I hate Mondays…

But Tuesday’s are also terrible!

DayJob™ takes a lot of my time on the beginning of the week, so I get dead tired and can’t produce much on Gateway as I’d wish…

Today I spent most of my time doing research on how to generate procedural names for the planets. Currently I’m using a list of 100 names randomized, but I’d like names to have some bearing on the type of planet… For example “Vulkan” should be a lava planet, “Plantora” should be a jungle planet, etc…

I’m trying a couple of approaches and I’m currently implementing one based on learning applied to prediction systems, which is quite cool, but I’m not sure if it will work with this… I’m currently implementing it, so nothing to show for it today…

Now listening to “Desert Butterflies” by “Yossi Sassi”
