottom half, or issuing commands in the first half and tailing logs in the bottom half.. really helpful.





Don't underestimate vi. It may be the most difficult editor ever indeed , takes so much time to learn it and get used to it , but it may also be the most powerful one. Once you get used to the basic features to do your job , you start learning more complicated features, macros etc. This builds up if you use it for work , new needs come up , new ways to cover them are discovered. In the end ( after using it at work for ~8 years ) i prefer vi over any high-tech editor, just personal opinion though.

another vi commando on adarq.org :D

yeah definitely.. you probably take advantage of it much more than i, i just use it for navigating text fast, matching up my {} ()'s when coding, and fast string replacement.

im actually a vi noob, i just dont have any demands which would make me use all of it's features hah.

Adarqui, so the lack of GUI is a matter of choice? Don't understand it. Install one of the most recent linux editions , like ubuntu. You get an easy and friendly gui , pnp for most devices , access to the basic stuff you need ( youtube , flash etc ) and when you get sick of gui just open a terminal , make it full screen, there you are :D

ya i've done it no purpose.. i retraced some of my steps, and something that had a big impact on me getting out of the coding/unix world was getting a laptop (macbook running osx) which has a gui of course.. ive realized it was a big distraction and helped to make me "bored" of coding etc.. the video world & code world may not mix so well. it's easy to just become a zombie now that stuff like youtube exist.

ya i could easily install X but i dont want too.. i had to install X for my dad though.. i just cant view videos yet on it.

the solution yuo gave me is how mac OSX works.. i began using osx mostly programming/researching etc.. then by the end (5 years later) i find myself watching people face plant, then commenting on videos all day, then watching dunk videos all day, and before you know it, im zombified.

;F


i did use gui alot today though.. installing virtualbox vm's, so i just set the X display to this computer, set them up, and now i can use VBoxHeadless to run the vm's and just ssh into them.

boss.
