Well, I’ve decided to bite the bullet and teach myself C. I’ve tried to do this once before, but I just wasn’t focused enough. This time, I’m going to leave my trusty O’Reilly books behind and try a Sam’s book on the subject. This is more of just a mental exercise, with the possibility of trying to perhaps get on an open source project to use this newfound knowledge, but I don’t expect to do anything “professionally” with it anytime soon.

Also, do you deal with regular expressions in your code (assuming, of course, that you do code)? If so, check out this article.
