Back To School

After about 4 years, I'm going back to UB to take CSE 422. I wanted to take this class while an undergrad, but unfortunately lacked the available time.

I'm looking forward to learning more about the FreeBSD kernel internals and improving my C coding skills. I'm hoping that we'll also get deep into ZFS and DTrace - but I'm assuming that these topics may not get as much attention as I would like. I guess that's why I have free time :-)

2009 Resolutions/Goals

Every year I like to asses where I am and where I want to get to. Below are my (high level) goals for the upcoming year.

* Master ZFS, DTrace and FreeBSD
* Give a presentation at a conference
* Sail on a regular basis
* Win a speedskating race
* Become proficient with an audio programming language
* Start a side business
* Start up regular meetings again for Buffalo Perl Mongers
* Maintain this blog with useful/interesting content (unlike its current condition)
