Four Midterms Down

Whoa! I just got back from my EECS 20N midterm. It was pretty straightforward; there seemed to be no major traps, and it was pretty similar to the past exams. Pulling an all-nighter last night REALLY helped, since I read most of the textbook, which covers EVERYTHING. I expect the mean to be high though…

LaTeX rocks. I used it last night to write up my EECS 20N cheatsheets (nothing beats LaTeX math markup). Once I figure out how to make an MLA template for lyx, I’ll be ready to ditch MS Word. Oh yeah, getting free PDF output is also a nice benefit of LaTeX.

I have a chemistry lab in 2 hours. After that, R&R for the weekend (well, if a written lab report is to be considered rest…)! I’m going to be working on setting up zeroion.evilcoder.com and exploring replacements for MT (PHP-based blogs seem better). When zeroion is up, I’ll post my kernel configs (rejoice ThinkPad T-40 users!) and most of my configuration files. I’ll also try to document a debian-unstable install (those who need it, you know who you are).

I FSCKING hate the Berkeley bandwidth limit. I’m up to 4.25 GB, and my counter gets reset 12 AM Monday. I want to finish downloading my CSI episodes!

    Hey, did you ever manage to figure out an MLA template for lyx? I just learned about lyx the other day. I had been messing around with emacs but… it just seemed out of place with the rest of my Linux desktop applications. LaTeX is definitely nice, though.
