Shannon's Journal Discussion Thread, Vol. 5

[apollolux]

I might as well just say, the language thing is a no-go.  I cannot spend time learning a programming language when the whole process has changed so much, and I have only myself to help me learn it, while I have so much to do in other directions and a time limit.  I will have to do everything by hand for a while because there's no way I can get anywhere with it without blowing everything else.  It takes me a long time to figure out programming languages.  

So I'm currently working on three different things program-wise.  I have to focus on those right now.  This is a big part of why I'm going as fast as I can: basically there's all this work to do, and the learning process is going to take way too long.  Plus, all I'm doing with all this to do is making myself upset that I'm not figuring it out faster.

So we will have to do a lot more work than I'd like and push hard to keep up, and I'll work on that later, as I have time, little by little.

If you're still interested in having programming done relatively soon even if it might not be ready for immediate use for LTU or DMSI, please feel free to contact me. I have already PMed Ben the details you asked of me previously so hopefully you have those available to you for consideration.

Regardless of whether you choose to program yourself or have someone else do it, I still wish you success in your current set of endeavors, Shannon!
