hello from california
...for the first time in a long time. I've been out here for the Google Code Jam and will be returning late tomorrow night.
At the beginning of the trip I grabbed a mini memo book from CVS and have been taking notes in it as I think of them, each with a timestamp. It's very stream-of-consciousness, actually, and I think that it will seem very Twitter-like when I post it (upon my return to Cambridge). Except it won't be Twitter, because fuck Twitter.
As for the actual competition, it went poorly, but, well, people can have bad days and I guess this was one. I don't know the actual results but I'll bet I fall within the bottom half, meaning the minimum prize. Not that that's a bad thing at all, really.
The awards dinner is in maybe ten minutes, so off I go.
