  1. @marick reading everyday scripting to help get my ruby mojo back after a long layoff. very impressive. test oriented teaching ftw.
  2. Happy Origin (of Species) Day.
  3. optimist route to atheism: if a bible/koran/etc. style omnipotent monster existed, there would be even more evil and suffering in the world.
  4. vim downside: cut and paste coding is too easy. encourages bad habits.
  5. curse google reader! as a time thief, twitter isn't even close!
  6. been reading jasper fforde's books. really impressed with them and with the art by bill mudron and #quirkybird. english lit with an acidhead
  7. oddly, going to the library is cutting into my reading time. 1 hour walk each way and much library time is spent on the net, not reading
  8. if you fee like it please tweet me 'one' or 'two' whichever number of syllables you (not the dictionary) think are in the word 'field'
  9. trying to formulate a reasonably comprehensive english ie/ei spelling rule with the help of grep and a spellchecker dictionary
  10. I'm 5567th against discrimination by health insurers. Women deserve equal coverage for equal premiums. http://seiu.org/ticket #fem2 #hc09
  11. vim+project+delimitMate+snippetsEMU plugins and a bit of vimrc tweaking seems to make a very effective ruby ide
  12. slowly being dragged into the morass of vim use. now i know what being assimilated by the borg would be like.
  13. slowly getting coding mojo back. a 10 month hiatus takes a while to overcome.
  14. @ashbb has anyone taken over developing Policeman?
  15. Incidentally, Captain Blood is the name of the parrot that inspired my avatar
  16. Tim Severin says Henry Pitman was the main model for Robinson Crusoe. Pitman's story sounded familiar. Turns out he was Captain Blood too!
  17. @IndianGuru hi. surviving. hip deep in a research project when the brain is working right. hope to be active again in a month or two.
  18. grr. climatology. how to simulate a realistic climate?
  19. read jared diamond while net.dead. it takes an amazing set of skills to make sense of macrohistory that way. next: realistic world design!
  20. @ashbb nice to hear from you. connection is irregular (requires long walk, available machine). will be back to rl when possible.
