Uni

So I started Uni again yesterday. Woooo. Computer Networks is taught by this German sounding guy called Marius. He's great. I also attended a lecture for one of the most obscure and unpopular subjects I've ever had. It's called 'High Integrity Software Development'. 6 other people were doing the subject. Tomorrow I've got music, so hopefully I'll decide if I wish to commit to 5 - 6 hours a week of that.

I got out 2 books yesterday.

• The Art of Computer Programming - Donald Knuth
• Death Sentence: The Decay of Public Language - Don Watson

I remember researching Donald Knuth's algorithm for solving Mastermind a couple of years ago. The 2nd book is about language, and how it is misused in business/political situations. It talks about how stuff like this just doesn't make sense:

Over the coming twelve months we will be enhancing our product offering to bring you new features and access to innovative funds. You can be confident that our commitment is resolute, to make changes that investor's value - Insurance company newsletter

I read a lot of that crap during work experience. That's partly why I hated work.
