  • Thought I was getting on a train. Was out of service instead. 20 minute late. Fuck! http://tinyurl.com/6o7g5c #
  • 2nd out of service double train going north since I got here. Annoying! #
  • Finally a train that is taking people somewhere. #
  • Off the train. Waiting for the cup now, shouldn’t be long. #
  • Finally made it home. Hooray for public transportation! #
  • I’m awake. Building a simple tool to help me out with the stuff that I do daily now, maybe it will make things less frustrating. #

  • finished writing my weekly MTGO metagame article. going to play a game or two before I have to sleep. #
  • made it to work later than I wanted today for the short day. unfortunately I’m sleepy as hell. time to acquire caffeine. #
  • @mjkeliher one thing that I have done before - make sure that the file ends on an empty line, not at the end of one of your rewrite rules. #
  • seriously considering reinstalling my windows partition and all my stuff this weekend. There’s lots to do before that though. Vista or no? #
  • grr. Hating threading libraries. Intel TBB looks great for highly-parallel, but is crap for “normal” threading it seems. #
  • @mjkeliher yay! Dunkin’ Donuts are yummy. This will be bad for my diet. #
  • Partying like it’s 1995 - reading up on how to work with COM. Any good tutorial pointers would be appreciated. #
  • using one of @wrox press old books for reference. #
  • headed to home, a bit later than I expected but still with plenty of time. #

  • @pfhyper “This park brought to you by a grant from the P.T. Meyer foundation, The Wallace T. Grant Foundation, Lowes, and patrons like you!” #
  • was going to try out @twitpic this morning, but my login doesn’t seem to work. I guess it will be for another day. #
  • bleh, I keep getting “limit exceeded, paused 5 min” from twhirl. Yet 19/100 requests this hour. thinking of changing pw again. #
  • back from a meeting that went an hour and a half instead of an hour. I think I might try to actually get some stuff done today. #
  • got my computer name at work changed from (uninteligible string of numbers&digits) to “<prefix>-penguin” so that I can remember it. #
  • Just called apartment building, they said that it took 7 hours more to clean the apartment after we were done. I don’t really believe them. #
  • reading about ringtones. now I want Moss’s ringtone from “The IT Crowd” or the radio/in-game “Still Alive” for my ring. #
  • @jojeda that book cover is very pastel, but it is intriguing. Hope the lib. gets one so I can check it out. #
  • Considering buying a PayPal security key now that I learned you can use it with VeriSign PIP to OpenID http://is.gd/1hi8 (via @codinghorror) #
  • hit 50 ‘closed’ stories in cullect. putting a moratorium on using cullect for the rest of the work day. #
  • If I was to apply at your company as a entry-level programmer, what Certifications would you expect? Required, or can I sub experience? #
  • @andyburns anyone on twitter who hears it. I’m just thinking about jobs and stuff, and wondering if I would actually qualify.. #
  • @cullec feature request: when you click on the empty space in a story, move the ‘cursor’ to that story. #
  • @jojeda I think that version is much better! #
  • heading home from work. long day. phew. #
  • I think I like yahoo maps better than google maps. It seems snappier and such. #

  • at work. filled up the car this morning and have spare $ in the gas budget, considering getting fast food for dinner even though should save #
  • cullect is very snappy and responsive today. I hope it is because of the new accelerator and not because it lost customers :( #
  • @magickalrealism I’ll put that $8 in the pile for the new couch then, we’ll have it April next year :P #
  • google calculator should work with dates too, like “20 weeks from today” or “third sunday of march”. it would be nifty. #
  • @computersaurus I highly recommend stevia - it’s all natural sweetener and doesn’t taste like chemicals. #
  • heading to the DMV office to get my license renewed and then home #

  • made it to work about half an hour later than I wanted to be. trying to motivate myself to do some of the things on my todo list. #
  • one hour to a meeting with people that I haven’t met with in a while, and I’m really tired. thinking about getting some caffeine. #
  • reading about exception handling and thinking of moving away from ZThread library and implementing what I need myself on top of boost:thread #
  • heading to pay the last rent check, and return the keys, for the previous apartment. #

  • Day 3: I’m starting to hit ‘h’ compulsively now. Hopelessly out of the loop on everything gadget-y or tech-y. Hearing phantom podcasts. #
  • At work today for the last day of work. Tomorrow is the first day of travelling to the U from the new place. I need to go there more. #
  • @cullect thanks for the updates. Best handling of an ‘availability event’ I’ve seen so far. #
  • @RobertFischer I recommend http://cullect.com - try it tomorrow, it’ll be back up and awesome. #
  • @RobertFischer Not that I know of, but I might make one if it’s not too complex. #
  • @RobertFischer Cullect does have OPML import though, which helps in migrating from Google Reader or another reader. #
  • @RobertFischer Make your Caps Lock useful! Defy those keyboard manufacturers! http://is.gd/1avO #
  • @arikjones Hell yes! I emailed about this to them over a year ago, finally! #
  • @aric Sounds a lot like an apartment complex, except with friends. What happens when there is drama? Do we all go vote, reality TV style? #
  • running functional tests of the code that I refactored yesterday. redesigning system to be object oriented so that I can code unit tests. #
  • Reading about the Credit Cardholder’s Bill of rights as proposed: http://is.gd/1aKh - Pro Rata Payment allocations is GREAT for consumers. #
  • on a related note, it would be easier to read legislation if it was presented like a diff to the current laws-it seems most would fit. #
  • @RobertFischer nothing cures a caffeine withdrawl headache like caffeine. #
  • headed home. Last day of work, feels NIIICE. #
  • Getting ready to learn about MN beer and brewing at the Minneapolis library. #

  • @pfhyper I just finished S5 D4, but I have seen all of these before. Just rewatching so I can watch S6 and S7. #
  • setting up identi.ca at home now. hooray #
  • Finally hammered down a scheduled time for my Preliminary Orals #
  • running CCleaner on my system. it cleared more than a gig from @magickalrealism’s computer. #
  • Work today is going to be very boring if @cullect doesn’t come back online. #
  • Crap. I forgot my Mt. Dew at home today, I will have to pay the extortioner’s fee for caffeine today. #
  • @newcoventry @hgeorge Do Wikis count? They are by far the most useful tool I wish I had as a TA - forums and web pages all in one. #
  • Doxygen users: @param or \param? #
  • @newcoventry I’ve seen at some Google Talks (video) they have a webapp where people can submit q’s to the speaker. Useful in classroom? #
  • While it’s nice to know what representatives like @keithellison are doing via tweets, I kindof wish that their twitter was more two-way. #
  • @jasonbock The amount of math that I used to know on infinity + 1 > infinity is large, but the amount I have retained is small. #
  • the #1 reason that I want to have unit tests for my project: refactoring with impunity #
  • @jasonbock you can refactor w/o unit tests.. it’s just likely to break something. :( #
  • @jasonbock I have tests - basic integration, functional.. but no unit tests. Refactoring is just cleaning up / restructuring code anyway. #
  • running some tests. toggl tells me I have 1:20 left in the work day approx. #
  • The woot-off at woot.com is still going on today. Hoping to score a new Roomba - ours died. #
  • Twin Cities people: Anyone know of a good laundromat in NE? Recent move means old one is too far away. #
  • tired of waiting for the woot-off to go to the next item, and traffic does not look too bad. heading home. #
