Happy birthday @rubyredrick, Francis Hwang, and Gregory Brown!
This Branaugh detective thing looks really good. I'm not watching very attentively though.
I have yet to Christmas shop at all. Or is it "Christmas to shop"?
Moving into town (Barbican area) from Muswell Hill today, for Skills Matter course this week.
@fxn Is that the dangerous form of 'enjoy'? :-)
I hate this "seeing Jesus in [toast, wood grain, etc.]" crap. We don't know what he looked like. If you mean Jeffrey Hunter, say so.
Least favorite Xmas carol (hard choice): Partridge in a Pear Tree. Pure torture. Of the hundreds of parodies, literally not one is funny.
@chadfowler You've drunk the Ice-9, I mean the Kool-Aid.
@jamesbritt 1/2 is about 15/32 more than these people can stand. At least it's just words. I do worry about violence.
Happy birthday, @robbyrussell!
People are so scared of having a black president.
@jrobertson I think they're expected to be there (by MySQL, etc.). I keep having to widen their permissions though.
Today's CNN poll: "Do you think Formula One can survive the economic crisis?" Like, I know? Like, I care?
O.J. goes up the river.
Very fun evening housesitting in Muswell Hill and spiffing up an old Rails project.
I hate /var/folders.
Software/installation rot affecting the once-working MySQL setup on my MacBook.
@paulanthonywils I'm musing about something similar with testing: if it's so important, and if it's possible to do so, cook it in.
@paulanthonywils If no syntax checks existed, we could pressure each other to be ultra-careful. But syntax checks are good....
