Hey all. Well I'm officially back in school. No more making the big bucks for me. What do I get for my troubles? a $30+K tuition, and staying up until 4am doing homework on the second week of school. Lovely. Anyway, I'm very pleased the message boards are doing so well, that's awesome. If you haven't been there yet/in a while, you should check them out, they're very active. The two new sections seem to be doing well, which I'm happy about, and we'll continue working on them. We have even more new stuff for ya'll on the way. So I'm taking a class where I get to play with Legos. Computer Science 445: Introduction to Robotics. We build robots with legos, and stick a processor, some memory and a chip in there, and program it to be semi-autonomous. The robot has to be able to accomplish a task without user intervention. There is a big competition at the end of each semester, last semester the robots were put in a field, they had to find balls on the field, take them back to the goal, avoid obstacles, and span as much area as possible to find the balls. The robot to get the most balls won. No remote control, no human intervnetion. Kick ass!! We got a whopin' 250 thousand hits in August. That's pretty damn cool. Thanks guys!! What else is new? I think that's about it. |
