I was working on some code last week, just for the sake of learning. The program takes a sentence and reverses each word within the sentence. Eg: "This is a test" becomes "sihT si a tset". I originally tried passing variables to functions, back and forth, but I eventually realised such operations were beyond my limited skills. The code is behind ( Read more... )

I've been waking up at ludicrously early hours lately. We're talking around 4am. It's not like I'm getting to bed at 8pm or anything, it's been more like midnight, 11pm at the earliest. So with no more than 5 hours of broken sleep every night this week, I can only come to one conclusion - medication. I'm on Prednisolone again, which has a nasty ( Read more... )

Nicked this from ozbrat, although I've seen it on a few friend's pages lately...

I haven't posted anything non-election for 8 days. As you all know, I posted an election-related poll last night. Politics is one of the 3 subjects capable of dividing people, forging enemies and even weakening friendships.

I've been seeing a LOT of election posts in my flist lately, so despite voting is over in our East and nearing its end in our West (now 7:25pm AEST), I thought I'd pose a question.

They are the ones who talk about other people and either come out and name them by real or LJ name, or strongly indicate who people are, without leaving one to guess. Even the "insane" ones are highly appreciated (you know who you are ( Read more... )

OK, I'll cut it, coz I think there's maybe one or two people on my flist who would understand and/or appreciate it!

( Coz I'm just so geeky... )

I haven't posted in over two weeks. Not that my life has been completely uneventful in that time - I just haven't been bothered putting some words together, that's all. Some cuts for your convenience...

Probably coz I'm certainly no poet! Anyway, I found this in curecrohns a few days ago, posted by swinterh. I've left the main poem totally unedited, and have only changed the title by applying some bold and centring. This poem could have been written about me. It wasn't, but it SO could have been. Thank you to swinterh for posting this! I wanted to share it with my LJ ( Read more... )

Cuts are cool...
