about .5 mph, I let off the brakes at a stop light as the light just turned green...
JEEEEEEEEZ. That must have sucked. >_< I think I told you in my Altima my brake pad holder snapped off while releasing the brake right next to an Army Base, due to me not replacing worn brakes sooner.
I just had a pretty good day. Took the kiddos outside, sat in the grass and just analyzed the ***out of a poem. I got a lot of awesome stuff from two of the classes; the third one was afraid of sitting in grass, so they sat at tables and would NOT stop chatting.
Hah, Mag's posts about his classes reminds me of when my Calculus Teacher used to gush to my AP Calc class in high school about her other math classes <3
Teaching is exciting and fun for me. I can't help but brag about my students, especially when they do something awesome in class, like when the lightbulb goes off and they all get excited about what they learned. That ***makes my heart soar.
Ah damnit, I'll have to call NOVA tomorrow, trying to take calculus online over the summer, but I have to get them to transfer in my prereqs to qualify to take the class...
I have an Arduino, but if I wanted to have more options, that would be a thing to do.
I just can't program for ***, I need to find a few months and just sit down and fiddle with stuff, as I want to design boards, it would save me a lot of $/effort if I can program them myself, instead of trying to give somebody my spec, and have them do it for me.
I could always pay a consultant for when I have issues though.
I really need to spend more time on this, as it's one of my chosen career paths, and if I do decently enough I can just work from home.
meh, I'd say it's taken a pretty good foothold in it's intended market, it's meant for educational purposes, and I think it hit that off pretty well.
It wasn't meant to be a high end device.
that being said, I could probably use a spare laptop hard drive with mine, and a 7" screen I have somewhere and convert it into a little media player. I'll have to find all the parts though, I think I've gotten decent enough in linux now to give another whack at it, I hadn't really touched it at all the first time.
This is a thread that I found on another website I post at. It can be really really interesting. I thought it deserved a place here.
Post your random thoughts for the day here, or anything else that intrigues you.
For starters, is it possible to give constructive critism to someone who doesn't have a neck? I totally just walked by a girl who didn't. Someone isn't getting a necklace for Valentines day!
And who decided black and white can't be colors? I want to say a racist. I really do.
