  1. I just glimpsed "家出" in the "from" of an attempted spam post to my blog... *and understood it*. Milestone!
  2. RT @JimHolmes: Reminder: #CodeMash early bird discount expires tonight!
  3. Oracle switching alert.log to XML format = probably bad. To invalid XML that browsers won't display = definitely bad.
  4. Fear! I'm in danger of being "promoted" beyond my boss' jurisdiction. But my boss is the #1 reason my job non-sucks!
  5. RT @ThePSF: Registration is now open for PyCon 2010! http://us.pycon.org/2010/registration/
  6. @grantroot I do like Ubuntu Netbook Remix, but I'm afraid my logic was simply, "first one to successfully install, wins!"
  7. "Let them write XML" = "Let them eat cake"
  8. Disappointed b/c new memory I bought is incompatible with my eee pc. Should have installed it in the parking lot before leaving town...
  9. @pydanny Consider yourself goaded to publish your own pre-favorites list!
  10. @voidspace :) That probably just shows that I'm a naughty, undedicated tester. (But maybe new unittest will redeem me?)
  11. blogged: PyCon pre-favorites: http://catherinedevlin.blogspot.com/2009/11/pycon-pre-favorites.html
  12. @sdudenhofer OK; thanks for the advice!
  13. @sdudenhofer the 2 GB - was that a USB drive? Is it hard to get ubuntu/crunchbang to use that as memory?
  14. @sdudenhofer Thanks - do you know Crunchbang's minimal requirements?
  15. Bought an eee pc 900. 4 GB SSD, 512 M memory. Must decide: Ubuntu netbook remix, Moblin, something else?
  16. trying to figure out how to clear locks on postgresql views. Zombie sessions hold locks, refuse to be kill -9'ed
  17. @moshezadka Yikes! Glad you're OK - still, what a crummy day!
  18. Blogged: Configuring Oracle Data Guard: http://catherinedevlin.blogspot.com/2009/11/configuring-oracle-data-guard.html
  19. Adobe's new Download Manager is the most obnoxious software since ENIAC was first powered up. #grrr
  20. NetBeans refactoring tools are sweet, but its Python debugger dies @ every exception, caught or uncaught. I need my EAFP!
