Entry #518, (Coding, Hacking, & CS stuff)
(posted when I was 22 years old.)

I've become really excited about an idea for the first time in a while. Paul and I talked to Freeh about him teaching a class in which basically he tells us to write an OS and we do. I've found myself very excited by this idea. In general I have, I believe, a good feel of what an OS is doing. But it's not fully intuitive yet. I understand things fairly well, but not having implemented a lot of that low-level stuff I can't say I truly grok it. And thus doing this will prove to be very beneficial to me, I think. Freeh seemed interested in the idea. And Paul sent me some links that look like good resources as well. I hope this happens. I want to write my own OS. I think I need to figure out a good name. Suggestions are welcome.
