The art of holding a CPU.

Today at first, my friend ponnappan AKA Sharat and me brought down the CPU, keyboard, mouse, power cable and  the projector, UPS, respectively, to class. (Feel free to comment on my unusual sentence constructions). He managed to hold onto the CPU as one holds on to their dear life sometimes..

After its use, me and one of my other friends, Manu, decided to put it back. On the way. he wasn’t much impressed by the construction of the CPU… He said, “How do you hold this stupid thing??”. I replied, “Dude, blog about ‘the art of holding a CPU'”.

I do hope he does that because some nutcases really need to have some practicality shoved into their cerebellums or whatever… (I stopped Bio from my tenth grade). It really was a horrible design and completely un-hold-able!!!!

Procrastination.

Having GSoC to spend time on, having LR(1) parser table filling algorithm to study to take seminar on , having ES and DBMS assignments to write, having my mini project in front of me, I’m having fun with my blog!!!! Guys, don’t go for the definition of procrastination to Oxford diary. Just come over here.:D But I must say it is much more fun than having a facebook or orkut account.:)

Guide not happy.

Since I gave the GloMoSim back to the guy who gave it to me, he was not happy. Now I don’t know what our project’s future is going to be. But to go with what you love is better than to go with something you have to force yourself to like. And also, even he hasn’t got much idea about it. So if we get stuck somewhere in the middle, that’s it.

Anyway, we did submit our abstract yesterday. A short one. I need to do more research on it. I’m not able to answer to his questions well enough. So I’m on it.

Everything that “glo’s” is not gold.

They haven’t actually even released a glomosim package for debian or ubuntu. I downloaded the one for redhat linux 7.2 and tried crooked ways of installing it. Like copying the executables such as pcc and parsecc into /usr/bin. But there was something wrong with the PCC_DIRECTORY environmental variable and I couldn’t run the make command within the glomosim directory. I’ve decided to do what I like and go for the web application. Thank you!!!
