"Wonderful" Wednesdays
News, Technical ·Wednesday March 4, 2009 @ 20:47 EST (link)
Workaholics by any other name is still workaholics ("Wonderful Wednesday"? What is this, Nineteen eighty-four?). It's officially optional this time around (not that they could actually lock us the building in in Word 12). For those that don't know about this, "Workaholics Wednesday" means that everyone stay late fixing bugs until a certain target is reached, at which time there is rejoicing and playing of Warcraft. This time, there's usually a fixed end in sight (around 2100) and we usually meet our goal well before the time. What usually happens is that people arrive late the next day, and bugs bounce back as testers and program managers (PMs) arrive in the morning.
The medical bear I bought Honey finally arrived (hah! on me; I expected it to arrive around Valentine's Day).
I installed the Firebug Firefox add-in to help debug the photo categorizing system that I've been working on.
Finished CSE P 505 homework question 4 (did 3 yesterday, 2 the day before); done, although I still want to do some more testing.
I updated my book database system to add a book as read on weRead.com (using my new module) whenever I add a book as read locally. Tested it out with Philip K. Dick's Minority Report and Other Classic Stories.
New computer from Costco arrived.
