Hello world!

I find it ironic that one of the first things I was going to do on this blog (of course unique), was to write a “Hello world!” post to figure out how things work. I guess things like that are quite standard, and far from unique in any sort of work that is remotely similar to programming. Whatever the case, since the administrators/designers of this website were so kind enough to get me started with a post that was even titled the way I already wanted, rather than waste their kind effort, I’ll just edit this post. Uniqueness can wait for another day.

Now that I have the issue of uniqueness out of the way, I guess I might as well make this an introductory post. As may or may not have been inferred from above, I do quite a bit of programming, but mainly as a hobby. At one point in my life, I thought that I may have wanted to study computer science, but that dream quietly faded after a single major course in computer science using Scheme, a variant of LISP. If you don’t know what that is, imagine something that looks somewhat like:

;;comment goes here
(code code (foo 2 3 1 car( code code bar cdr(goo hoo 2 4 (* car (stuff) ) ))))
repeat…

and you’re never quite sure if you have enough parenthesis. It probably wasn’t that bad, I just didn’t like it at all.

But I digress. This isn’t a blog about programming, though I may once in a while talk about it. This blog is primarily intended to be a way to put up my projects, and talk about things that interest me. These in general revolve around anime, tech, economics, and philosophy. Strange combination, I guess, but that’s how my personality turned out. Not sure how much of it is showing so far from this single post, but I think if people stick around to read this blog, they’ll start to get a pretty good idea of what kind of person I am, and judge whether or not they care to read my ramblings from that. Because that’s what my posts will probably be–ramblings. This is probably dangerous if my intention was to keep a lot of readers, but I guess that really isn’t my intention. I’m not paying for this blog, so I’m pretty non-committed anyways.

I think that’s enough talking though for now, I’ll just leave it to my future posts to fill in any gaps that I have failed to introduce, if in fact they should have been.

If anyone actually reads this, I hope you’re around to read my next posts. If not, hello when you do, and I hope you stick around.
