Crippling Depression
: a comic about life at Caltech
This was a comic that
Mike
,
Tim
and I made. It ran for three years in the weekly paper. The ongoing theme is dealing with a problem-set filled life in a school with a 2:1 male:female gender ratio. Probably too many inside jokes for non-Techers.
Lloyd House
: my Caltech housing affiliation
Where I lived for four years. It pains me to think that the website may still be running some of my PHP/mysql code.
Useful stuff
Google Scholar
How to avoid using the various painful academic publication search engines ( IEEE/ACM I'm staring at you.)
Ruby on Rails
Open source database-driven web development framework. Ruby is really cozy and there's a free book available
online
.
Python Challenge
Infuriating and addictive. Really illustrates the "batteries-included" aspect of Python though. It made me start to forget Perl.
