  1. @bpettichord Maybe they'll try to train you in some proprietary for-pay tool you've never heard of?
  2. Holy crap. The Game Crafter lets you publish a professional one-off board game online. http://bit.ly/15kYmC
  3. @aalmiray I tell everybody who uses #git to use easygit; it's not training wheels, it's better than git. http://www.gnome.org/~newre...
  4. @dalmaer When was that? My dad taught me how to pirate software in the early 80's. Big pirate conventions where everybody shared freely.
  5. Spam subject of the day: "Who would turn down the offer to buy a cheap classy watch?"
  6. @codinghorror stackoverflow's robots.txt refers to a sitemap that's missing: http://stackoverflow.com/si...
  7. RT @webmink: It seems swearing when you hurt yourself actually reduces pain http://bit.ly/1J55q
  8. @KentBeck many crippleware packages work like that; is that what you mean?
  9. RT @plightbo: Yes! HAIL TO THE CH- CH- CH- CHIEF http://www.chiaobama.com/
  10. Firefox 3.5 generates random numbers in the worst possible way: http://is.gd/1sKYP (via @michaelg)
  11. I'm on a desktop machine. Is there some way I can just tell Firefox where I am, rather than having it try to guess my geolocation by IP?
  12. "A doll that goes to the bathroom? I have a brother who does that." http://bit.ly/nj23O (re-stolen from @dsaff)
  13. @shs96c Really? Zappos reminded me of working at Chotchkie's in "Office Space." Minimum 3 pieces of flare.
  14. @jhuggins Then we'll have to reboot the straps on our boots.
  15. Firefox 3.5 for Mac crashes every time I finish a YouTube clip. Disabled all addons, no help.
  16. @mattcutts Google's Paid Link policy http://bit.ly/h4XwZ says that buying links to robot'd pages is OK, because they DON'T pass PageRank
  17. @mattcutts If links to robot'd pages pass PageRank, doesn't that contradict Google's Paid Link policy? http://bit.ly/h4XwZ
  18. Google Calendar for Android doesn't support Quick Add, but it works via SMS. AnyCut to the rescue!
  19. @gvanrossum #dogood is down because @app_engine is down! They need YOUR help, not ours!
  20. @joewalker You need to verify that you've covered codepaths like "if (IE) {} else {}" ... only cross-browser source-manip'n can do it.
