You’re One of the Worst
So Engadget had a post about all the “e-waste” going to Ching-Chang-Land, and from the comments there was a post to this eye opening video.

After watching a few minutes, it shows a mountain of old stereos and I thought to myself “Oh, I should buy a new Reciever. My old denon ain’t cuttin it anymore.”

Project Euler: Problem 1
***Disclaimer: If you don’t care a bit about programming, stop reading now. This blog entry is pointless and will not appeal to you***
From Lifehacker, I found out about Project Euler. It’s a collection of problems that require a combination of Math and Programming to solve.
So I’m going to solve them while teaching myself F# in the process.
F# is a product of Microsoft Research, bringing purely functional programming language to .NET.
The problems vary in complexity, and apparently should only take less than a minute for runtime.
This is my first F# program, so forgive any blatant errors.

If we list all the natural numbers below 10 that are multiples of 3 or 5, we get 3, 5, 6 and 9. The sum of these multiples is 23.
Find the sum of all the multiples of 3 or 5 below 1000.
Solution Code:
let filter x = x % 3 = 0 || x % 5 = 0 let numbers = [1 .. 999] let filtered = List.filter filter numbers let final = List.sum filtered printfn “Answer: %A”final
Naw, Not in our House
Well this is the first season, in 41 years that Seattle doesn’t have a basketball team.
I don’t have much to say other than:
David Stern: Fuck you.
Howard Schultz: Fuck you.
Clay Bennett: Fuck you. You’re the scum of the earth, and I will kick your ass next time you’re in seattle. Plz believe it.

Well impatiently at pax again this year with rustychu. So far it’s been uneventful. Some good exhibits, some hella douchy attendees and some xxx action. We’re waiting for a talk on parenting and vidogames it should be good. And by good I mean ultra gay.
