I'm here at Uni, happily training neural networks to forecast the number of visits to my web page, Noticias de Bree (not my homepage; just a Tolkien news site I have). They all work fine, but require more than 100k iterations to train properly. It could be worse, though; It's not like I needed to train this kind of NN every day :-)

Talking about Noticias de Bree, I thought these days about shutting it down. I had quite bad days lately, and not receiving any pieces of news, comments or feedback on it gave me very negative thoughts :-) I even sabotaged the site in order to get some "what's happening to the site?" emails (none received). So I was this -> <- far from shutting down the site. Anyway, I didn't do it. Perhaps next month :-)

My copy of the Cryptonomicon (purchased from amazon.co.uk at quite decent 18 € overall) is waiting for me at home...

I have not that much urge for holidays as in this diary entry. Getting laid would still be good for my... errr... mental health :-)

Will hack on my local copy of thatware. I'll start on detaching comments from articles, so that I could (theoretically) put comments on anything: articles, polls, users, topic icons ;-) Next thing: actually put comments in polls :-) Second to next thing: the Calendar (with comments, of course ;-). Third to next thing: I'll see. The resulting mess will be called Prancing Poney, since it's Noticias de Bree's (News from Bree's) engine :-))

Just one more smiley :-)
