Unemplyoment. It’s not so bad

I’ve been out of work a total of two days. It’s not so bad. I can kind of get used to this. I’ll be working next week at the telecom gig writing Java code for the new billing system starting Monday. I’ve been writing quite a bit of Java recently and have been getting fairly good at it. I’m picking up a ton of stuff along the way. It’s so much easier then C++. Threaded programming in C++ is kind of bogus to have to do, but in Java its a snap.

Threads in Java:

public class TwoThreads{
    public static class Thread1 extends Thread{
        public void run(){
            System.out.println("A");
            try{
               Thread.sleep(10);
            }catch(Exception e){
                System.out.println("Sleep failed");
                System.exit(1);
            }
            System.out.println("B");
        }
    }

    public static class Thread2 extends Thread{
        public void run(){
            System.out.println("1");
            System.out.println("2");
        }
    }

    public static void main(String args[]){
        new Thread1().start();
        new Thread2().start();
    }
}

see, it doesn’t get much easier then that.

I digress.

Anywho, I’ll keep you posted on the new full-time gig here next week. I should have some news in that area to announce soon.
