The Drunkard
Me
I am David Patterson and I am a Computer Scientist.
Not the well known Computer Science David Patterson, though I heard many jokes during during my undergraduate and graduate school days to the contrary.
I work in Va.
I have a beautiful wife, Donna, who puts up with entirely too much of my crap.
We have three cats; William, Second, and Sasha.
I like to:
- practice Jow Ga Kung Fu
- brew beer and mead
- run
- program
- Ruby
- Python
- Java
- Clojure
- Common Lisp
- mess with my garden
- build robots
- play Pathfinder
- read
I study:
- programming language design
- nature inspired algorithms
- various AI and machine learning techniques
- particularly genetic programming
And the name for this website comes from one of the more creative names for random walks in mathematics.
Wow, fantastic weblog. And may the good times and treasures of the present become the golden memories of tomorrow. Wish you lots of love, joy and happiness. MERRY CHRISTMAS. !
You made some clear points there. I did a search on the topic and found most people will go along with with your website.
I like your writing very much. And Merry Christmas!
Genetic programming and robot building? I only have one question – Are you a Dr. Wiley, or Dr. Light?
Definitely Wiley. He wasn’t dead at the start.
