@mikesusz

can we all agree to stop doing 'ugly sweaters' this year? they were only funny when worn unironically or out of obligation

Idea: something like a QR code reader except it tells you what website/company a logo represents.

in the spirit of the AKC's "ASCOB" abbreviation ( http://www.westminsterkennelclub.org/breeds/cocker-spaniel-a-s-c-o-b/ ) i propose, for web development:

AMBOC: Any Modern Browser Other than Chrome.

usage: "i built a cool new feature!" "yeah? does it work in AMBOC?"

also, for the younger people, middle-aged folks are going to make jokes about "cyber monday" because in the earlier days of the internet "cyber" meant something different.

i also want them to know proper sentence structure, but, clearly, i am not the one to teach them that.

@mikesusz

i want to teach them how to use the tools at their disposal to fix their situation. or, to recognize when it’s not fixable. then decide; is this transient? do i need help? or just deal with it.

i’m frustrated when they complain, e.g. that the car we’re riding in is just too warm or too cold. take off your coat? or put it on. adapt.

i hope someday they see the challenge, know the limits, are curious to experience. when we hit -17F here in Rindge a few years back, i went outside. i had to know.

ah, to teach my kids that we live in a climate that is inhospitable to mankind and the only way we survive is to build bulwarks of technology to protect us from relentless nature

drop a piece of lettuce on the floor, cats act like you’re trying to poison them. let them near houseplants and they think it’s some sort of buffet.

does anyone at Apple ever actually use Home Sharing?

it's also shameful that i own a car that i'm still making payments on, that is functionally powered by buggy closed-source software that the manufacturer has no intention of ever fixing. i can't even choose to pay for a hardware+software upgrade path.

i had a good idea!

is it really a good idea though? i mean, have we thought about the possible downsides or repercussions?

do i really know enough about the subject to know that this is a good idea, or is there something even better?

maybe it's not a good idea.

280 characters means lots more Buffalo Tom lyrics and that’s a good thing.

Sunday night and now I know
How the night can pass slow
All kinds of ugly outside that's right
And I'm all alone tonight
Distant highway din
Leaky roof my doubt drips in
And as the streetlights and my prospects dim
She turns in bed and thinks of him

not to say that I would not appreciate some closure for the story that we were promised would have closure (that never arrived), but I can fill in the blanks and be satisfied with that.

I have to say that I have basically moved on from half-life. In a lot of ways half life is quite adolescent. It’s very linear, not quite a hallway, but very non-deterministic. Small choice of weapons, very few complexities to master.

i never really impressed anyone with 140 characters, so 280 isn’t gonna make a whole lot of difference.
