On October 8th, Professor Baird gave a lecture entitled “Enigmatic Gay Genius,” about Alan Turing, the eminent war-era Mathematician and (what would now be called) Computer Scientist. The lecture was a joint venture of both the Department of Computer Science and Engineering and the on-campus LGBTQIA group. The lecture favored a biographical tone over the [...]
I just ran a degree audit, and it looks like this thing is going to work out after all. In May, I will be walking away with a Bachelor of Science in Computer Engineering, and a Bachelor of Arts in Mathematics. In fact, it looks like I might be getting a Bachelor of Science in [...]
I just spent all day at the 2008 ACM Mid-Atlantic collegiate programming contest. Two Lehigh teams participated at the Eastern Pennsylvania competition held at Wilkes University. We put forth a Java language team, and a C language team (which I was in.) We left around sunrise and spent all day writing code and eating. Other [...]
Well, I went to Washington DC last weekend. I stayed with Hayley Mirek (friend from Oxford), at The George Washington University. I left after work on Friday, at about 6:00pm. Just as we got into Philadelphia, the bus driver took a narrow corner and side-swiped a parked car, causing it to move a substantial amount. [...]
Well, here we are again. Another blog from Jameson Williams. This blog breaks the standard naming convention; indeed, we see that this iteration of “Blogtronix” comes not from Austin, TX, but rather from Bethlehem, PA. Consult a map.
Back at Lehigh
So, I’ve been back at Lehigh for a week now. I am taking the following classes [...]
If you need to set up a printer on Windows or Mac OS X, you can just go to lehigh.edu/printers and run one of the VisualBasic or applescript scripts, respectively. Here are instructions for Linux. And immediately below is a rant on why you printers are lame.
And you thought CD-ROMs and traditional disk drives were [...]
I tried for a few days to get Lehigh’s 8021X authentication to work with my wireless setup, but the wireless network kept disassociating before the handshake finished. I asked around and a bunch of people said that Ashutosh’s instructions worked perfectly. I tried them verbatim, except without ndiswrapper (yuck!) The Intel iwlwifi driver has been [...]
Bout time for a Blogpost, I’d say - wouldn’t you? Verily, it has been Δt > max({a0, a1, …, an}), given n blog readers and attention spans ai ∈ A, all attention spans. That having been said, I do not think that this blog has become so beyond reproach that a proper blogxpost couldn’t turn [...]
I walked around town and set up my room and changed some dollars to pounds. The city of Oxford is sort of a big deal. It’s really old and goodlooking. It is a few hundred metres to the Bodleain, where I plan to do much study. At the gate is a guard with a sign, [...]
So, how’s everyone doing tonight? Right on, man, right on. A blog:
Getting Into England
I got into London-Heathrow airport around 8:00am GMT last Wednesday. I then paid £18.00 for a taxi to St. Giles Hotel in Feltham.
“Feltham?! Not even Londoners go there!”
- Rebecca’s friend at East Anglia.
But what happened after that will not be covered yet. [...]
