Thu Jun 11 11:18:25 AM MDT 2026 Let’s talk about what today is. Today is a rather ungrateful day. It’s a Thursday, so that’s got to mean something. Of course I thought yesterday was Thursday. Such a bummer. I’m freezing today. I don’t know how hot it’s supposed to get outside? But I feel cold. I don’t usually feel cold in the summertime. I hope I’m not getting sick or coming down with something. I’m sitting in my office and I have my minky on my lap because I’m freezing! Sami’s friend dropped off some chairs so we have a place to sit now. They’re nice oversized comfy chairs too! Only cost her eight dollars, so that’s what we paid for them. It feels good to have a place to sit in while writing or watching TV again. Talk about a good thing to have around. Last night, I had some crazy thoughts. Typical “life is a simulation” thought process. I don’t know why I am having these thoughts. They seem to come out of nowhere. It just happens to be that way though. I’m not crazy, sure I’ve be...
You know the age old tried and true method where you know you have a programming language installed correctly. The one where create a "Hello World" application? Yeah, that's the one.
Kids start off with their first words being "Mama" or "Dada", a programmer's first words are "Hello World!".
Side Note: Actually my first words were "Holy Sh** it worked!" But more on that another time.
Ah yes, a tried and true method. I remember reading a book once, where instead of starting with the Hello World example, 'cause the author thought it was rather boring... he started off with a different example completely.
I found this approach to be rather soothing. I was grateful that they had decided to go with a different approach. Needless to say it caught my attention.
Side Note: Must not have caught my attention that great... 'cause I can't recall what it is at the moment... darn it! Oh well.
So yes, next time you write a book or create a script, instead of doing the whole "Hello World!" nonsense, begin with something else... who knows, perhaps it will lead to something greater.
