Sysadmin Field Notes

May 19, 2004

Oh, and I finished my computer organization class with the final on Monday. Didn't knock it out of the park; time ran out on me as I tried to remember how 2-way set associative caching found which slot the cache line had been put into. The moral there is twofold;

• even if you need change for parking and you're running late, you don't have to get a 32 oz. soda and then drink the whole thing and
  
• it's hard to concentrate when you really, really have to go to the bathroom.
  

All of which is okay really, since it's curved and I should have done well enough to maintain my A. We'll see I suppose. Four more units down, 42 or something more to go.
