The Egged Getter has been lost in the mists of time. However, it’s code has largely been integrated into TransportDroidIL. An old version of the Python code has been pasted at the end of this post. Here’s a little something I’ve been messing with: A simple fetcher script for the Egged (Israeli bus company) site. I’ve made a deskbar applet which uses it, which was fun to do :) (I’m looking for other cool ideas to implement as deskbar applets)

On an online board, friends posted a photo from a party a while back, as I’m chewing some extra-sour chewing gum: חמוצקי נולד I find this suitable for use in macro form. For example, in the Computer Security course, we’re going to compromise a windows-based server using a buffer overflow vulnerability. Unfortunately, this means we’re going to have to use (as per the course’s demands) Visual Studio 2003. My response (now known as חמוצקי):

New URL - not interesting. You’d notice by now, as you’ve been redirected. Guess my new E-mail. OpenID - interesting, but I don’t have anything particularily interesting to say about it right now.

(or shnekel, if you like) I have a serious problem with religion; It is my opinion that it is an overly powerful means of control.

The most recent events in my life which I would consider to be vacations would be the second Lebanon war and my basic training. I love the Technion, but I think it’s high time for some R&R. With no upcoming tests hovering over my head, homework pressure low-to-nonexistent, and my girlfriend’s birthday Murphy’s-law-bendingly coinciding with her getting some leave, this is a perfect opportunity to try my hand at a real vacation.

All links in this post have been lost to the mists of time. I’ve kept it here out of pure nostalgia. I’m typing the lectures of the course 236343 Computability Theory this semester. Attached are my lectures notes in PDF form: Computability Lecture Notes Computability Tutorial Notes If you also type the notes and would like to collaborate with me, I use a git repository stored here: http://yasmin.technion.ac.il/ohad/git/computability.git To use it, install git-core and curl, and run

Reading some backlog on this blog, I found the following gem: It’s a sad state of affairs that people go ahead and limit access to their wireless network. I keep mine wide open - מי שאוכל לבד, מת לבד. Yeah… not so anymore. For about four weeks (just a bit before the semester started), my net connection was working excrutiatingly slow. Now, we’re four roommates here, so we started blaming each other.
