Flashing five :-)

I flashed five balls today, which is to say that I threw five balls up in the air, one after the other, and caught them all before they hit the floor.

It's a lot harder than it sounds :-)

In other news, I gave the second half of my abelian categories seminar today. I'd timed it at 32 minutes in rehearsal, so I was rather annoyed when it took over 40 in the actual seminar. Plus we started late, so I suspect I annoyed a lot of the audience. Then we had another hour by one of the professors on monads and comonads, almost all of which I knew :-(

And while I'm here, a couple of links. First, crazy bare-metal optimised algorithms in Quake 3. The Real Programmers are alive and well, it seems... Secondly, some actual English subtitles from Hong Kong films. I may have to nick some of those for the play :-)

Right; well, in that case, I shall see you if I see you, as I may or may not be down tomorrow evening depending on how tired I am.
Until next time, then? ALES reunion/new year?
