Perfect Cell Phone...

Cell phones are getting better. Some cell phones even have built in digital cameras. However I believe there is still lots and lots of room for progress.

I still haven't bought a cell phone, but I will as soon as all of the following are integrated into it: Digital Camera(with GOOD quality), Video Camera, TV, Personal Computer, Wireless Internet Connectivity EVERYWHERE(even in the forest or Alaska) and GPS. That cell phone should also support attachments such as a Monitor, CD/DVD Rom, Keyboard, Printer etc.

Now wouldn't that be a great cell phone ? And the cool thing is that we are very likely to see that kind of cell phone within the next 5 years.

That sure sounds awsome!
As a friend pointed out, they already have pocket projector tv sets, which will hopefuly improve and become cheaper soon. As for the rest, some of it already exists in Japan and for some reason North America is laging behind on this one.

Hell, if such a device will exist, even I will get one!

Start of new life

And so, I have arrived in California. The first week here has not been easy. I arrived on Wednesday, July 27th and my first mission was to open a checking account at an American bank. That part was easy; the problems began when I tried to put my money into it. Back in Canada, I've decided that instead of bringing cash into US, I'd make a money order and then deposit it as soon as I open an account here. Unfortunately, Bank of America decided to put my money order on hold for a week, which has really screwed up my plans to get an apartment by the end of the weekend. Nevertheless I spent the next 3 days looking at apartments in both San Francisco and Mountain View(near work). What I soon realized is that housing in Mountain View is both cheaper, and better than housing in San Francisco. The downside ? Mountain View is BORING. And by boring, I do mean boring. There is absolutely nothing here. Finally, on Sunday I've discovered a fairly decent place in San Francisco. It is only

San Francisco !

Yesterday I finally moved into my newly rented apartment in San Francisco. It is a small bachelor apartment(or studio as they call it in the US), but I think it will suit me just fine. The view from the balcony (I'm on the 27th floor) is absolutely gorgeous. Unfortunately San Francisco is often foggy, so I usually can't see very far. I really like the place so far; and it feels great finally living in a place of my own. Surprisingly, I even feel motivated to keep it clean; this never happened to me before. Am I maturing ? Yesterday I also made a trip to Wal-Mart to purchase various products that are essential for living. It's incredible how much stuff there is ! Anything from forks and spoons, to shower curtain and garbage bin. I spent nearly $150, and will probably need to make another two or three trips. Right now the apartment feels somewhat empty. Out of furniture I just have an air-mattress, and computer desk. Not even a chair to sit on. Hopefully this will change over

Debuggers...

Warning: the following will be relevant to software developers only. Ignore this post if you aren't one :) I wish universities offered a required course on debuggers for those in Computer Science program, or at least made the use of the debugger a mandatory task in a heavy-programming course. Debuggers are fairly simple to use, yet for some reason many programmers still rely on printf statements to do most of their debugging. I think that debuggers course would help students appreciate debuggers. And, IMHO, that's the key - appeciating a debugger, and realizing that it's usually more efficient than using printfs ! Most students probably don't recognize true capabilities of a good debugger, and how much it can do for them. For example did you know that you can create a watch and have the debugger breakpoint when some variable attains a certain value, or that you can set a conditional breakpoint so that a debugger only breakpoints on a line if a certain conditi
