…and I don’t think that’s a bad thing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Still slowly reading VHDL material to get a feel for the language and prepare to work with the Xilinx Spartan-6 board I’ve got at home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Doing some Win32\/C++ investigations to support some file management\/archiving tools that have been simmering for a long time but never yet finished. This also drives some C++\/CLI work as I’m likely to use C# for the user interface on just about anything I write for home use at the moment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Continuing Java and Functional programming investigations to support and enhance my current work role and project involvement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Reading new material (the new Xiling Versal parts look very exciting for a range of applications). Revisiting some older material that I haven’t used all that much (USB hardware level, PCIe hardware level and formal forward error correction).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Kotlin continues to look interesting but not get any time devoted to actually reading the material I have on the language.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A bit of PHP and more WordPress as I look at some networked game stuff and adding another segment to my site here. I’m splitting off the ‘creative’ material from my general purpose blog (which will continue to host my photography for the time being). I’m trying to keep blog entries going as a replacement for my facebook presence. It is a way to keep people I know personally in the loop. This does clutter that area and so I’m setting up pandamallet.com<\/a>\u00a0to host more general interest things. So far the new site is skeletal at best, but I’m expecting to keep that moving forward soon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Still planning to get my RepRap build moved forward. I must find time to read the plans for the Prusa i3 and figure out what my next steps are. I expect that the wooden frame will be right in there and likely followed shortly by buying some filament for plastics and some threaded rod for lead-screws.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n Work continues to eat well over forty hours each week and house projects take a bite as well. I expect this to keep on at least through the early parts of the winter as there’s much on the plate. Hoping to keep the interesting projects in the game a bit along the way.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" …and I don’t think that’s a bad thing.
