It has, again, been awhile since my last post on my site… Alot has changed since February 18th. I have transferred colleges, have a new born brother, and much, much more! I’m going to, yet once again, make more of an effort to get caught back up with the programming world! I will be coming up with alot more work and experiments very soon entailing a wide variety of subjects that are still interesting to me, such as: Windows API calls, DLL injection, and much much more. I have several tasks that need to be completed concerning the site and my projects. I will post again when I have things more organized!

In the many nights of hanging out on the IRC channel for www.donationcoder.com, I have had the chance to learn a new quote that helps me to be more efficient at things, mostly programming. The quote is this: “Premature optimization is the root of all evil.” The whole quote is: “We should forget about small efficiencies, say about 97% of the time: premature optimization is the root of all evil.” This is a wonderful quote that I try to follow anytime I’m coding.

I have known of this quote but never knew its origin, until tonight. Ewemoa, from DonationCoder.com, shared the quote with mouser who recommended it be shown to me. Thanks to both of them, I can now effectively quote its origin as well. Long story short, I wanted to include this quote, and the page that was referenced to me, on my website. Here is the link: http://shreevatsa.wordpress.com/2008/05/16/premature-optimization-is-the-root-of-all-evil/

Enjoy :)
