Hackfest 1010 Mortem

by graham

Since Last Week:

Ben-
    Added interactive invoke main method. Ran up with issues, but it’s usable.
    Still has issues with Settings in JavaBeans. TAs will start using his autograder in mere days.
Graham-
    Speeding up a pop song seems to work, but my output has glitches.
    The glitches happen even when you speed up by a factor of 1.0, which should in theory do an exact segment-by-segment copy. So the glitches come from an error somewhere in the process, above any errors that may be in the segmentation process.
Vinny-
    Wrote a small GMaps application for finding CS schools.
    Wants your support – workshopping support.
    Has started working on db support with Ruby on Rails.
    What is the most useful feature for you, applying to schools?
Titus-
    His Article is due Nov 1, it’s on doing PIC microcontroller sims in Linux.

Plan for Today:

Ben-
    Debug Settings object in JavaBeans.
Vinny-
    Leading discussion map app. Maybe gamey stuff in Commotion.
Graham-
    Refactor some of my segmentation, try to kill glitches.
Titus-
    Testing bleeding edge and fixing software GPSim, GPASM, SDCC, all to write an article.
Mike-
    Doing the school, math and linguistics.
Stephen-
    Nonlinear optimizations.

This Week’s Reality:

Graham-
    Stole music, chatted with Stephen and Mike, gave Vinny a use case. Suggested Dynamic Queries for CS Map.
Vinny-
    Installed rails, wrote caching scraper for college board. Collected use cases.
    Has compiled a document of several use cases for his systems.
Ben-
    Danced to the music, over and over and over again.
Titus-
    Working on his article, came up with examples. How to do interrupts (pushbutton), using the built-in timer. Should finish article this week.
