    by  • May 13, 2012. 9:15 pm • Nikky • 0 Comments

    I recently turned twenty-four, and I’m not sure how I feel about that. I can no longer pre­tend that I’m just out of col­lege, and I’m not quite ready to become that delight­ful mid-twenties per­son­al­ity that we all wish that we turned into when we set­tle into life as enlight­ened adults. This last year has been one […]

    I’ve been writ­ing a lot less than I’ve wanted to lately. And read­ing a lot less than I’ve wanted to. Not to men­tion gam­ing, phở­tograph­ing, trav­el­ling, hik­ing and explor­ing. Ruby? Yeah, I remem­ber I should be doing that too. Dat­ing has been stuck into assorted time slots, and often pushed aside com­pletely when more impor­tant things come into play. I’m run­ning into […]

    Now pre­sent­ing a lim­ited edi­tion of “things Nikky wants to say with­out tak­ing a whole post dis­cussing each one.” Yayyyy. Wee Rex! I got a bunch of awe­some comics at Comi­Con yes­ter­day, but per­haps best of all, picked up this guy: Bat­tlestar Galac­tica (Re-imagined) Was a Dis­ap­point­ment I know this is doing to dis­ap­point some folks, and I’m sorry.

    Life in the Tunnels: Review of “Pitch Black”

    by  • March 23, 2012. 10:32 pm • Books, Nikky • 0 Comments

    Pitch Black Youme Landowne; Anthony Hor­ton Pitch Black isn’t a par­tic­u­larly long graphic novel: only clock­ing in at roughly 40 pages. But its power comes from the mes­sages that radi­ate out from the text. The poignant story reveals just a bit of what it’s like to be a home­less man in New York who chooses to live under­ground in the abandoned […]

    Overlord Ruby

    Back­story Notwith­stand­ing my foray into TI-BASIC pro­gram­ming on my TI-83+, I got started with cod­ing in the glo­ri­ous lan­guage known as Perl. There’s no real par­tic­u­lar rea­son for this choice, other than that it seemed cooler than PHP at the time. With its eso­teric man­ner­isms and increas­ing lev­els of dis­use in a tech­no­log­i­cal cul­ture, I started shift­ing away […]
