2024-02-29 - Oh dear 
------------------------------------------------------------------- 
Oh dear, it is already almost march again. And i haven't even made 
a phlog post this whole year. Again, time is moving too fast for me 
to be able to keep track of it. Work takes a lot of time and 
attention, and at home i am currently distracted by all kinds of 
things. 

Currently i'm still learning to do some programming on the NES, and 
i can tell that i am absolutely feeling as a complete newbie in 
programming for the 6502. But that is not a problem at all... 
Actually this is the exact reason why i am playing with the NES, so 
that i can do some low level programming and really have to think 
about the basics.

Luckily today i finally received an old copy of the famous book by 
Rodnay Zaks; "Programming the 6502". I already had this book in PDF 
form, but i really like having a physical copy of it, as i much 
prefer reading via a physical book. 

Hopefully with some practice, at some point i will become a lot 
less clumsy when programming 6502 assembly. The physical book is a 
bit smaller than i expected, and i'm quite happy with that, as it 
makes it much easier to take with me for reading outside, when the 
weather starts to become a bit better hopefully in a few months.

I'm looking forward to that! 

At idle moments i'm watching the series "Heroes", which i quite 
enjoy. In the past i've seen fragments of it, but i encountered a 
dvd box set of the 2nd and 4th season a while ago in the second 
hand shop. Last week i've found a 1st season box in another 2nd 
hand shop, so i now started watching the series. I'm hoping to find 
a copy of the 3rd season at some point, so i can watch the whole 
series. (Assuming it only has four seasons?)...
