The Thesis is Dead

The thesis is dead. The thesis is dead. Long live the thesis

If you’re interested in reading my 45 page monstrosity in all of its LaTeX’d glory, be my guest. I didn’t use a pdf LaTeX package so the pdf is not as nice as it could be (ie pdf-hyperlinks, Table of Contents linked directly into Acrobat, etc), but I’m proud — its my most advanced use of LaTeX yet (because I couldn’t get the Prosper presentation to work last year) utilizing a full range of BibTeX (for my references) and figure/caption/spacing packages (for the body).

Sadly, the data is not very good, and my analysis is somewhat exaggerated, and most of the experiments were actually completed within the two weeks before today — but I can’t help feeling a sense of pride and relief that its over.

Now, to catch up on all the life I missed — aka, all the problem sets and reading that I did not do.

But its good to not have to treat lab as something stressful now .
