  1. Buying oatmeal cookie ingredients for Wednesday's £5app.
  2. Why do browsers still not have native file-upload indicators? Large files to upload and no idea how far along they are...
  3. 10m VGA just arrived - now presenters will be able to use the projector on ceiling at Hector's House for £5app http://tinyurl.com/yac4nes
  4. £5app xmas special sign-ups now at 51. Still room for a few more, so don't forget to sign-up: http://tinyurl.com/yac4nes
  5. django batch select v0.2.0 ready (now with more advanced queries possible) http://github.com/lilspikey...
  6. That and the fact that vast swathes of Django's ORM have been re-written/hacked around really isn't helping.
  7. I mean it's just deeply broken and complex - like someone built a jet engine with turbine blades of cheese!
  8. Rather annoyed with this bloomin CMS we've inherited. Uses Django - goes to show you frameworks won't save you (on their own) from crap code
  9. First fix for Django Batch Select done, so now at v0.1.2 http://github.com/lilspikey...
  10. For reference Chrome looks like Safari with respect to jQuery's $.browser object - which can lead to confusion for the history plugin.

  14. For the curious here's a generalised version of the Django ManyToMany select_related equivalent made general http://bit.ly/4BWXQ1
  15. Success getting equivalent of Django's select_related working for ManyToMany. Currently fiddly and hard-coded. Must generalise and write-up.
  16. Impressed with BBC iplayer on Wii so far. Much better than the web-based version from before.
  17. been playing favourite optimisation game - correcting ORM abuse. got 2630 sql queries down to 21!
  18. Checked out Hector's House for £5app last night with @ianozsvald - be good for Dec 2nd. Don't forget to signup: http://tinyurl.com/yhal3m2
  19. Intrigued by the Ribots promise of ’something spectacular’ that may/may not be mulled wine for the xmas £5app http://tinyurl.com/yhal3m2
  20. RT @fivepoundapp: A Musical Christmas Special: Wed 2nd Dec 2009 at 8 p.m Hectors House, 52-54 Grand Parade, Brighton This .. http ... ...
