Hands

Thu, 09/19/2002 - 10:40am

Okay, okay, I should be studying I know but I took a small break for 15 minutes. I found this really nice Flash thing (through Betere Dingen).

Not good if you're afraid of hands.

Clock

Thu, 09/19/2002 - 9:41am

Today I'm studying again, it's probably going to take another two weeks. The subject is more difficult than I thought, but interesting. Today I learned how to specify a clock:

`act`	`tick`
	`display: Nat`
proc	`Clock(n:Nat) = tick·Clock(S(n)) + display(n)·Clock(n)`
`init`	`Clock(0)`

Nice language :)

At 999 Games

Wed, 09/18/2002 - 4:22pm

Picture of 999 Games I'm at 999 Games now; it's a very pleasant evening with many friends. I've only played one game, Carcazonne. I became 2nd (Rob was first).

I haven't seen 999 Games' new building before and I'm quite impressed -- a real improvement. We've been talking about the Spellenspektakel, the annual game fair in Eindhoven.

Today I'm staying home. I'm studying for Formele Methoden, and it's hard to concentrate on the books at Chess.

Tonight I'll play games at 999 Games.

Quite surprisingly the new government did something I agree with: they've cancelled the (temporary) referendum law.

Opera as a presentation tool

Mon, 09/16/2002 - 5:13am

My father send me an e-mail about Opera, the browser he uses. They claim they are the "fastest browser on earth".

Don't know about that but they surely have a nice feature. They support CSS2 and when you switch from normal browsing to full-screen mode it will display a presentation version of your website, just like a PowerPoint show.

Here are two screenshots. The cool thing is that it's the same HTML code, it's just using CSS2 that they achieve this effect. Try it yourself at OperaShow (get Opera first).

Two screenshots of the same HTML. One rendered in normal browser mode, one in presentation mode.
