I’m going over what I hope is a fool proof development install procedure for a large project. I need to include specific versions of gcc, and I think it might be nice to run the gcc tests, since all of this is automated anyway. Which brought me to expect. Sounds like I would do well to know this tool, and possibly it will be useful in the testing of the very project I’m working on.

While writing up the plan I have been assuming we would use svn. I really like svn, but it may be that git is better suited as one of the difficult constraints I have is supporting development on air gapped machines. One comparison note appears here. A long paper on Distributed (git) vs. Centralized (svn) development appears here.

It’s been mentioned elsewhere, but I will mention it here. Java needs const; and it should work just like it does in C++. Some people will tell you that final suffices, but it does not.

Look into where I should complain.

David Tribble has a complete exposition on what const should look like in Java here.

I keep thinking about Naur’s presentation, as well as Leonid Perlovsky’s course on neural networks and intellect. I may not be able to get a computer to think for itself, but I may be able to get a computer to help me focus on what I am thinking about. In some ways Google does something similar, but it is not very far beyond simple word association.

I miss San Fransisco very much. Second to my good friends, I miss the best restaurant choices I’ve every encountered.

My friends Timothy and Peter just opened up a new place in the Mission.

It is getting excellent reviews and I can not wait to get back, visit, and eat.

The Julie Amero case bothers me, and makes me wonder what can we do to incorporate better science into our legal system. It is quite possible, even likely from what I’ve read about the case, that the Windows 98 computer she had in the class room was infected long before she showed up.
