The whole school district was supposed to have a rally against the "supposed" budget cut, on that day at Sacramento, the state capital, but it was "canceled." http://jeffchan.org/archives/terminate-arnold/ Today, I witnessed the most hypocritical "rule" I've ever seen. Our five-years-old school has a tradition of something called a "food festival." The festivals are held during lunch probably once every semester. It gives the school clubs a chance to come out and sell food. The food itself is not ... http://jeffchan.org/archives/ridiculous-rules/ I must admit I've been very busy since the beginning of this year, and I've overlooked this blog. I guess part of it has to do with my lack of ideas on what to write about, so during this time of inactivity, I've come up with some great topics that ... http://jeffchan.org/archives/things-im-working-on/ "Taiwan is a Province of China", according to Facebook. What the hell? Since when did Taiwan become governed by China? It's common sense that the Chinese Communist government has absolutely no sovereignty over the island of Taiwan. This isn't even a debatable issue at all. China simply has no control of ... http://jeffchan.org/archives/facebook-taiwan-province-of-china/ Thank goodness the break is finally here! As usual, my task list is full of stuff: read history chapters, book report, RuneWire client, GHOP, portfolio, robotics, various code fixes, etc. GHOP with SilverStripe has been particularly interesting. I've completed 6 tasks so far and I'm definitely going to do more. I've ... http://jeffchan.org/archives/robotics-team-site-remake/ As you've noticed, I haven't blogged in a while. Mainly because of working on the GHOP Contest. You can read more details about it on the site. The open source project I picked is SilverStripe. It's basically a PHP framework that gives user-friendlyness to website authors but at the same ... http://jeffchan.org/archives/announcing-my-first-silverstripe-widget/ I clicked on the "show subthread" link in digg before the page finished loading and got this XD http://jeffchan.org/archives/oh-noz-i-broked-ur-commentz/ Wow just wow! I loading up Firefox 3 Beta 1 today. It felt so much faster when I loaded up digg. But after about 2 minutes of usage, it crashed. Took me awhile to get the Task Manager opened, and after I did, it scared me. It's just a beta version. ... http://jeffchan.org/archives/firefox-3-beta-1-using-700mb/ Wow. It's been almost three weeks since I've blogged. I've been meaning to share what I've been doing for robotics up until now. For the past 3 months, I spent lots of effort in putting together a robotics team at our school. I definitely went through some trouble finding an advisor ... http://jeffchan.org/archives/moon-bots/ Some people really need to find better things to do. There was just a fairly shaky earthquake two hours ago here in the Silicon Valley, about magnitude of 5.6. The location of the quake is in fact just a few miles from my house. No damage caused though. Now... Some of you ... http://jeffchan.org/archives/get-a-life/
