I worked on an article for Linux Journal on simulating the PIC microcontroller family on Linux; it is due November 1st so I’ll be working on it next week also. Next week, I’ll finish up the article and begin work on a second one for PHP Architect due November 17. Then I can get back to normal Eclipse development and AtlHack work.
I’d never heard of this awesome strip. Now is the perfect time for me to read it 🙂
Thanks!
The author, Jorge Cham, got his undergrad at Tech. I think he’s coming to visit us soon.
Those tech publications establish you as an expert in the field and should come in handy for job hunts, contract work, or grad school. Nicely done.
