  1. @thisfred: call me paranoid, but "you can edit - through HTTP" doesn't ease my mind (and I'm a web geek) - but I guess it's too late anyway
  2. looks like there'll be another MechWarrior game: http://tinyurl.com/nqsjr6 - just recently I bemoaned the genre's demise #BattleTech
  3. sometimes I get confused with multiple screens, wondering why my typing's not showing up - later I'm surprised to find a blank file in Vim
  4. @sil: I'm a bit worried by the #desktopcouch movement; I like being able to edit, rsync etc. my dot files #unix #transparency
  5. wasting my time on the intranet again as The System keeps eating my inputs with "an unexpected error"... #jailside
  6. more notes from #EuroPython - "Python Sucks": http://fnd.lewcid.org/blog/...
  7. OH: "How can I do X? (The FAQ says it's not possible.)"
  8. chuckling at the irony of a book on Writing Clean Code exclusively using examples in Java #EuroPython
  9. great evening discussing geeky things with @cdent, following a packed day at #EuroPython
  10. hesitant to attend sessions not taking place in the nicely air-conditioned main hall #EuroPython
  11. published some notes on @hpk42's py.test tutorial at #EuroPython today: http://fnd.lewcid.org/blog/...
  12. py.test is even nicer than I thought (http://tinyurl.com/rapid-te...) #EuroPython
  13. this feels like composing web pages in MS Word - will be abandoning this session in favor of the py.test tutorial
  14. Pyjamas (GWT clone) tutorial at #EuroPython - noticing liberal use of presentational attributes in generated HTML... #unimpressed
  15. @proppy: already using python-spidermonkey (http://tinyurl.com/kmyz4l) - issues are file I/O and report format
  16. Spidermonkey's much faster than Rhino - but looks like I'll have to completely rewrite my JSLint wrapper (http://tinyurl.com/JSLintWr...)
  17. despite TfL's best efforts, I'm finally leaving London, @EuroPython-bound, using on-train wifi
  18. prepping for @EuroPython
  19. enjoying @cdent's #TiddlyWeb briefing at #Osmosoft Towers - exemplary software architecture
  20. sometimes jQuery makes me cringe (excessive abstraction, magic etc.)
