All of a sudden, summer is upon us. I’m walking around nearly naked, fan on 24/7, and the door open most of the time. It’s almost unbearably hot here. The dog has moved into the basement with me, since the basement is the coolest place in the house right now.

So what do we do then? We watch The Dark Knight. Twice. It rocked! One of the best movies I’ve seen in a long time. If going to the cinema wasn’t so expensive, I might have seen it one more time already. But now I think I’ll just wait for the DVD (or Blu-Ray).

The people I was working for decided to hire me for a month, until the school starts, so then I have a full-time job to a more “normal” pay, and after that, I can work part-time helping with stuff.

Finally, been reading Getting Real, and enjoying it. Should absolutely learn something here. Just get some other things out of the way, and I’ll start on iEye, and actually making something out of it this time. As they say, ideas are worthless.

employment · 170 days ago

Just started working today. Only Flash (ActionScript 3) for now, but possibly some PHP and sysadmin-tasks as well later on.

The Bad Things:

  • Travelling there takes a long time. Think I might try to work from home instead, if that’s possible.
  • No Subversion/Git/CVS/Mercurial/Some other SCM
  • No bugtracker (that I know of)

The Good Things:

  • The code isn’t The Daily WTF-material (yet)
  • I’ll actually make some money, so I can afford things I want
  • It’s interesting work
  • Should be possible to convince them to add a bugtracker and/or some SCM
  • Had to sign an NDA just to look at their code. Makes it seem so much more secrety and fun.
