I only have a week left to close the ticket. This is quite worrysome for me as I was the one who wrote up most of the tickets for the project, and assumed the role of community lead. With no one in my home to seek guidance or confidence from, I tried, unsucce ...

More Code/Cave diving Sadly no Threebean to help me search. However, I have not forgotten the most valuable command line call he has taught me so far: "grep -inr SEARCH_TERM * | less." For information on how that works, click... HERE. It's a previous blog post, from day 7.5, the day I lost count. So, as you recall from my post of day 17 I spoke a grand revelation about all unix commands be ...

Workin' Hard or Hardly workin', eh MAC? At the start of the day, I felt pretty positive. Threebean was in the FOSSbox today, and I recalled our previous code diving experience. He told me that someone from ITS was worried about the routers and was a bit unsure as to why they were sending de-authenticating packets to someone network.

More School Server Stupidity Hai! Today I started the McNair scholars program, and now have to run off to a class every monday and wednesday from 1:00 to 3:00 this summer.

I will no longer play lemonade stand during my breaks! After all, I already have a screenshot of [$1,000,000,000,000+](http://www.elsolet.net/wp- content/ ...

Assignment and Ouya Today we wrapped up assigning issues for phase one to one another, as well as decide our team roles. For the first trimester, I got assigned the issue about connecting to school servers and looking into creating an Mozilla Open Badge allotment system. Near the end of the day, I got to playtest the Ouya Android Gaming System. I got some valuable gamete ...

Marking Milestones Today I cracked down on our project, and marked out all our milestones on Github Well, actually I first had to learn how. With some experimentation I planned out my project just as I had had to do in the Software Engineering class I took a year ago. To view our issues and milestones click here! A while back I mentioned when we went through and assigned topics ...
