hello all. hello gopherverse. hello sdf-eu. I have been wanting to do this for a long time, and I am glad I am here. (: I was an aspiring mathematician; I'm in limbo right now. I am particularly interested in the pure and abstract sides of math: algebraic topology, category theory etc. I hope to someday write about these things and why they are exciting. (a la John Baez) I'd like to learn C, and eventually some assembly/ principles of Operating Systems. I think I'll start with the C for now. I am also vaguely interested in molecular biology and neuroscience (check out my ASCII DNA!) NH2 | N C = N // \ / | C C C \ || // HN -- C -- N # a molecule of Adenine ... So this will be a log of my pursuits and the frustrations and delights that I am sure to encounter. I shall also endeavour to keep out the whining, or at least that ought to be in a folder of its own. // well meant, well intended, // not that easily // implemented ~~ happy anoraking! (:
