My friend @wounsel printed this out for me on one of his 3D printers! It's cheaper than using the UH 3D printers.

Use this http://www.3dhubs.com/students to grab a $25 discount and then head over to http://www.3dhubs.com/houston/hubs/evan/3dprint and upload your STL model. You can get some ideas/models from http://www.thingiverse.com/. I printed out a geometric knot

As a bit of fun code, I wrote an obfuscated factorial implementation that uses subprocesses instead of explicitly using iteration or recursion.

I worked all night on my embedding R in Perl project. It now has

  • a hacky version of stringification
  • refactored conversion routines so that all conversion is in its own function that is of the format convert_r_to_perl_$type()
  • function calls that are created by building a pairlist of all the arguments

I finally made embedding R in Perl as easy as:

R->new->sequence( 10 );

There's a whole bunch of crazy work going on in the background to make sure all the data is in the right format, but it was worth it.

Made some patches to Skud's Metaweb package. Last release was in 2007 and Google hadn't bought Freebase at that time. zmughal/p5-Metaweb@fbd121e~7...fbd121e.

Now I'm waiting for a new release to CPAN https://metacpan.org/pod/Metaweb. :-)

And when that's done, I can finally close this quest on Questhub.

I probably can't take credit for this, but another programmer noticed my old patches to Font::FreeType and submitted a pull request. Now I'm trying to get comaint on the package so that a new release can be made (last release was 2004). https://github.com/zmughal/p5-Font-FreeType
