  1. @joedamato Redhat has separate "debuginfo" RPMs, so the standard pkgs can be stripped without depriving us of symbols. Wish Debian would too
  2. Even when the weather is fantastic London commuters are the grumpiest bunch of mindless zombies.
  3. You'd think ATX power supplies would be something most large computer stores keep in stock. But no... Maplin to the rescue. I love Maplin.
  4. Range in #ruby - Careful about using "min" and "max; they could/should be O(1), but they're O(n) where n = (range.first - range.second).abs
  5. Finally posted another part in my #ruby #compiler series: http://bit.ly/39lhKK
  6. Leader of the *Conservatives* promises a "*radical* new direction"... Uhmm..
  7. Apparently my brain refuses to cooperate when the topmost text entry box isn't a search box.
  8. Annoys me greatly when someone makes #Ruby bindings for a library without making them Ruby-ish. I don't want to program C++ in Ruby
  9. I am developing an unhealthy addiction to biltong...
  10. Loving Mozilla Prism at the moment. Though need to upgrade my laptop so I can try Fluid too.
  11. @chneukirchen I haven't gone that long without internet since 1993... The thought scares me.
  12. Dentist: -Let's inject you and have some FUN! Hour of off key singing and 3 fillings ensue. Fun. Yeah.
  13. One advantage of a baby is that you have a handy weight for squats and overhead presses when you can't get to the gym. Keeps him quiet too
  14. #haproxy + #openvz = extremely nice clean test environment
  15. @dfarmer Thanks. Hope to have next part out in a week or two...
  16. @dfarmer Now, *most* of it makes Ruby nice to write code in, just hell to parse.
  17. @dfarmer C++ has a pretty simple grammar. It's big, but it's pretty regular. Ruby's is big and the most convoluted I've ever seen.
  18. Ice cream is not soft scoop if a solid metal spoon still gets bent after being heated over the gas stove for several seconds, damn it
  19. Despite how much I like Ruby, sometimes I feel the Ruby grammar is some dark, evil joke designed to make grown programmers cry
  20. Suspicious. Fixed a string interpolation issue in my #ruby parser, and suddenly two seemingly unrelated unit tests passed.
