J loves to climb. He started climbing my computer. As I was trying to make sure he didn’t hit the power button, he leaned forward and pressed the button to open the DVD drive with his forehead.

Wayne: Was he thinking there would be something inside?
Brion: Sippy cup holder.
Wayne: /facepalm you’re right, it can be
Nice bit of perspective on software usability. I particularly like the comment, “No one feels passionate about SharePoint. But they do about WordPress.”
The Software is Wrong, Not the People | Joe Flood
It was a small moment at the WordPress DC Meetup. One of the creators of WordPress, Matt Mullenweg, was in town.

Wayne: I’d love to buck the trend of saying “The computer is always right.” I like how having something open source allows us to act on and resolve our gripes so we don’t have to resign ourselves to the technology we depend on. After all, we are supposed to be the creators and therefore the masters, right? ;p (No matter how situations may actually play out. lol)
Regan: Definitely a refreshing perspective. After hearing David curse for about 5-7 hours straight trying to muddle through the quirks of the HTC software (he’d had a Pre for a couple years), I can definitely appreciate someone admitting that a program is wrong, not the user.
Level 2 coffee? Character profiles? Is this a new Coffee-themed RPG?
For the record: The back explains that it's roasting levels.
Katie: I can see coffee having strength, constitution, and charisma, but the rest…not so much.
Wayne: roasting levels themselves are a stat right? ;> Actually, how does one measure charisma on coffee? How sane it ends up making you after you drink it? ;p
Katie: I'd think of coffee charisma as being layperson appeal…how friendly it is to the general public's palate. But tea automatically has a better charisma, being CHA.
Wayne: (forehead slap) groooan TEAed off good there
Kelson: That's a measurement of Total Effective Armor, right?
Wayne:totally 🙂
Katie:Yeah, that stat increases steeply over time. Makes a big difference in whether you take one lump or two.
Wayne:ba-lump-dump!
Glenna:now, do you want Charisma to mean attractiveness of a person or how hyper-bunny that person is thus driving the rest of us insane? lol 😀
