  • 09:59 Just gave myself the worst shave ever. Hopefully no one sees me today. #
  • 10:34 Noticing that if I don't ever hang out with friends... friends stop calling to hang out. #
  • 15:34 Hey ski shop assholes, it doesn't make me want to be your customer if you treat me like I'm an idiot. #
  • 15:35 Guess they are only interested in me if I look like I'm about to shell out a couple hundred dollars. #
  • 17:01 Called the ski shop in Boston. They'll mount the bindings no problem. Guess the shop here just sucks. #
  • 18:26 Doing my patriotic duty by buying a big, expensive TV. #
  • 19:28 Esther keeps calling me out for my use of "flavor profile." #
  • 19:43 Pong with browser windows. Brilliant. stewdio.org/pong/ #

  • 12:32 Turning on a fan to circulate the warm air that is several feet above my head. Who said high ceilings were a good thing? #
  • 13:17 Just sold our old, crappy toaster oven for $10 to craigslist people. They seemed underwhelmed but bought it anyways. #
  • 13:21 When redirecting a user back to where they were after they logged in, should I story where they were in their session or use a url param? #

  • 12:17 Kill your daemonized Rails dev server:

    ps | grep "[r]uby script/server" | cut -f 1 -d \t | xargs kill -9 #
  • 12:18 P.S. Using a character class when grepping the output of ps makes the search not match the grep process. #
  • 12:19 Way slicker than ps | grep 'foo' | grep -v 'grep' #
  • 16:29 Brain is a mush and it's getting dark. Time to walk home on the icy (but plowed!) bike path. #
  • 17:31 I use git and my wife uses bzr. At least it's not svn. #
  • 20:43 I have a much better attitude about the Winter this year. But I probably say that every year — talk to me in February. #
