It's been another long time at a desk blasting music as loud as I think it's possible to blast in my room. Saturn is really forcing me to look at things in a design pattern way. I never thought half of those things I learned in the three of my design patterns books really mattered. Now I think i'm beginning to see. I dunno, but the more and more I look at this, the more and more it looks long and winded. Plus how I design something now might dictate really bad, or really good decisions later.
Finally got around to redesigning that horrid gui from Zempt. The text on the inside of that TextView is all just a mock up for now.
UML diagrams using Dia, oh what fun!!
I'm definitely learning alot, but I feel like i'm not moving fast enough but at the same time if I move too fast I could make a hasty decision. It's such an internal tug-o-war that makes me just want to leave it all on the table and goto bed! On an entirely different note, I finally got my laptop to properly suspend and standby in NLD (read: Novell Linux Desktop), I also got the wireless card to work! I initially started with the
linuxant wlan driver stuff, but when I updated to a newer development kernel that has the inotify patch in it, it didn't work!! So I just resorted to my Slackware ways downloaded the
ipw2200 driver and compiled the drivers. I'm SO glad I've been using slackware.Time for a nap then work. :-)
