The first (somewhat) serious snow came today. Well, not particularly serious, but compared to South Carolina where I’ve spent most of the last 22 or so winters, it would’ve shut down schools for two days at least. Daedalus acted a little prissy. He didn’t want to get his paws cold I guess. He got used to it quickly and went exploring. Willow had no problem with it. She loves the cold. The wind was gusting and that was more than the Bug could handle. I wish I could’ve taken a picture of his face. Normally getting him to come in is a hassle, but a quick “let’s go” and he was running for the door.

I mentioned the esoteric programming language brainfuck a little while back. It consists of 8 operations and was created in order to make the smallest compiler in the world (I think the current best is 174 bytes). I was reading a post over on Good Math, Bad Math that defines arithmetic in terms of sets. Pretty basic if you’ve done anything with set theory, but Mark has a clear way of explaining things so I usually try to read all of his posts. I’ve been playing catch-up today.  It struck me immediately how closely the set form that Mark describes matches the syntax/logical structure of brainfuck.  So I decided to play around a little.  Read on for more.

Donna just had me dig up a pic of our Christmas tree 2 years ago, so I figured why not post it. I think it was beautiful. That was the Christmas we got Daedalus.  Be sure to scroll down to see the little boy.
