  • Following @hackadaydotcom, thanks @kamenlee! #
  • Offloaded my camera's CF card. It was full. So yeah. #
  • @charliepark Do you ever look at the word 'receipt' and think, damn, there's no way in hell that's spelled right, but it is? #
  • Feels good to be on Rails again for @pearbudget. I always forget how nice it is to do Rails work. #
  • Not sure how much of it is Ruby, and how much of it is Rails. Ruby is really a wonderfully expressive language. #
  • But Rails is also very good, and some parts (like ActiveRecord) are thoroughly awesome. #
  • I'm really all about the data lately when I'm programming, that's where my interest is at the moment. #
  • Used to be an interface guy, but I kinda got burned out chasing accessibility, validity, and cross-browser-non-suckability. #
  • @charliepark You know what always gets me? 'eight.' And 'ought.' #
  • @charliepark Unrelated, but sometimes when I try to type 'myself,' my fingers type 'mysql.' I should get out more. #
  • @charliepark If they're going to go to all that trouble, why not also install Firefox and call it iexplore.exe? :D #
  • Playing with Mozilla Prism on Ubuntu. They have packages for Facebook, Twitter, and the major Google applications. #
  • Not sure what the point is yet. #
  • Multiple Prism apps run in the same xulrunner process?!? #
  • Heading to Maryland to meet with a dog trainer and work up a plan for our Audrey. #
  • @korym Yep, so they tell me. 90 minutes and you get a whole training plan customized for your dog and your goals. #
  • Also going to a wedding this weekend. Wife is a bridesmaid and I'm reading a Walt Whitman poem. Mia is flower girl :) #
  • @korym Yep. And it costs enough to make you stick to it :) #
  • @korym Look at the Richmond SPCA for agility classes. My wife knows the trainers there and they have some good facilities. #
  • Ray Ozzie: Architecture astronaut - http://www.joelonsoftware.com/items/2008/05/01.html #
  • OMG! Facebook apps can steal all of your info, and your friends' too!!!!1. Um, yeah. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/7376738.stm #
  • Simple solution: Zombies? Ignore. Vampires? Ignore. FunWall? Ignore. Top Friends? Ignore. Ignore ignore ignore ignore ignore ignore. #
