Untimely Reformat

leave a comment »

Apple's White Macbook from Apple

After a long, grueling and painstakingly configurations with my Windows XP Guest on VMWare, I’ve decided to use BootCamp instead. This is very untimely for me as I only have less than a day to configure my laptop and I have a thesis presentation in 2 days.

Yes, I am very much aware that I am cramming but if I don’t reformat now, I might be able to say goodbye to my thesis for real.
I have to take this risk. For thesis’s sake. *gulps*

Sun Studio: Fortran

leave a comment »

This is it! I think that I’ll be able to use Sun Studio for real!

Seriously, I have no intents of using Sun Studio since all the capabilities that I want from it (C, C++) can be sufficed by the Netbeans IDE. That was what I thought back then until my course subject (CS 131 – Numerical Methods) required us to code in Fortran.

Right now, I’m looking for tutorials for dummies on how I can compile Fortran using Sun Studio. I am quite a dummy at this but I really want to use its Fortran capabilities and maybe show a tutorial here in this blog now and then.

Well, till then!

These are my mock screens for my thesis project at school. Although I haven’t sat on what features I would include in my user interface, hopefully I’ll know it after a while. :)

Enjoy!

Can’t connect to Sun SPOT? Installing …

Can’t connect to Sun SPOT?

Installing the Sun SPOT to your PC is as easy as one, two, and three! But if you can’t connect download your source code to Sun SPOT, you need to download the spotfinder binary found at the Downloads section on SunSpotworld.com and replace the one found at …/SunSPOT/sdk/bin . :)

That should get it working!

Goal Overhaul

I need to focus more on my school’s OSUM than maintaining everyone else’s OSUMs.

Push Applications

Waaa. I can’t believe that this is week 6 of my internship and I feel I’m progressing very slowly the last month.  (Due to hardware, software and user failure. hehe. ^_^). However, I was told that the next topic which will be given to me should supposedly be for this Friday. Hmm. Even so, I’ll make up for it by learning the BlackBerry Exercises quickly so I could start on the project. Anyway, I’m having a blast learning about BlackBerry.(Too bad, Novare supervisors don’t issue real BlackBerry phones to OJTs. Hehe.)
