Emacs, Lisp, Godel, Math

http://steve.yegge.googlepages.com/blog-rants
A great many articles to read. Each article can take up to 30mins to read through. "Effective Emacs" got me onto this stevey's blog. Dead domain I think.(http://www.cabochon.com/~stevey/blog-rants/effective-emacs.html)

Also his "Why you should Blog" got me back into writing stuff here. I've always to wanted compose my thoughts and write them down, either by pen and paper (think E.W. Dijkstra) or writing in wiki/blog. Blog would be better for time context-ed stuff. Wiki (local hosting) for stuff I'm reading up on.

And also, Mathematics which is the basis of Computer Science which is based on John von Neumann machine. (stevey talks about this) Well I'm trying to learn math for the intellectual challenge of sorts, will help in my programming language understanding. And I really want to get through SICP and CTMCP (aka SICP2).

Hehe, not really organized writing, oh well heck. Words are really limiting, it's better to have a spatial representation w or w/o graphics on real paper.
Next time!~ :)
