A quieter week this week than last though not by much! No meetings for me though Paul did get to go to an account management meeting with one of our other big customers which was pretty cool.
For me nothing much happened to be quite honest, I meant to upload the photos but I’ve been getting back so late I never get round to it. The weather has been awesome this week so I’m about to take my ‘lunch break’ and sunbathe for a little while. Quite looking forward to it actually.
I’ve decided I might try and write a little ‘bug-squashing game’ so that we can jokingly squish a bug (or some such) every time we close a ticket and it’ll be a little fun and also keep track of how many bugs we’ve squished that day or week. I’ll have to plot it out but it could be fun. Steve suggested using Pygame to create it which I might well go on and do. I thought it might be interesting to use OpenGL and have a browser-based game but that’s going to be quite involved for what I actually want.
Learning a few more commands here and there. We’re having a lot of space issues on various customer servers so I’ve learned lots of ways to find out how much space is left… always fun and games. Today I learnt a little Perl and re-learned some regex’ing to filter out stuff from logs and parse the Unix time into a legible date.
