So, I came into the Computer Science building to make sure that my program will still work while I’m in the building and rediscovered how patchy the wireless network is.
After about 20 minutes of fiddling with my laptop, I got it to connect to the wireless network and ran my program. Which worked really well for all the 10 minutes I could stay connected. After that, no matter what I tried I couldn’t reconnect to the network. 
Bah.
An unprecedented 3 entries in one day!
This entry isn’t project related though, just an addition to the hate list.
Why isn’t there a spellcheck option in WordPress?
It’s one of those things that is really handy and useful. Plus, it makes entries nicer to read.
Perhaps I can find a plugin for it.
Adding wordpress plugins to the Hate List. Or at least my inability to get them to work!
Reading is so boring, but sadly it must be done! I don’t want to miss any of the good bits. If there are any in this book. Heh.
I have decided to start a hate list for all the things I come to hate either generally or because of my final year project.
This will either be healthy or crazy but amusing.
So, the first things on the hate list:
Programming - I… have always not liked programming. It’s not really a hate, it’s more dismay at lack of ability and OMG WHY WON’T IT WORK stab. Perhaps downgrade this one to the “a tad annoying” list.
Reading technical books - Not sure if this would be better if I didn’t have to do the third thing on the list.
Making notes on books - So annoying. What do I note? What do I miss out? What if I miss something important and I can never find it again. Oh the angst. Plus, making notes on intelligent agents isn’t nearly as funny as making notes on why Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein is a boring boring book.
Procrastination - How can it be bad if it feels so good? Well, if it stops me working on my stupid project. If only there was an anthropomorphic personification of procrastination that I could physically harm. Perhaps I have been reading too much Neil Gaiman.
Not having an mp3 player and getting into podcasts - Nothing to do with the project, but podcasting is a bit like blogging. I want to be able to go on the train and listen to my lovely, wonderful geeky podcasts without having to use my laptop to do it. There is much woe. This item of hate can be sorted out though, by the purchase of a cheapo mp3 player.
And that is the end of the hate list for today.
