(7:29:40 PM) bradass87: *as me

(19:30:34) bradass87:: formal handshake:

(07:30:39) bradass87: = P

(19:32:01) bradass87: im 21, male, and i dont really know where the xD ... but my stuff is in Potomac, Maryland ... outside of DC ... and I live and work at Fort Drum in upstate New York

(07:32:28) ZJ: I 'm from the south suburbs of Chicago, pretty generic suburbia here

(19:34:07) bradass87: yessh, I spent some time out there in Chi-Town ... I was there in '06 ... lived in a pick-up, sleeping in the Ohare parking, commuting downtown during the day ... Long story

(7:34:21 PM) ZJ: that sure sounds fun :P

(7:38:19 PM) bradass87: i guess ill tell you the basic life story since im at it already... i was born in oklahoma, lived in the small town of crescent, disproportionately evangelical town... i was the science and computer nerd through school... not the most friendly of places, but i did my best

(7:45:51 PM) bradass87: somehow one of my resumes ended up in an army recruiters' hands... and came knocking at my door

of a story... maybe its worth it =L

(19:52:56) bradass87 ah, why did you drop out

(19:53:58) ZJ: High school was an intensely unpleasant experience, everyone was at least 2 years older than me and they were difficult to obtain, no one seemed to be interested to learn how to actually do, and by the time I had with the second year had finished my grades were so bad they put me in summer school

(19:54:10) ZJ: I didn 't worry about wasting another two years there

(19:54:34) bradass87: ah, yes, gifted in a public education system sucks ass

(07:54:50) ZJ: Well, yes, I just got my ged in the past year

(7:59:54 PM) bradass87: well, in the system i was in, the pupils were seperated in classes by their determined ability from the previous year... they called them sets... if you showed ability in a particular subject, you would be placed in a higher "set" with other pupils of similar ability and interest, the lower sets spent more time on teaching the basics to uninterested or unruly pupils, and the higher sets would teach more interesting, extra stuff, with the middle sets teaching by-the-book

(8:05:35 PM) ZJ: kinda why I haven't signed up for the community college around here yet, it's not like a community college has courses on information theory

(8:12:49 PM) bradass87: anyway, its nice meeting ya =P

(08:13:00) bradass87: I hope you have a facebook question

(20:13:11) ZJ: yeah, I have

(20:17:14) bradass87: I have long arms and a big footprint, low profile, despite my near military installations

(8:25:35 PM) ZJ: I don't know if I'd get involved with politics... activism, maybe

(8:35:53 PM) bradass87: we try our best to keep it from being a tragedy, thats what all the infrastructure, schools, elections, and military training out there is for

(8:40:32 PM) bradass87: so what are you doing now? =P

(20:41:28) bradass87: just do not get sticky or greasy keys, yuck

(9:01:42 PM) bradass87: do you speak linux

(9:05:36 PM) bradass87: then they get contractors who dont know anything about computers to teach it...

(9:06:57 PM) ZJ: that's pretty lame

(09:12:45) bradass87: in the public eye, are in the U.S. intel services mysterious, in the real world, the intelligence of a silly, clumsy, slow and tedious process is streamlined, and more

(09:12:53) bradass87: intellipedia:-D

(21:14:26) ZJ: oh yeah, I heard about that

(09:14:29) ZJ: Is it good?

(21:16:11) bradass87: sloooooow his ... they need more servers and bandwidth, and it needs more people who are really interested in online collaboration, to add things on the distribution channel can be, but yes, the concept works and evolves slowly into useful

(9:39:18 PM) bradass87: but here i am, four years later

(21:43:20) bradass87: oh, its fascinating, but it sucks to receive credit and to the Count moved

(10:04:08 PM) bradass87: scream at ya, tell you what to do... correct your every eyetwitch

(22:05:39) bradass87: it serves one simple purpose tho: a sense of unity, duty and discipline, to act calmly in stressful situations

(10.06.08) bradass87: im sorry, I just kept talking and talking

(10:17:19 PM) ZJ: yeah, it's a big investment, I'd have to be sure to find the right one

(10:22:35 PM) bradass87: i think fulfilling childhood dreams can be fun, but im learning that if you dont aim high, you firstly, dont achieve them, and secondly, you find your more *realistic* dreams to be unrewarding...

(22:24:04) bradass87: I want to be like my idols: Richard Feynman, Carl Sagan, Harvey Milk, etc

(10:24:24) ZJ: that would be nice

(22:25:55) bradass87: it is not the strongest of people who survive, those who respond most to changes in its

(10:26:10 PM) ZJ: didn't clarence darrow say something like that

(10:26:34 PM) bradass87: close, darwin, just replacing people with species

(22:26:43) bradass87: or vice versa

(08:45:39) ZJ: yeah I 'm trying a Python program to get work

(20:56:00) bradass87: Yes, but ... cygwin it runs slower than the native Windows

(08:56:52) bradass87: When writing production software, speed and memory consumption of the ultimate Achilles' heel

(09:02:47) bradass87: my computer just did a HARD crash, not even blue screen just went black and froze (Caps Lock light does not flash when button is pressed)

(09:03:05) ZJ: I have to see that happen, if it overheats

(09:03:43) bradass87: I was installing the py interp

(9:16:47 PM) bradass87: no, what you're working on =)

(21:26:55) ZJ: I have a class for them, when previously there was only a selection of features, but I 've obviously a little confused in the process

(09:27:40) bradass87: ah yes, going from a random selection of loosely related functions to an OOP method, not pretty

(21:27:57) bradass87: still the choice of functions?

(9:28:17 PM) ZJ: somewhere around here

(21:28:30) bradass87: Backup, love, backup =)

(21:49:50) ZJ: Formula makes me think of mathematics

(9:52:12 PM) bradass87: 20 questions =P

(9:55:04 PM) ZJ: if it matches all of them, it wins and the whole thing is over

(9:55:59 PM) bradass87: gui or cmd line?

(09:56:27) bradass87: dont

(21:57:16) bradass87: but that is ac, c + + man say, I have a large bias = D

(21:58:09) bradass87: it's just a simple genetic algorithm in Python :-)

(21:58:14) ZJ: yeah

(21:58:32) ZJ: not even really an algorithm would, supposedly, the bit sequence a chromosome, a sequence of operations for the

(10:00:06 PM) bradass87: such fun ^_^

(10:06:55 PM) bradass87: finding prime numbers with past so many digits, theres a reward for finding one and confirming it

(10:10:16 PM) bradass87: mhmm

(22:12:07) ZJ: I guess my information isn 't steal important enough for anyone

(22:12:30) bradass87: Rijndael (AES) kicks ass = P

(22:14:14) ZJ: yeah, I 've heard

(10:17:32 PM) bradass87: ah, i shee

(10:18:09 PM) bradass87: its just a simple implementation of rijndael i made, so i could try and figure out a way to break it

(10:19:08 PM) ZJ: oh, I don't mind
