Recent Developments

For this summer, instead of spending it working at summer camp and thoroughly enjoying my summer shooting archery and hanging out with awesome people, I am working for the Helpdesk at WPI and taking classes. Don’t get me wrong, working at the Helpdesk is a sweet gig, and I am enjoying it very much, but it doesn’t have the same feel as working at camp. 8 hours of work a day seems getting off light, so I am filling my time with other things. For my first week, I was modifying my computer to have water cooling to make sure that as I do more hardcore processing with my computer, I don’t fry anything vital. My CPU and GPU load temperatures have dropped 10C or more, and the system is working great.
At the moment, I am doing some web design for my parents, and it is far less frustrating than building my own site, since I already have a good system for working. It took me a couple tries on my site to get a workflow that I can use, and it is working great for me. I am also using a content management system which is new to me, Drupal, and it is fairly intuitive to work with. It has similar features to WordPress, but is more suited to static content rather than a blog-style site. Which is perfect.
Anyway, just felt I should update you on my doings, and tell you that more Vector Hammer is in the works, and should be out in the next couple weeks.
