Its on its way. Its all offline still but I have the HTML and CSS done and now I’m working on the scripting. Then I can just type my new post in word, convert it to html with a converter and upload it and the website will automatically update. It’ll be good. I think it will be called Negative Logic. Works good so far.
Anyway. That’s all.
I want to take blogging seriously. Not on this site. Its too restrictive and boring. But I may use it to vent about ideas.
I want to get a blog setup to write my notes from class on next year and my thoughts on things that are happening. Readers could follow my progress through the program and the ones that stay through it all can see how I do in the ‘real world’. It’ll be a fun project. It’d be nice to get some ad revenue trickling in too. I don’t want to be a John Chow but if it could help pay for my college that would be great.
Anyway. That’s my new goal. I spent all this time trying to figure out what I wanted to make my website do and came up with a blog. How original 
. I’ll probably toss up some recordings and stuff like that too when I get time to write songs. And I’ll link my youtube account (which I have to make) to my site to download the songs/videos. It’ll be fun.
Anyway (again). I’m out for now. I’ll probably start designing it tonight.
God bless.
New stuff is cool. I got new shoes yesterday. And new pens. And a new game that I’m in love with. Now, the game is kind of old (a couple years) but its good. Especially since it was only $5!! Godfather the Game. Its really well made. Its like GTA only better because its not just a button masher during fights. You actually use your mouse to fight. And you have a pressure shopkeeps to pay the Corleone family a weekly fee for protection. And you have to buy out racketeering businesses and steal business from the four rival families. And then you have missions on top of that. I’ve enjoyed it and I just got it yesterday.
I’ve decided to change my attention from C to HTML (which I know a bit in already, CSS (which I also know about), PHP (I’m learning it now) and MySQL (having looked at yet). The reason is because I don’t use C until second year but I do do HTML and web development in first semester of the first year so I want to be ahead of the game. Also, I want to get a website up and running so I can get some ad revenue flowing for next year. It’ll be nice to get a site going that caters to a lot of people. I’ll just have to get my page rank up and have a GREAT website to keep people’s attention.
That’s my plan. Hopefully it pans out.
God bless 
I’m a terrible person. I’m so blessed and gifted but I’m also incredibly lazy. I’m good at understanding math. I’m good at reading and writing. I’m good at art. I’m good at music. I’m good with computers. I’m social with people I know. I’m so well rounded but I am really lethargic so I don’t do anything with it. I could do ANYTHING (and not just because my mom said so). But I don’t. I’m a real ass.
I sold my Macbook yesterday. The monitor was cracked from New Years and I needed a laptop. I sold it to a really cool guy in Kingston who was from Australia. He bought it for $400 so he could install it in his car. Pretty neat haha.
Anyway. I went and bought this :
Its got really good specs for the price and runs really smoothly. Even with Vista I haven’t had any problems at all except Call of Duty not responding to my keyboard (you can’t move) but I’m going to be putting XP on it for games anyway. I don’t want to be a Windows user more than I have to be though so I’m going to try to find a cracked Leopard disc online to install. Its hard to find one for AMD though.
Anyway. That’s whats new.
God bless.
If I’m created in the image of God does that give me permission to build my own universe? If I can program a Universe and have taken into account every possibility am I living up to that title of being created in His image? The more I think about programming and God and the world the more I want to make a perfect simulation. I keep thinking about things I can incorporate and I know I could pseudo code it but I doubt that for a while I’ll be able to actually code it (due to restrictions within computers). But who knows.
One thing I can’t figure out is how to program freewill. Intellegence is easy because its just memory. Personality is a tad trickier but it can be done. But how do you program free will? That’s one thing that escapes me.
I also don’t know how to go about the UI aspect of it. My universe will probably just be text based but very in depth. Like to the atomic level. I’ll be starting with atoms inside time and working upwards to individual cells and the laws of physics. I’ll keep posting.
Like really gross. Look at yours. Its probably gross. The crap in the keys. Blah.
I want my rubber keyboard. I don’t know why I don’t bring it to work. its clean. This one’s far from it.
Guess what! We’re all programs. I’ve decided and I’m sure of it. The human DNA takes up 3 GB of space and is essentially written in binary. Its made up of 4 amino acids which can only be paired specifically, meaning only 2 combinations. This is just like binary with its 1s and 0s. So that means that the whole DNA of a human could be said to be a program written in binary. That’s really cool. I’ll post more thoughts on the subject as they come.
1 - first and foremost I want to learn C programming. I’ve spent a lot of time up until now learning Java and at my peak I was very capable with it. I’ve since lost a lot of the abilities I’ve had (especially related to GUI aspects and mouse events) but I’m sure I can get it back. But I want to learn its mother, C. C seems much more capable and much more advanced and anything UNIX related is going to be closely tied in with C so I want to learn it more in depth. I can do basic things with it (such as writing to the screen and calling functions, passing variables, having control statements etc.) but nothing too hard as of yet. I need to learn input still (it uses pointers which are still not committed to memory as of yet) and from there I’ll probably start playing with it at home. I’ll need to find some problems to solve otherwise I’ll get bored with it and won’t stretch my understanding of it. I’m on my way with C though so that’s good.
2 - I want to learn how to hack. Not the evil computer hacker that steals your files and money and identity type hacker. But the whitehat hacker that helps secure networks and servers and the such. I want to learn it because it forces me to learn a LOT of different aspects of computers all at once. There’s the networking aspect (like hiding your IP and redirecting internet traffic for Man in the Middle hacks and accessing files on a servers) and theres the Server Side aspect (like accessing files from hidden folders and learning SQL and PHP injection to get around things that are blocked) and theres the coding side of things (like attacks directly aimed at the OS and other software on the server to do things like buffer overflows and other cracks like that). It includes so much knowledge all in one task that I can’t possibly say no to learning it. I want to try to find someone with a network that will give me permission to try all the things I learn. I’m thinking I could setup my laptop as a server on my friend Rob’s home network (since I have Apache on my laptop already so its easiest that way) and use his computer or some other computer to try to access some files from my computer. It’d kind of be cheating because I’d already know the info location and everything on my machine but that could help because I would see how that is related to the information I find out with attacks. Plus that way I also have to learn how to hack through a router which is something I haven’t read up on yet.
Those are my two main goals right now and both are fairly huge. I’ll start to tackle them more consistently.
That’s all for now
First post in ages. Lots has happened. New Years Eve sucked and there’s ongoing ramifications from that. But I’ll post about other stuff.
1 - I might be buying a non-Mac laptop. I broke my Macbook and I need a new laptop and I found a decent HP for $900 that is a laptop/tablet and has a fingerprint scanner and a webcam and its 12 inches and a bigger HD then my laptop and its got an AMD chip. I like AMD . Of course I’d install OSX on it. It’ll just be hard to find a patched version of it lol
2 - I want to invest in AMD. They’re at their lowest in 3ish years and they just released the new Phenom chipset as well as some other mobile chips that seem to be promising. I fully expect them to climb from the $6 they’re at to about $20 (at least, but I’d likely pull out at $20-25 ish to be safe). That’d be a lot better than my 4% savings account. And right now I can assure you I’m in desperate need of money. Legal stuff, computer that I bought for my rents, computer to replace mine, money for college, money for loan for car. Its a big bill that I need to sort out. It’ll work out though. God’s on my side
3 - I’ve decided to give up on Java. Not entirely because I bought a huge book from value village about coding Java and Java applets so I’ll probably go through that. But I’m going to start focussing on C so I can learn pointers and buffers and anything else that’s cool and advanced. I want to be prepared for class next year, even though we don’t touch C til second year I don’t think. But I’ll definitely be able to work my way through C. I have 7 months to do it in and I know a lot of the concepts for Java, which are fairly similar to C syntax and concepts. Shouldn’t be too hard. I just need to not give up.
Anyway. That’s about it as far as non-relationship stuff goes. Things are looking up. And even if they’re not I say they are and I’ve been delegated authority from God so they are.
Yesterday I spent SIX HOURS searching for a code that would let me put code from another source in my website. I wanted to do this because then I could have my navbar and links placed in a folder and call them for each page. That way if I need to change them I change them once and every page would update. Also I wanted to have my news posts and blog posts to do the same thing.
BUT!
I got it! Now my site is entirely scripted with the exception of the main content (which I haven’t started yet anyway). Its worth the 6 hours.
Here’s the site if anyone wants it:
http://www.moock.org/webdesign/javascript/client-side-include/index.html
I knew that you could do Server Side Includes to do the job but I don’t have any server software. So finally I googled Client Side Includes and it was the first thing to come up haha.
Anyway. Hopefully I’ll have the site looking and functioning nice within the week and I’ll try to find a free host so you can all see what I’ve been doing. Its a pretty basic site but its really cool looking and works well for what I need it. I’ll likely change it later so that I can include some kind of service for people (I want to make money online since I can’t work next year in school lol)
