At the moment I am working on an exam for Introduction to Sociology and I find myself somewhat disgusted with how much humans assimilate to social norms. One of the questions on my exam relates to socialization, which as defined by my instructor and the text, is what makes us human. While I agree that […]
I seem to have mis-calculated something in my degree audit, and because Banner is generally less intelligent than a trained monkey, it was no help in discovering the error. When I so eagerly marked the waiver status on the first two requirements on the degree form I neglected that those 5 credit hours don’t just […]
I have been thinking about my “status” architecture for GITI. At present I can tell GITI my status directly, through the UI, or by sending it an email (must be done from my phone at this time, as it only accepts 1 address). GITI will in turn post to Twitter, which Facebook picks up on. […]
Sometimes I get distracted, so distracted in fact that I forget to do things that one might consider important, especially when writing code. It would seem that about a year ago when I wrote code for adding batches of assignments to GITI I thought far enough ahead to add a “batch stamp” to the assignment […]

It has been upgraded and mutated and I have customized some things, but in general, it never did become as familiar as it should have been. At this moment the original blog address (disturbingthoughts.net) runs on MoveableType and the new blog […]
Last night I wrote out a report on what courses actually apply to my degree. This particular blog entry is a bit different, it is a quick list of courses that were successfully transferred but that do not apply to the degree. Java Programming – CPCC – Summer 2005 Introduction to Computer Science I […]
As I near the completion of my undergraduate career and must fill out my final Academic Progress Report I have decided to utilize the degree audit features in Banner and work with it and other documentation to create a detailed picture of where all of my credits have come from for the degree. I have […]
Maybe there is something wrong with me, I can’t manage to get my apps organized into a sensible way. Anyone want to offer some suggestions? I’ve tried dragging my apps around and I just can’t get them into a sensible arrangement and I hate the iOS folder grouping stuff.
