I've decided to try a half-day at the office today, and an hour or two in I've not yet died. I'm a bit tired but surviving.
In only marginally-related news, I've decided that I'll no longer refer to computer integer byte orders as
little-endian and big-endian, but rather as
Lilliputian and Blefuscudian whenever the opportunity allows and the inevitable confusion is nonfatal. Because "Blefuscudian" is a damned cool word.
(LJ Spellchecker Genius of the day: endian -> endear; the Spellchecker is completely stumped by Blefuscudian.)
