Unfortunate misses suck

Isn't it absolutely heart wrenching how certain situations come up to essentially prevent you from meeting/talking to certain people at certain important times. I can't say what this is about, but I had to get this frustration out.

The stupid network connection had to be down for the 5 minutes which were actually important. I hate it... dammit!

No, my code is not stagnating

Though it does seem like that, since I haven't posted about any development in weeks.

I've been working on a game in C++/SDL and its taking some time since this is the first time I'm building something with levels and passcodes and stuff. It's not going to be anything extraordinary, but it will take about 2 weeks more.

Electroscape

This is a abstract piece of art which I've been working on in bits and pieces for a while. It doesn't mean anything, but I first imagined it as wires and silicon chips.

Made in Inkscape and Gimp. There is a blue version which was the original, the white is simply by changing the layer type to Value in Gimp.

It's starting to get cold

Winter has finally arrived in Mumbai. After a cyclonic depression had made the october-november period a wet and sticky one, I finally woke up yesterday to the first real cold day. Of course the temperature is in the 20s, above normal perhaps for temperate zoners, but that's cold here at the equator. And a very good respite too.
