You know what's awesome about combing through a 250MB log file for errors? NOTHING. |
I have to agree with @k_shehadeh. The new version of WordPress is just a quantum leap forward. |
@prodigious Oh holy crap. I'd completely forgotten about that. Good times. |
@prodigious Or the *gooder* old days, when there were only Magic-Users, who at early levels could be killed by an ill-timed sneeze. |
@prodigious I know what you mean. The real world needs to leave D&D alone. As long as Dire Chipmunks aren't real, though, I'm good. |
Of all the things I love about D&D, I think the thing I love most is the Dire Badger. http://tinyurl.com/mtmss |
I'm trying to take a picture of myself that doesn't bring to mind words like "deranged" and "sociopath". It's distressingly difficult. |
My dream is to one day unintentionally use "malapropism" in place of a similar sounding word, thus causing the English language to implode. |
Stunning rendition of Dream Baby Dream from Bruce Springsteen. Just stunning. http://tinyurl.com/69gek3 |
Firefox is now consuming 716MB of memory on my box. What. The. Fuck. |
I'm warming to the Google Reader redesign. Easier on the eyes, and being able to collapse sections is unexpectedly awesome. |
Found a site that hosts older versions of Safari, with Webkit baked into app bundles themselves. Very very nice. http://tinyurl.com/287ct7 |
They're playing Tom Waits music at my Starbucks. Fairly tame, non-insane Tom Waits music, but still. It's awesome and weird. |
@redcrowkater Agree. But it's not so much the Christmas music, it's the VERY LOUD CHRISTMAS MUSIC. I'm being deafened by good cheer. |
Operationalize: my new most unfavorite word. "-ize" is like a lexical tumor. It's a suffix of mass destruction. It must be stopped. |
TPM: "... major rating agencies are paid by the companies they rate, which certainly creates perverse incentives." http://tinyurl.com/6qrhn4 |
Here's a financial headline I'd love to see: "Stocks plummet because I don't know why." Really, it's the only honest thing to say. |
Cool way to do tail recursion: http://tinyurl.com/6h9k52. Methods return closures that are called from a simple loop. No stack growth. |
Here's the 2008 Civics quiz given to a random sampling of Americans: http://tinyurl.com/2el6g3. Average score: 49%. College educators: 55%. |
The story seems to have settled into a style that manages to parody Faulkner, McCarthy, *and* Hemingway. Badly. I'm absurdly proud of this. |
