  1. @therealadam but each of those things is a perfectly good reason to appreciate a piece of music.
  2. @bleything Remember: "premature" doesn't mean "before you need it", it means "before you measure."
  3. @markimbriaco @kovyrin hooray!
  4. @marick I love the SVN chapter in "Beautiful Code" because it emphasizes that beauty is tied to fitness for purpose and harmony of design.
  5. @bsletten and to you!
  6. @jeffscottbrown I'm not a comic guy either, but loved Watchmen and a few others.
  7. @asz @akos I have to give him credit for knowing his own weakness, I guess.
  8. Me: This has to last through Monday. You can't eat it all in one day like last time. Son: I can't open it until Monday. Got it.
  9. @rob_pike tv.yahoo.com (believe it or not) is actually pretty good.
  10. @clarkware My dad swore by that quote. (He's 93, so you can see which side of it he fell on.)
  11. @keavy Oh no! So sorry to see you go.
  12. @dougalcorn *sigh* mine is 5 inches taller than I am. It's not fair, is it?
  13. @dimsumthinking ew. :-)
  14. My 93-year-old dad just surprised me with a FaceTime call from his new iPad. I think those things might have a future.
