Updates
Oh dear, more than a month without posting here. Let’s throw in some random updates:
I’m in Dublin for the summer, doing an internship at Google. I’m not exactly thrilled by the project they’ve assigned me to, mostly because it’s C++, but oh well. We’ll see later about getting a full-time position.
I’m not going to be at DebConf. Not only I got the “amount unable to fund yourself” box backwards (40% vs 60%), but the money I was hoping to spend in travelling was unexpectedly needed at home. I tried tricking Google into sponsoring me, but as I was told, “In Google we are generous, but not that generous”. This is the first DebConf I’ll be missing since I joined Debian.
I didn’t fare too well in my return to University. I abandoned most courses, and got my first failure (ever) in one of the few I didn’t abandon. I’ll continue studying one more year at least, but it’ll be hard deciding what to do if I don’t manage to finish by then, because I really, really need to go forward with my life.
