About Me

My name is Sean Connelly, and I've gone by the pseudo-name Peebrain while on PsiPog.net. This blog was a running stream of my thoughts, beliefs, and experiences about PsiPog and psychic abilities in general.

Wow.

I never thought I would say this, but I am 99.9% done with the new database structure, and I'm actually happy with it! Imagine that! I'm a very anal programmer, and when programming I am always in a constant struggle between effecient code, and "correct" code. If you're not a programmer, you might not understand the difference... Basically, if I don't have an elegant solution to a problem, that is both fast, and makes perfect sense, then I become very irked. A lot of times you need to sacrafice one for the other... so you have a system that works mostly, but has a few awkward bugs because of the sacrafices you made for speed. Or you have a system that is very robust and complete, but slow as hell.

Over the past three days I've been busting my balls on getting this structure elegant, and I've finally finished . Luckily, it was already in pretty good shape from previous "eurika!" moments (like this one).

Ahhhh what a sigh of relief. Now I can safely code the PHP with confidence that the datastructures are perfect. And who says perfectionists never get anything done?!
