I had a sim yesterday morning. Having sims is still a new enough occurrance that I feel like I should announce each one… Anyway, it was pretty uneventful. In fact, very uneventful, as sims go. We only did three runs instead of the usual four, and nothing truly major went wrong. Therefore I did pretty well, and Marc started joking about me working them alone soon. At least I hope he was joking. I am pretty attached to having him or George there at the moment; always nice to have a safety net.
No more sims for me for at least two weeks though. There are three to watch, but none for me to work. Boo.
Class last night was, well, disappointing. I keep forgetting that overall, this program I’m in is for applied graphic design, and thus they teach a lot more about how to do things than why. I’d like to learn more theory, and spend less time on the technical details; last night the professor spent an hour going over how to resize an image at the correct resolution for the web. Seriously.
Sigh.
As for running, I’m thinking of signing up for Power in Motion this spring. Ten weeks, starting in March. That’d keep me motivated through May or June, right? 😉 My goal would be dropping my 5K time under 30:00…
I assume that a SIM is some type of simulation? What are you simulating?
Sounds Interesting!
Yep, a simulation. The flight control position I’m training for is an ascent position, so the sim models a shuttle launch, and we work through our procedures to handle any problems.
Your job is soo cool.
Did you have to dump the hot bucket? How was the datastream, was it fully streamed with data?
Keith.
PIM is cool 🙂
