  1. Guys, I'm done with indie game development, becoming a shipwright. I'm bringing it back. I've built, like, five ships already today.
  2. New EU laws concerning Swan industry are a mess of red tape. Maybe it's finally time to get into the Puffin game? #birdeconomics
  3. @davekellett "Youth is wasted on the young." Also, recursive parsing functions.
  4. @badmachinery That's so great, congratulations! I've been hoping for some Bad Machinery books.
  5. If I could have killed the spider with one of those cannons from a Looney Toon cartoon, I would have in an instant.
  6. Oh, what's that slowly descending in my periphery? It's a spider, two inches from my eye. Proceed with unwarranted freak out.
  7. RE my last tweet: j.mp/Kx9ZWv This is it guys, we're going to be okay. We're going to be okay.
  8. When someone combines ginger biscuits with chocolate hobnobs, it will be the precise moment that we enter into a golden Utopian age.
  9. My mobile is incredible. It'll download one half of a text message. Then, maybe tomorrow, or perhaps next Tuesday, it'll download the rest.
  10. And let it be known that @stat_hat fixed a bug I reported only 15 minutes ago over Twitter. I am applauding.
  11. @stat_hat I noticed it was working alright Saturday, and I started seeing this issue a bit yesterday. It sometimes works! Server issues?
  12. @stat_hat I'm looking at that page for a stat with all those graphs. But when I click on a graph's thumbnail, it won't display larger.
  13. Things I've been learning how to do well in Python recently: profiling, analytics, sensible logging and estimating stress on server apps.
  14. @bexierock At least you know +C has a maximum of 25 friends. Oh wait, hang on, what about the Greek alphabet? You might be very outnumbered!
  15. @notch If I'm not too late, I'm an indie game developer and my studio goes by the name of Cranktrain. See! That sounds space-y!
  16. It's weird to suddenly realise that DVDs are becoming a legacy format. I so rarely use them.
  17. I am outraged that the Queens face on the £1 coin will be replaced with Winnie The Pooh. #CoinRedesignPoohOutrage2012
  18. I got thrown a some Harry Potter thing. Disappointed.
  19. This morning our Networking lecturer came in, announced it was 'boring', dressed up as a Lego man and threw Lego kits out at everyone.
  20. It's inefficient, that's all I'm saying.
