Writeup for my Eagle Project

Project Description

Project Name: Granite Bumpers

Describe the project that you plan to do: I plan to replace the three worn telephone poles that currently protect the west playground with a set of eight gray granite parking bumpers. These bumpers will be smooth on the bottom, rough all around the edges, and have a flamed finish on the top. They will be pinned to the ground through the use of two metal pins anchored in the parking lot beneath each bumper.

What group will benefit from the project? All Souls Church.

My project will be of benefit to the group because: The current bumpers (a set of three telephone poles) are too tall for this use. The cars often run into the top edge of the poles, and, as a result, splinter and push the poles backward. As the purpose of a bumper is to simple stop the car (without making the driver worry about their bumper), the current solution fails. It is also a slight safety hazard, as many kids play less than 50ft away and quite often go over the poles to reach

Common App Essay(s)

I play on my computer. It's not video games that capture my imagination and time, though; instead, it is that most ethereal ability of software - to create whatever you can imagine, with only code standing in your way. For a moment, pretend you are an architect. Imagine if you could have the original blueprints for the greatest building in the world, then modify them to your hearts content and have those changes reflected in the actual building. That is the promise of open-source software; and one of the greatest open-source projects ever created is the Internet. It has been moving away from its open-source roots, however, toward a web of somewhat-interconnected, mostly-separate networks. This is a bad thing.

Because the Internet is one of the greatest inventions ever created by man, it must be kept free and open, not controlled by any single entity or group. The last invention with this kind of an impact was Gutenberg's printing press, and that idea took far longer to spread. The Internet removes the mi

It's a résumé, as a readable and compilable C source file. Since Hacker News got here, this has been updated to be most of my actual résumé. This isn't a serious document, just a concept to annoy people who talk about recruiting and the formats they accept résumés in. It's also relatively representative of my coding style.

Since this is on Hacker News and reddit...

  • No, I don't distribute my résumé like this. A friend of mine made a joke about me being the kind of person who would do this, so I did (the link on that page was added later). My actual résumé is a good bit crazier.
  • I apologize for the use of _t in my types. I spend a lot of time at a level where I can do that; "reserved for system libraries? I am the system libraries".
  • Since people kept complaining, I've fixed the assignments of string literals to non-const char *s.
  • My use of type * name, however, is entirely intentional.
  • If you're using an older compiler, you might have trouble with the anonymous unions and the designated initializers - I think gcc 4.4 requires some extra braces to get them working together. Anything reasonably recent should work fine. Clang and gcc (newer than 4.4, at le
