I wasn’t supposed to work today. I was supposed to prepare the afore-mentioned one day C programming class, and a one day Operating Systems class, but we had a design review at work that needed to be done as soon as possible. The design review went fine, and afterward Orna and me went out for dinner. Somehow we ended up arguing whether our work qualifies as research or not, about the utility of Differential Equations to Operating Systems Design, and whether the Polynomials are a field, or a ring, or something else altogether (for the record, apparently depends on the kind of polynomial – according to this, Q[x] is the field of rational polynomials).

As for the preparations for the class – it’s almost ready, and it’s not even morning yet.
