Google Chrome is Awesome

Hmm, it seems like I'm betraying Firefox, and Google is too. Google Chrome, their new browser, is AWESOME. In fact, I used Chrome to update this blog posting. Its really ergonomic. No annoying title bar or anything else to clutter the screen, just a clean, streamlined interface.



Get it here and give it a shot.

In other news, school has started for me. Time to prepare for a year of work.

My exam results were great. Eight distinctions for the following subjects: Bio,Mathematics,Chemistry,Physics,English Language,English Literature,Infotech and Spanish. I got a B for GCE Add Maths. Thanks to all my well wishers.

Thats about all I have to say for this update.

See ya people,
Gavin.

Car Sickness

Well, I've just made my way across the island and back. Believe it or not. Ugh. I slept in the back of the car for the whole journey.It is 3:32 pm as I write this. I left home at 5:30 AM and returned by like 2:30. For the non-mathematically inclined, thats 9 hours exactly.

Thank God I took a quick snooze on the return journey.

Here's your promised Evangelion Episode. This is Episode 2:

Dancing in My Own Blood

No, this post has nothing to do with the title. In fact, this post is actually a programming post.

You see, yesterday, I finished LunaLib's basic math routines. Yup, you heard that right. Matrix multiplication, matrix inversion, vector cross products, basic point in polygon tests, EVERYTHING!!!

So now, I have to work on LunaScene, which I have a gut feeling I forgot to mention. LunaScene is a scenegraph with a built in physics engine, which as you all might guess, needs more work. Advanced collision detection, collision response, etc... I have my work cut out for me. But still, it's going to actually be fun.

After I finish LunaScene and have a working demo, I'll probably work on optimization of LunaLib.

I'm going to have hell learning all the physics I need. But still, no knowledge is useless. It might come in handy if I ever drop out of school and decide to make nuclear bombs for a living. lol.


Now, in a completely unrelated side note, look at this. I almost pissed myself. You will too.



See how easy it is to go to jail now, Clive?

Still...they do say, if you dress like you want it, you're gonna get it.

The studying for mock exams is coming along great though. I feel really energized as of late. I guess Pepsi really is addictive, because I've been taking it in by the gallon to stay awake. Lets hope all this pays off in the long run.

Later peeps!
