  1. marketwire.com/press-release/… Scott Yara's next gig. Richard Snee is there too. about 4 hours ago via web
  2. @rwang0 Giving your spouse +K? Why not, if it makes him/her happy. Tweeting about it? THAT would be excessive. :D) about 21 hours ago via web in reply to rwang0
  3. As you know, I hung out w/ Michael Woodford while he proved ALL plausible structures of kinship were indeed found in the field. @LindaBarlow about 23 hours ago via web in reply to LindaBarlow
  4. @LindaBarlow @esciencenews I really was hoping for a Claude Levi-Strauss reference there ("Elementary Structures of Kinship"). 9:50 PM May 24th via web in reply to LindaBarlow
  5. @LindaBarlow Which is odd, because we once went on a vacation where I played numerous games of volleyball. :) 9:47 PM May 24th via web in reply to LindaBarlow
  6. .@lindabarlow: How are you feeling now? Me: Better, but I don't feel like jumping for joy; I'd probably cough in mid-leap. 9:17 PM May 24th via web
  7. @SethGrimes @merv Well, Scott McNealy was (is?) a big Greenplum advisor. 8:44 PM May 24th via web in reply to SethGrimes
  8. @idbjorh Thanks for the tip! The unreliability reviews on iTunes worry me, however. A pity; Writing Kit's features sound good. 8:44 PM May 24th via web in reply to idbjorh
  9. #GuildWars2 patch notes apparently leaked. reddit.com/r/Guildwars2/c… (Tough to see how/why that would be fake.) 7:56 PM May 24th via web
  10. @GuildWars2 What can you do if you've forgotten your password for Guild Wars 1? I tried to reset, but was told that feature was down. 7:55 PM May 24th via web in reply to GuildWars2
  11. @ggreenwald @AliAbunimah You exaggerate. Adult or teen males killed by the US are "militants". Others are often collateral damage. 6:03 PM May 24th via web in reply to ggreenwald
  12. blogs.scientificamerican.com/cross-check/20… Fascinating, interview-based critique of Thomas Kuhn (Structure of Scientific Revolutions/paradigm shift guy). 1:30 PM May 24th via web
  13. Slides #3./#4 from 100,000-row guys were about "big data", inc. IDC's 35 zettabyte figure for 2020. They also had a non-customer logo slide. 12:38 AM May 24th via web
  14. @dakami Excel downloads are one of their more advanced use cases. 12:34 AM May 24th via web in reply to dakami
  15. Vendor: We parallellize, sort of like Hadoop. Me: Why? How much data do you handle? Vendor: Up to 100k rows. Me: Have you tried a netbook? 8:21 PM May 23rd via web
  16. That's a very big wrap on Kevin Garnett's calf. :( #Celtics 6:55 PM May 23rd via Twitter for iPad
  17. @SethGrimes the food, at least, was very good. Like a better McCormick & Schmick's. 6:48 PM May 23rd via Twitter for iPad in reply to SethGrimes
