liv | My friends are lovely (Reply)

Some of my cells turned out to be dead yesterday, so I couldn't do the experiment I wanted to do. Also, it was very, very sunny, so I called SA and invited her to go and play in the sun. So we did, we went for a longish walk round the water by Djurgården, which is one of the most gorgeous urban parks here. And even after several hours walking, we wanted to keep chatting so we went out for a Chinese meal at a little restaurant close by SA's place, Conton. One of those veggie fake meat places; they did a reasonably convincing hoisin duck.

I got home later than I'd quite intended, and found that

jack had made me this guide to what's actually going on inside a computer when you program it. It started with me asking a small question about something I was working on for Dreamwidth, and then I didn't have some of the principles needed to understand the answer, and the explanation grew into this huge essay with examples. That's the sort of thing I find ultimately romantic, because I get to learn new things, thanks to

jack putting serious effort into supporting my interests.
