That was a long week, I can tell you. Everyone seems to like self-help books. I see people in cafes reading them, and usually it’s something like The Secret or The Cosmic Ordering Service which appears to be a religion/mystical thing in disguise as advice. These never clicked with me, as a lot of them seem to revolve around… Continue reading book review: the subtle art of not giving a f*ck

So almost exactly last year I wrote here about starting over a new leaf, and I said that it was the perfect time to revive an old project: i.e. this blog. How did that work out?

Hello again blog… we really have to stop doing this as I should be updating you regularly. I mean, what’s the point of paying for a fancy domain name if we’re not going to do anything with you? So I’m back after a long hiatus, the last post before which I wrote a lot about… Continue reading building glfw 3 on ubuntu 13.10 (or how i learned to stop worrying and love the cmake file)

I could go back to political… Continue reading we’ve never been so alone
