  • Happy Canada Day!
  • Feeling better, although certain gastrointestinal problems will go undiscussed.
  • It’s rained–a lot–over the last 24 hours, so I’m beginning to think that Canada Day in Ottawa would have been pretty wet, just like the last time I was there.
  • Did a lot of simulator hacking, and have the calculator plus some sample demo code working well. Next up are proper LCD contexts, which are a real mess.
  • I hate threads. My stance on threads basically hasn’t changed since hftpd in 1999, and that is simple: Threads are stupid. The simulator may well be, however, one of the genuinely good uses of threads. There is an altnerative, but it is a lot harder, a lot more complicated, and involves a lot more i386 asm.
  • Someone remind me to call my mother; she’s going to be upset, I wager, that I haven’t talked to her in nearly a month.
  • Speaking of which, Joe and Zach haven’t updated their activity logs in three weeks. What gives?
