Stress, for various reasons, has been building up in my life lately, and I don’t feel like I’m dealing with it very well.  So I’m skipping the long post I had planned for today and instead I’m providing you with these links on garbage collection:

A quick intro to garbage collection

A little more about garbage collection

Explaining garbage collection

These links provide a general overview of how garbage collection works, but are probably too technical for the non-computer science minded to fully comprehend or care about.  The link to explaining garbage collection is the best metaphor for garbage collection I’ve ever seen.

And yes, I opted to de-stress tonight by reading about garbage collection.  That has to make me a grade A geek.

Thanks goes to Daniel Ehrenberg for writing those links.
