New harddisk laptop

This morning my laptop didn't start up anymore. I had some problems with the harddisk the last weeks, and now it just gave up. I had backups of everything, but I had to re-install a few programs.

Went to a customer this morning, to talk about a potential project. Interesting.

Chess in de Telegraaf

Eredivisie live op internetA few weeks ago there was an article in the NRC (a Dutch newspaper) about Chess. It was nice to see a picture of the floor I'm working, but it wasn't exactly the frontpage.

Now we've made it: the front-page of a national newspaper. It's de Telegraaf this time. The project described is Yeahronimo.com, a project Chess has been working on. It allows (legal) downloading of music and online TV broadcasting. Chess wasn't mentioned in the article in the Telegraaf, but a few weeks ago there was a press release by Chess about it.

The website they're talking about is Yeahronimo.com.

September 11th Report

Joint Inquiry into Intelligence Community Activities before and after the Terrorist Attacks of September 11, 2001The congressional report on the terrorist attacks of September 11 has been published yesterday. It's a huge document of course, even without the classified parts.

You can download the whole report (or parts of it) in PDF format.

Europe and Italy

Europe and ItalyA colleague send me a hilarious Flash animation on the difference between Europe and Italy. I really loved the part of pedestrians crossing the road.

Download it here. It's quite big, 1.5 MB, but it's worth every byte of downloading.

New version paper

I've set myself a deadline for my internship paper: Sunday evening I want to submit it. That means of course that I'm quite busy with the paper now.

I've put a new version online (with the sources). The last time I did that was in February: quite a while ago. The homework assignments of Internet Programming and Formal Methods took more time than I thought.

Nice bird

I slept with the window open, and this morning I was woke up half hour before my alarm would go. There was a bird, just outside the window, making a lot of noise. It sounded a bit like scissors.

Internship paper

Papers on the floor.I've been working all day on my internship paper. I'm rather proud of myself because I did a lot today.

The deadline for the paper is the 28th, so there's some pressure. I want to be ready with it tomorrow evening. This way my supervisors will be able to comment on it during the week.
