Work Post

9:08am - Here I go again working on stuff. I spent an hour from six to seven am reading that book, and got through chapter five. Very interesting stuff, finally some things I haven't heard of or didn't know before. I'm planning on reading some more shortly, but I wanted to start up a Work Post to keep track of what I'm doing, and comment on it.

9:34am - This chapter 6 seemed interesting, but what I've been reading so far doesn't seem useful for my current project.

Ahh and there's the end of the chapter. Good stuff for the right job, but not the right stuff for what I'm doing.

Next up is Chapter 7: Learning. We'll see if this has anything I can use...

9:58am - So far it seems like this is all beyond what I'm trying to accomplish. I might use some sort of simple learning system in my life-planning AI but nothing like the high level techniques detailed in this chapter.

10:01am - And that's chapter 7. Chapter 8 is on Board Game AI. I doubt there'll be anything in there I can use for my project.

10:16am - It wasn't even a very long chapter. Oh well.

The rest of the book is about Supporting Technologies. Not AI Patterns themselves.

I think I'm spent for now, so I'll leave them for later. For now I'm going to close up this post and watch another Dragon Ball episode. Then if everything is going well, I'll go out for a while and see what I can get up to in the real world.

Work Post

1:04pm - Back to work again. I went to the flea market and checked out some new shops, and got a couple yummy pastries, and now I'm at the McDonalds in the best spot. Things are going well today so far. <3

I'm just going to finish my salad and then read some more of that textbook's last parts.

2:24pm - Still goin'. Just turned off Discord since it was distracting me a lot. I'm reading about scheduling systems and that's pretty cool.

3:01pm - Just finished Chapter 9. Heavy stuff. Didn't absorb a lot of it. I'm glad it's there though, I'll probably need to refer back to it later.

For now I need a break. I may have been goofing off earlier with Discord but my mind was still active. I need to chill out for a bit.

3:31pm - I think that's enough chilling out for now. I'm going to read some more. But, I'm also getting tired. So I might finish my work day soon and head home. I don't want to go to sleep early if I can help it though so I might watch some anime or play some games when I get home. We'll see. For now, more readin'.

3:37pm - Okay I thought I had had enough chilling out, but I can't read my book right now. I mean, I can see the words, but I can't bring the concepts into my head, you know?

Anyways I don't want to stop and leave yet so I'm going to try watching some vids. I'm also gonna turn Discord back on.

4:09pm - Okay I watched some vids on Unity's builtin navmesh solution. But now I've got a serious tired going on, and I have to drive, so I'm going to head home and relax. It's been a long day with a lot of research, but I'm close to doing some development again. <3
