  1. Nothing like spending a weekend porting a bunch of Perl code to C in order to improve performance. Very satisfying. #CompiledLanguagesRule
  2. Massive number of SQL injections going on. Tighten up those forms and parameters. http://arst.ch/ost #SQLInjection #DontBeALazyProgrammer
  3. Ever wonder if more snow disproves global warming? Well, here's your answer: http://doessnowdisproveglobalwarming.com #globalwarming
  4. "I, for one, welcome our new computer overlords" #jeopardy
  5. When programming with #Perl and working with variable references be careful of autovivification. A good description: http://bit.ly/e3rKd0
  6. Watching the Cosmos by Carl Sagan on Netflix. The facts are timeless and fascinating, but unfortunately the video footage from the 70s isnt.
  7. A fun 60 minute YouTube video about the joy of statistics: http://bit.ly/dG2ZFF
  8. Yahoo has now become totally worthless. They are shutting down their only useful product #Delicious -- Time to go export all my bookmarks.
  9. I hate to say it but other web browsers should be more like #IE 9 -- at least when it comes to protection from malware: http://bit.ly/hYsDWl
  10. Follow @gizmodo and tweet the #gizmodolovesyou hashtag to win a prototype Chrome OS notebook. I know @kartpadm already has one.
  11. Google is attempting to get rid of the Caps Lock in their Chrome OS. I say go for it. I NEVER REALLY USE IT ANYWAY. http://gizmo.do/dDZbci
  12. I love the new #PDF reader built into #Chrome 8. It is WAY faster and cleaner than Adobe's Acrobat plugin.
  13. In an attempt to freak out my neighbors I just changed the name of my wireless network to "FBI Surveillance Van #42"
  14. Currently at Ohio State University for a cancer biology retreat.
  15. Want to use Ubuntu without having to set up a dual boot or use a virtual machine? Then use the easy windows installer: http://is.gd/g4C2l
  16. The glowing spider eyes around our campsite are erily beautiful.
