marcmagus: Me playing cribbage in regency attire (Default)
Thursday, March 13th, 2003 01:28 pm
I'm spending the week visiting my parents while they help me look at used cars. I've test driven a few things over the last few days, and we're scouring the online used listings to see if anything good turns up.

While I'm here, I have a lot of time to myself in the evenings. Fortunately, I've taken my complete and utter boredom, and turned it to somewhat productive uses. I've done a bunch of perl programming, which I haven't done in a while - some of you will probably be seeing one of the results soon.

Someone posted the Shakespearean Insult Generator on a BBS I read, and I was really bored last night, so I wrote a quick script which generated them all. Two seconds later, out popped a 3.6MB file containing all 125,000 insults the generator could generate. I have it if anybody wants it.

My wrist is aching from all the typing and desktop-switching while I was programming the other night. I should have taken the time to set myself up more ergonomically.

I also took a couple of quizzes... )
