Just another day
Its been a crazy week so far with all the catching up with my classes and getting ready for my mid-semester exams. I have a Operating Systems exam on Thursday and a Algorithm Design exam next week Tuesday. I am almost comfortable with Operating Systems and wish I could say the same with the Algorithm Design class.
Watched part of the Presidential debate last night - it was I think the last 20 minutes although I had listened to the earlier 30 minutes or so on my drive back home last night. As I have mentioned in an earlier post, I am kind of trying to understand more how the American electoral process works - although there is an entertainment aspect to it. Just watch the debates (which can be entertaining in itself) and then read or listen to the spin masters following the debate or the following morning.
One thing I wish everyone could do is to try and communicate your points to your arguments (and possibly the underlying philosophy) without trying to suggest that everyone else who disagrees with you is stupid, ignorant, dangerous - you know the rest.
