2011 er i gang

Published 09. January 2011 (Original blog)

Da har det gått vel en uke av 2011, og livet går sin vante gang. Uka har for det meste gått til å være forkjølet, noe som har gått ut over det meste, deriblant jobb. Å være forkjølet er noe skikkelig herk, med hodepine, kaldsvette, snufsende nese og generell lite til null energi til å gjøre noe fornuftig.

Aurora – Design decisions

Published 07. November 2010 (Original blog)

Aside from my studies and part-time job, I’m partaking in the activities of Cybernetisk Selskab [no], a student driven association working to improve the social environment at the Department of Informatics. As a member of the board, I’m frequently involved in the different activities arranged, and one of them is the CybWebDev.

Currently we’re focused on Aurora, the codename for a system which aims to be an array of tools supporting the organizational work in CYB. This, we believe, will be especially important when Escape opens, the student driven pub that will open along with the opening of Ole Johan Dahls Hus [no], the newest addition of buildings at the University of Oslo, which will be the base of most of the educational, academic and social activities concerning the students of computer science.

In doing the preparations for this development, we’ve discussed some principles/guidelines that we wish to follow when designing/coding, and I thought I would share them with you here.
