Software engineering sucks

Now, I'm not saying that it's bad to make a plan, or anything, but the whole software engineeering mentality just pushes things WAY too far. Following some premade design methodology when it doesn't fit the project is really stupid. Fine, so choose one of the other premade methodologies then. But …

So now you're probably thinking now: "JakeX suddenly vanishes off to vacation, and then he gets a new computer?!?".

Well, to that thought, I reply: "Damn …

Well, I'm still alive, those who care at all.

Yeah, not much happened since the last blog except that a being of pure malevolence has invaded my home. And it's not a Disney movie. Oh, and I may or may not be getting a PSP soon. Any suggestions as to …
