Re: September\'s Bells and Schools Thread
 

I can't say I'm the biggest fan of coding, even though I'm decent at it, and I do get a fair bit of satisfaction out of things working. I'm happier coding as a means to an end rather than when coding is all I'm really doing.

Yeah, I'm in here alone, but it's not exactly creepy. It's just me alone it a quiet lab. There aren't any weird noises or weird people walking around.

All,

Bam! I'm finished with a first draft of my code. Now the debugging begins, which, of course, is the hard part. However, I'm feeling pretty good about having pulled off as much as I did in as little time as I did. Rather than continuing to work through tonight, I'm going to go home and pour myself some alcohol. I'll resume the late nights in lab tomorrow.

Borodog,

10k post yo?

I remember one time in my life I was doing like 14-16 hour days, and finding it hard to sleep, so I'd play doom for an hour or two (Doom had just come out, and it was the business!). But one day, I'm alone inthe building and walking down a corridor, and started imagining those big giant floating head things were about to come floating out of open doorways just ahread of me.

I was VERY tired.

Cut out the Doom after that.

Lots of people made Doom maps of their offices back in the day. That was just slightly before that kind of goof started being considered sociopathic and legally actionable.

I think you guys are having a longer September than me. For some reason, I'm already in October.

Re: September\'s Bells and Schools Thread
 

October, are you sure? My calender has yet to be flipped here. I'm going with September until somebody walks over and flips it.
