Skulle hatt ein fri Georgia-liknande sak. Fin skrift. Likar henne betre enn Helvetica i denne blåggen.

C++ books (learn it-books, not big library references) usually don’t cover complex numbers. Understandable because I expect you don’t really need them when you write a word processor, but also very annoying, since I, a student of the glorious natural sciences, do need them, and generally prefer to use them even if I don’t have to.
Take the Mandelbrot set, which I’ve discussed earlier. So simple in complex notation. So clumsy in real notation.
Z0 = 0
Zn+1 = Zn2 + c
The Mandelbrot set is the set of those points c in the complex plane where Z∞ does not tend towards infinity.
So simple and natural in Python and Matlab. But there is hope. More typing, of course, than in that sensible language, but there are, indeed, complex numbers in C++.
Done some fairly random recategorization of the entries. Of rather limited value until I actually show you the categories, but I’ve read the webcomics and e-mails, so the alternative would be to work.
Nkf. Harddisken til magnetfelt har visst bestemt seg for å døy. Faen til opplegg.
Sånn. Med absolutte lenkjer burde RSS-straumen fungera med bilete slik at Blogroll vil visa dei. Teit opplegg, men gidd ikkje fiksa noko betre no.
Tek med eit bilete frå i går, slik at eg får testa. Det er eit av dei betre.
For at dette skal sjå bra ut må det vera såpass med tekst mellom bileta at ikkje det fyrste stikk ned i plassen til det andre. Då vert det opne luker, og det er ikkje fint. Kunne kanskje mekka noko betre enn float: right; for å få bileta til å sjå brukbare ut, men det gidd eg ikkje finna ut av no. I staden for å gjera noko nyttig, trur eg eg skal sparka litt i Movable Type-kjeldekoden slik at eg kan få auka breidda på redigeringsvindauget til noko leveleg. Eg meiner, dette er berre teit. Ikkje det at eg kan Perl. Det kan eg ikkje.
Changed the RSS feed, so it should now give complete entries, not just the 42 first words. Bloglines hasn’t noticed, though. It probably doesn’t re-read files referenced in the RSS.
This entry is for feedback about the log. Add yer comments, I’ll read and consider.
Well, this template thingy wasn’t as magical as I had imagined. But maybe I’ll bother to sit down and figure it out one day. And then I’ll figure out how to get a 24-hour clock and Monday-Sunday calendar too. Right now I want to go to sleep, but I should go work a bit on my studies instead. Then tonight after a beer or two at the spontaneous party not planned arond seven tonight, I’ll roll back home and move some more of my stuff around.
