Drinkin' Draught...

...Dressed in drag, singing some horribly off-key variant of "Girl's just wanna have fun" by Cyndi Lauper.

Single Linked List Representation

My latest Data Structures & Algorithms assessment is almost complete. I've coded it and run it through a battery of self-designed tests to ensure that there are no problems in any methods. Any possible errors are coded to throw exceptions, as expected. I've even made sure that all the methods run in constant time periods, with the exception of the "previous(window)" method that cannot run in constant time in this representation.

I think I'm going to chill out, play a few rounds of Call Of Duty 6 before getting to the commenting. It's only fair.

In other news, had coffee with my Mum today, it was really nice to sit and chat, things are a lot better at the moment. Also looks like the idea of getting a place with Scotsman is coming closer to fruition. I hope it happens, I think it would be a great step forward in my life, something I haven't really done before.

Purgatory

Is a place reserved for me apparently.

All I want is whether this radio silence between us will be permanent or not.

I would like to know the reasons, but mostly I just want to know the former. That way I can decide whether or not to keep trying to be friends, you seemingly no longer want to be.

Trust

In a relationship, there is generally a strong level of trust between two people. This extends sometimes beyond that of a normal friendship to the extent that in many cases, if someone wishes to share a secret with a person in a relationship, that person may usually say, "be warned, my partner will probably get to know this as well". This is quite an understandable thing and in many respects, works quite well.

However, just because that person's partner is privy to certain information, it does not mean they have the right to pass it on at their discretion. The covenant here is that while the partner is privy to the information, they are a terminating party in the exchange of information, as should be the person to whom the information was revealed. This means that they do not have the right to pass this information on. This helps keep the information private.

A good model of this is that while you may supply your private details to a company for the exchange of goods and/or services, they may need to put that information through a second company at some point (whether in accounting, stock ordering or for any reason). This second company is bound by the same privacy contract that the first company is and any breaches of this carry severe repercussions.

At least, that is what I have seen is fair and have understood to be the rules.

General Update

Setup is formatting...

Alright, so once again I'm reformatting my laptop. I guess this is what I get for deciding to browse pornography with my girlfriend. A crapload of viruses later and it's no longer worth trying to fix the infections, time to just nuke from orbit and start again.

Aside from that, work is going quite well, study is slowly getting there as well.

Everything else though?
I've had better days.

It seems you know then, you didn't kill me.
I'm coming for you though.
And when I find you, you will wish you had killed me first, rather than make me watch her die.
