So . . .

Damn straight you don’t speak for me son! Heh I just wanted to say that. So, now we all know why James writes here, and I can say that I don’t think I fall quite within the same parameters. I don’t necessarily feel that I need practice writing, though it definitely does not hurt at all. I think for me it forces me to think about stuff that I would not necessarily ponder otherwise, or at least think about them at a deeper level. However, that still leaves me with another problem.

I don’t really think this blog is useful, at all, for anyone other than James and me. At least in terms of me, I know I am not making any amazing headways in computer science, or awesome new finds in solving problems. I am just not that sort of person. The main reason this blog started was for James and me to be able to document our process while we were designing simple games in school, and hopefully one day part of that will return. I know that right now I am often not in the mood to do much of any project in any way involved with computers (not counting playing games). But that will probably change in the future when I am not so frazzled and mentally strained from being at work.

But back to the main point of that last paragraph, I don’t believe that anyone else can take anything away from this. That might not be true, and will hopefully change as James and I get more experience in the computer world, and actually start to solve complex and meaningful problems. But in the short term, James, I will be happy to criticize your writing (just kidding, it’s not nearly as monotone as your voice).

In other news, I have solved four ¬– count them, FOUR problems from the Euler site. Go me! And I didn’t use any silly super math-y shit either. I brute forced those fuckers in Java, how much more could I be wasteful? Probably not that much.
