  1. My data/performance analysis reading list: http://flic.kr/p/7hRUmr Yes, I am the kind of person that finds that exciting.
  2. Booyah! Hard to believe it wasn't before! “epoll support for Redis just committed. A lot faster even with 1000 clients connected” -@antirez
  3. 2009 Thanksgiving countdown! Will be using @ruhlman's suggestion for amazing gravy: http://j.mp/5C7b4m
  4. @bwheatley: The best way to keep a secret is to publish it on the internet.
  5. I absolutely miss my wife and son MORE, don't get me wrong, but after a week on Bad Hotel Wifi I miss my FIOS a LOT.
  6. Enjoying getting to know 'R' a bit better. Still failing to get useful information, but I'm closer!
  7. Very interesting. These guys ported Map/Reduce to the GPU for "common web tasks", beats CPU by 16x! http://j.mp/NpgXL
  8. Loving the DTrace Cheatsheet: http://is.gd/4OuKx The 2nd 'finding probes' trick is super useful, just run your command! [via @benjaminblack]
  9. @miyagawa: Oh good, I'm sure I will save money because of qw(Plack Tatsumaki AnyEvent::Redis ...) so I'm glad to slightly rebalance karma.
  10. Learning a ton. I predict that I am back at work no more than 3 days before someone gets sick of me using the phrase "queueing theory".
  11. @miyagawa: Snow Leopard has a decent capture tool built in. I love screenflow, though.
  12. DTrace can help! RT @antirez: Clearly soon or later there is to understand how Redis performances suck so hard on Mac OS X.
  13. @jjhuff: I would use it more myself but it would mean I'd have to maintain whatever I wrote forever. At least others know wiki markup.
  14. Mmmm, reading books with that distinctive "set in LaTeX" look makes me happy.
  15. Wow, an Ambien commercial played while i was at breakfast. 90% of the content was about side effects. Does that ad WORK on anyone?
  16. Very excited to be spending next week learning the fine art of Guerilla Capacity Planning with @DrQz.
  17. Rubber ducking (http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?Rubb...) is so useful. Not just in programming or SA but for editing presentations as well.
  18. Argh. Left laptop+manbag at friend's house 50 miles away and need it first thing in the morning. Was too amped from playing music, I guess.
  19. Hey, I never noticed Wordpress links support XFN really nicely. Cool, have rel="me"'d serialized.net <-> arduinocollective.com
  20. Nice, rise of the skynet doctor: http://j.mp/YgWPo Helps answer (1) do I have H1N1 and (2) should I see a doctor?
