  1. @sprunka I can talk about using Twig templates if you like. I can also share some JQuery Mobile lessons learned.
  2. Yet another nice tool to see what various JS/CSS/HTML5 features are supported on a per browser basis: caniuse.com
  3. @CHOPUG Thanks. I'm sharing word about the PHP cville group. Let's talk some time to see if I know anything worth presenting on.
  4. I will more likely see a peace accord in the middle east before the makers of hot dogs and buns agree on a package quantity.
  5. If you want exciting web design proposals, don't write a boring Request for Proposal.
  6. ...and then moments after implementing the cache I use apc_delete generously because the cache is stale. :/
  7. This evening I solved a problem with APC in PHP. It is an oft overlooked tool to manage performance.
  8. @sprunka @CaseySoftware Thanks for reaching out. #CHOPUG sounds cool and I would be glad to attend and help out.
  9. If you can find one graph that doesn't show exponential growth for the mobile web I'll eat my hat.
  10. Mobile-first web development is a great way to keep your copy text concise and on target.
  11. Every notice about a change to the "terms of service" on a contract should include a diff. #IfProgrammersRuledTheWorld
  12. Been waiting two weeks for the google CDN servers to host #jquery 1.8.20. Quite frustrating.
  13. Interesting approach to secure REST requests (blog.phpdeveloper.org/?p=484) that doesn't require OAuth.
  14. @waldojaquith I suspected so, but my pie-in-the-sky notion is that legislation should parse and compile like code before becoming law.
  15. Use git for legislation (blog.abevoelker.com/gitlaw-github-…) yes, a thousand times over.
  16. Congrates to @hull_j on passing the #CFP exam. He knows technology and finance, so he is officially ready to take over the world.
  17. If "breaking things is how you learn" then I'm learning a lot today.
