Advice for unemployed Comp Sci Grads

http://www.clearps.com/tjr/computing/advice-for-cs

So I read this, and do almost everything on the list, but did pick up some ideas. Like: doing some free programming for non-profit organizations. That would be some experience I can at least put on my resume. I also like the idea of joining/starting a open source project. I should also buy a book on software testing, I have one for Visual C++, but I should get a broader more logic based one.

Everyone's eys are wired differently.

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/10239783/

"The first images ever made of retinas in living people reveal surprising variation from one person to the next. Yet somehow our perceptions don't vary as might be expected."

This is cool. Back in high school a concept was brought up about how people might precieve the world differently to other people, based on what they see. Sure they might recognize the same color, but to what effect. Maybe someone see the world in more of a shade of red, but is used to it, and this is normal to them, while, someone else would see in more of a green color. From day one we learn what is normal, but how do we know what someone else sees isn't slight off in color or hue.

Paint roofs white will reduce global warming???

"Painting all roofs white could nudge the Earth's albedo from 0.29 towards 0.30."

Interesting, hmmmmm.

Yet Another List of IP TV Shows

Helping Teach a computer common knowledge.

http://commonsense.media.mit.edu/cgi-bin/process_frame.cgi?form_type=WhatElseShouldIKnow

A MIT project teaching a program to know common sense. I have tried to enter some info, but there seems to be a server error at this time. An example of this works is:

You're given a statement. Try to write 5 common sense information, to be given to the program.

For example: Bob bought some milk.

Some things that a person should know include:

Bob probably used money to buy the milk
Milk is a kind of food
Bob probably bought the milk at a store

Elmira Rap Video????

Ok, I was talking to Seth Alexanderson today, and he mention that there was this awful rap video about elmira or something. I googled it and found this site: http://media.putfile.com/elmirawhereuat2. I can't watch it right now because of the HD crash and running linux. By the comments it seems bad. Of course, who would rap about elmira anyway??? It isn't hardcore, maybe poor, but nothing like NYC and LA would be. I can't wait to see this video.

Damn computer

Well, I recently got back on aim and talked to Venk and Keith after a long while. I downnload and started praticing some JSP, Tomcat server, ANT, Springwork, etc.. via Venks suggestion. Got it working, but now the hard drive in this computer is dead. Thanks to Knoppix I don't need that peace of shit to get internet access.

Talked to Keith, and the usual SUNY-IT drama. Nothing new there.

Still can't find a job, heck I can't even get a call-back for an interview. WTF?!?!?!?! I might as well give up and try a retail store or something, but wait even they don't bother to hire me. I guess becoming a professional bum is the best I'm good at.

How come when I'm moving to a new state, I get offers from the state I was just in?? Is there some cruel joke being played on me. It sucks being depressed, and not having a job, but to have no one call you for an interview is just more kicks to a man when he is down.

I guess I'll go now and watch TV and drown my sorrow in the beautiful light of my T.V. :\

Criminal Domestic Violence by using cheese???

http://www.thestate.com/mld/thestate/news/local/13161601.htm

This is stupid, that man is wanted for domestic abuse for spraying cheese in his wife's hair, after she sprayed cheese on his car.

"ALLEGED CRIME: Police said Higginbotham argued with his wife because she had not cooked anything. When she began cooking, he started making spaghetti while eating crackers and squeeze cheese. They argued, and he squeezed cheese on the kitchen floor. She squeezed the cheese on his truck, and he squeezed the cheese in her hair before fleeing in his truck. His wife said she washed her hair before the officer arrived to take her complaint."

A fast moving star

http://www.eurekalert.org/pub_releases/2005-11/eso-sot110905.php

"Using ESO’s Very Large Telescope, astronomers have recorded a massive star moving at more than 2.6 million kilometres per hour."

This is interesting. Just imagine, the mass and velocity of that sun. Talk about huge momentum.
