  1. Thanks for all the Google Plus invitations. Unfortunately Google+ does not work with Google Apps for Domains. :-( wellsb.com/post/702224702…
  2. Good talk on code katas at last night's #chipy. I think I'm going to start doing code katas in the morning as a warm-up.
  3. Finally saw "The Social Network" yesterday. I'm pretty sure that's the first time I've heard somebody say "Emacs" in a movie.
  4. Defect-Driven Testing: less than TDD, but more than just "find a bug; fix it; write one regression test for it." http://bit.ly/b5uNrc

  6. http://nom.ms/OV Thai-style appetizer
  7. @pekpongpaet Congratulations on all the success with shelfluv.com. Awesome app, and impressive work for a short hackathon.
  8. @ryanbriones Thanks for the presentation at Refresh. What was the resource you mentioned for looking at Ruby from the Python perspective?

  13. CEO of @freshbooks is holding a "How to Build a Web App Business" workshop in Chicago on December 8. Are you going? http://bit.ly/2U3qAj
  14. Should I stop limiting my lines of code to 80 columns? I like the imposed discipline of fitting in an ANSI terminal, but it's restricting.
  15. @codebase Thank you for keeping us updated. Any idea who is attacking you or why?
  16. Anybody using Django with chargify.com, cheddargetter.com, or spreedly.com for subscription billing? Opinion on which one is best?
