Installing Eclipse and such

Hey guys! Sorry I haven’t posted in awhile. Work and life and such have been pretty busy. But hey, I filed my taxes today! So I think that’s a start towards finishing some of the necessities before getting into the nitty gritty of learning how to code. :)

I just installed the Eclipse IDE on my iMac so I could get back into Java. Java was the first “real” programming language I learned (I don’t think the BASIC I learned back in the day has stuck with me at all). If you’re interested, I used this Mac guide for installing Eclipse to make sure I wasn’t doing anything crazy wrong, but it’s straightforward enough that you could install it just like any other application.

I know this blog has been slow-going but we’re all really swamped with life. I’m sure you know how it goes. :) Hopefully things will pick up soon now that the weather is getting nicer and we’re getting used to the strains of new jobs, new living arrangements, etc. Hope everyone had a good St. Patrick’s Day and I hope to write again soon!
