The Alice factory.

I can’t believe my clementine-rose-flavored cake-in-a-cup, baked in a toaster oven, actually turned out! It’s making the whole house smell amazing; I’m waiting for it to cool so I can tuck in. (Awesome serving size, too, imo. Way more than just a slice of cake…) This is promising! I must make again.

I basically used this recipe for orange chiffon cake, except 1/3-ed the recipe, and instead of oranges (mine was really old and gnarly looking) I used two small clementines, and instead of vanilla I used rose water, and … well, I should probably just post.

Really?! Well then, most of them will have to grow up and face the fact that they were the ones who walked away. -_-;

What worries people in factories is electronics, robots,” she tells me. “If you don’t know jack about computers and electronics, then you don’t have anything in this life anymore. One day, they’re not going to need people; the machines will take over. People like me, we’re not going to be around forever.

Making It In America, which I heard on NPR today. It made me super sad for the ones stuck on the other side of the IT divide.

Super obsessed with Sudoku.

So, several posts ago, I was really puzzled by a sudoku app that ran the same patterns over and over again. After trying my hand at printed versions and then websudoku.com (which is a fantastic, fun site) I learned rather quickly, of course, that not every sudoku can be solved via triplet combinations. Eventually, I began desiring a sudoku puzzle generator of my very own, so I started reading up on how other people went about generating sudoku games. In the course of my search, I found this webpage that had a pretty interesting, simple way to generate them using a known valid solution. And then while reading the comments, it struck me that this strategy was probably how my very first sudoku app had been programmed.

Since I’ve been food-poisoned by a tangerine earlier today and cannot sleep, this is how I end up killing time.

I both despise and respect this silly sequencing game that demands perfection of me from the start!

I just read somewhere that the best, perhaps only, way to play is to not be writing notes in the margins of each box. I am actually crazy enough to give it a shot.

Space Required : Space Acquired.

I forgot to blog about this, but recently I’ve been working on a project with some friends that is still in stealth mode but is nevertheless very exciting — for myself and for the DIY/tech community. More details to come. ^_^
