08:49 am: I like how my operating systems professor teaches. More or less he makes us research.

Not much is going on in Gainesville, heading back home next week - partially because Laura is going home that weekend.
Mostly because I need to go into the office for a solid 1-2 days and fix computers.

Which reminds me, I should probably place an order for the server I'm supposed to build.

OS was the lamest class I took.

It's not too bad for me.
Doing some interesting stuff regarding implementing system calls.
Fidgeting with the kernel is moderately fun.
I think our final project involves implementing semaphores on the kernel level.
In C... I just assume that the VirtualMachine we're running BSD on has a TSL instruction.

Making it based on research would piss me off.

But I learned Unix, which was worthless to me considering I use Windows.

Plus, the majority of the class was a bunch of tests on this book. It was more of a reading/memorizing class with some coding.
