And Now For Something Completely Different...
My knitting projects are all going forward smoothly right now, but they are all mid-project so there is not too much to say about them. I am trying to get myself motivated to get finished with my masters thesis... I am on to the section of the language where I put the type checker together. If you are a software person, I would like to pass on a link to an interesting site:
Lots of commentary on everything from software engineering to running a software development company. I do not agree with everything he says, but I do find what he has to say thought-provoking. Even if you are not a software developer or managing software developers or running a company that sells software, I find that what he has to say can be applied to other aspects of life and the business world and is usually worth a look. If I am learning anything about managing its that I need to constantly be thinking: about how to make things better for my team, about where we are planning to go with our product, about how to help people be more productive, about how to stop problems before they start... this site definitely gets you to think. Be sure to check out his Archive which has links to some of his full scale articles on a variety of business process and software engineering topics.
And just because I am feeling scientific today, I have also added links to two genomics news sources to my genomics links:
Genome News Network: Mostly Biotech business news related to genomics, updated daily.
Genome Web: Mostly news related the science of genomics and breakthrough sequencing projects, updated monthly. It also has links to several articles explaing genomics and sequencing that don't require a Ph.d. to understand.
