  1. @shuckins info seems to come in bits and pieces... ex: I think I read that shared memory can use fewer virtual mappings, win for TLB?
  2. Perhaps it is time to bring some form of pointer swizzling to the Postgres node infrastructure
  3. Learned about Lua's 1-based-indexing of arrays...nearly fell out of my chair....goodbye negative indexing and modulo...
  4. Refreshing my memory about the details of shared memory, mmap, and memory semaphores in Linux.
  5. @wtem so far twitter.el has worked out. twit.el may just poll more and hit the hang more often, they both use the emacs url library.
  6. @twit_el does in particular suffer more than the other? Is there a known bug here that may be addressed in a new snapshot?
  7. @swaroopch I've seen the nonexistent-ref message when one pushes only a remote to a newly-inited repo, such as the kind made from git-svn
  8. Sparse matrix singular value decomposition (svd); I will probably have to write a Python interface...http://bit.ly/11CF6Q
  9. Going to hack up #postgresql's dblink to include rudimentary COPY support for replication...
  10. #autotwilot needs some language detection; given that my tokenizer only groks English, perhaps just checking with aspell en-* would work?
  11. Prioritizing checking out #luajit someday; really interested in its performance and expressivity.
  12. Fascinating visualization of expressiveness vs performance of language implementations: http://bit.ly/bAq8S
  13. Burned Saturday working for work; hopefully today I can achieve some #autotwilot quality time.
  14. Late-night hacking of involved Postgres query tree rewrites for work. The code is definitely taking on a "wheels within wheels" quality.
  15. @twit_el "0.3.3". I'm also using emacs-snapshot as seen in Ubuntu Jaunty, which might explain something...
  16. After twitter's freakout today apparently I've always "posted from web" rather than from emacs...
  17. @zedshaw is shelve really compact enough for storing a lot of mail?
  18. GWT puzzles me. Obviously some qualified people like it, I should investigate it some more...but I really like first-class procedures!
  19. Wave: I think, in spite of its humble description, that it could a technology as important as email.
  20. switching to twitter.el; I think twit.el managed to throw me into a select/gettimeofday polling loop
