  1. Got my Google Wave sandbox access today. Alas, no time to play around with it for at least a week.
  2. Happy belated independence day. Watch it: http://tinyurl.com/ndjcy5
  3. Sun officially Oracle. A great day for Java, I think.
  4. Whom do I have to defeat in a lightsaber battle to the death in order to get Google Wave sandbox access?
  5. Huzzah. Productive day with loads of neat code to show for it.
  6. @dickwall Sad indeed. I've bought countless songs and albums from other services after (re)discovering them on Pandora.
  7. More and more convinced that #GWT is the most significant advance in the history of web development. I want Haskell Web Toolkit.
  8. Using UNION and MINUS more in SQL. Clean and composable. If only a DBMS were as smart about optimizing these as it is about joins.
  9. The more I use the iPhone, the less I like how it feels in your hand. This is not a phone. It's a handheld computer with a modem.
  10. If you have "default defaults", you've overengineered something.
  11. @dpp ...because they're almost udon.
  12. I'm downloading Firefox 3.5 and buying an iPhone 3GS today. I haven't been this hip in decades.
  13. @RobertFischer You want to work with the results of callbacks even before they occur? Check out http://bit.ly/WHncF Similar idea in Java.
  14. @RobertFischer You know what else JavaScript needs? Types.
  15. @RobertFischer Something like a Future monad?
  16. @RobertFischer You mean like the JQuery monad?
  17. Functional Java with GWT is incredibly productive for web front-end development.
  18. @jboner I know what you mean. I have the same affliction.
  19. Need to get a new phone. What's good? iPhone? Android? Something I haven't heard of?
  20. Can you say "rhetorical question?"
