Blog of a Student

I am currently a student of life. I graduated from Guilford College with a dual degree in Computer Information Technology and Philosophy. Now I do freelance programming and go on philosophical quests within my own mind. I like creating new things and I only sleep when I have to. I love robots and cars. I started this blog in 2008 and some months I post more than others but I always seem to come back.

According to the Associated Press, Jay-Z has teamed up with the New York Yankees to create co-branded clothing.  The apparel, which will include shirts and caps and will be sold exclusively at Yankee Stadium starting next week, will feature logos from both the Yanks and Jay.
I guess somebody was listening when he said “I made the Yankee hat more famous than a Yankee can.”

Yes. Please.

hmm when is the next I will be in NY…

Apple Magic Mouse

So my magic mouse has now gone through two sets of batteries since may(when I got it). It has got me thinking… I really want a new way to interact with my computer. Where is my minority report style interaction?

Worst part about being a Geek

I always wish I had stuff that doesn’t exist. I want that cool new piece of hardware /software that isn’t available. I can’t count the hours I have spent trolling the internet looking for the coolest gadgets available. Nothing I find ever seems to satisfy my craving for gadgets. I try to use every gadget I get to it’s maximum potential including repurposing it for things it may not have been intended for. As new technology is released I am impressed by it’s seemingly endless capabilities at first but then inevitably after some time I find it to be limiting or not living up to the hype. I think this is one of the reasons I am so engrossed in the idea of Artificial Intelligence. There seems to be a holy grail within the idea of creating something that can independently interact with me.
