Debating in progress

Hee... The motions are being released now. *wonders*

Improvement or not?

We just finished a debate on "The rights of the child are paramount", in which I did 2nd speaker for opposition and reply. It was fairly interesting and we lost, but at least I got some good feedback from everyone.

And I'm hungry.

Afternote: Had chicken wing rice for lunch, but it wasn't exactly cut very well...

The rest of the week...

I spent about half of the second debate checking moods and various other places, bad me. =P

And I've got to find out why I couldn't sync my PocketLJ entry today, resulting in this duplicate which I need to do something with.

On another note, watched The Matrix (original) today as sister borrowed VCD from friend. Two words: It rocks.

I'll be out tomorrow and probably offline, so you can call/SMS me if you need to/want to/are completely bored.

Something I found on salon.com

There's this article (related to a book) about debugging, and it's fairly interesting reading. So if I don't exactly reply to you online, you should know why. I hope. ^^;;

( About debugging )

( Of debuggers and humans )

The author speaks

Bugged out
"The Bug" author Ellen Ullman talks about the Gothic terrors that lurk between the rational lines of computer code.

( I can't reproduce it! )

( Why she wanted to write it )

I think the history of software engineering is trying to find a way to write reliable code and miserably failing, year after year. It wouldn't be a perennial topic in software engineering if anyone had any idea how to fix the problem of bugs.
