Saw Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. Not bad, actually. Quite good in fact. One of the actors’ “oh-my-god-I’m-so-scared” face was rather distressingly unrealistic, but apart from that it was okay.

Implemented something I’ve been thinking about for some time. My genetic algorith library previously used a whole byte to store one bit of information; now it use only one bit for that. There’s a computational overhead, of course, but it shouldn’t be too large. The benefit doesn’t kick in at short gene-lengths (not at all for really short ones under 8 bit).
