Archiving my Twitter, Facebook and other social network activity
Spam on my blog jumped by a factor of 20 when I installed Comluv in April, with no increase in real comments. Time to end this experiment.
I guess it depends on the site. I wonder how long it’ll take for the spammers searching for “powered by commentluv” to drop off.
DAE worry about dropping their keys/phone/other small important items when stepping across an elevator threshold?
“I keep trying to click on it, but it just oozes out of the way.” “Well, it is a GUI interface.”
I wonder if any independent movie theaters will set up showings of Pirates of Silicon Valley as a double feature with Jobs.
Just moments after I looked up the Windows 95 release date, J said (referring to the carabiner he was playing with), “Daddy have the clippy thing!” *shudder*
Surprises:
1. Webring is still around.
2. I’m still on their mailing list.
3. They’re introducing an Android app. Because, um, mobile.
Despite shots, peanut allergy kills teen
This story really hits home for me because the beginning so closely tracks my own experience exactly a week earlier during Comic-Con: Friday, on vacation, could tell there was something wrong immediately, reaction seemed to be under control but reemerged later…Except with me, the EpiPen worked, and I walked out of the hospital that evening.
No guarantees.
I watched a plastic bag floating around in wind currents eight floors up between this building and the next for almost half a minute before it drifted away.
Gotta love blogging (or any) advice that boils down to “X doesn’t fit my use case, so no one else should use it, EVER!”
Kiddo pointed at a text editor on my screen and asked me to read it. I figured why not? He lost interest at “public static void main…”
This is shaping up to be a vastly different Comic-Con experience than usual.
Made it to San Diego. In related news, now I know what it's like to drive in stop-and-go traffic with a leg cramp. Ow.
Hey, this link on your page is broken. Would you mind replacing it with a link to my totally unrelated site?
Old crowded elevator etiquette: Studiously ignore everyone you don't know. New crowded elevator etiquette: Studiously stare at your phone so you can pretend that you don't mean to be ignoring everyone.
Remember when conservatives liked the Patriot Act even though civil liberties groups warned against its potential for abuse?
There are some words you just shouldn't truncate even on a small display area. Like “deadline.”
J’s reaction to seeing the beginning of a “Little Mermaid” preview: “It’s Ponyo!” Well, sort of…
Saying people shouldn’t complain about a problem without offering a solution is like saying only doctors should talk about being sick. Identifying a problem and solving it are different (if overlapping) skill sets. That’s why software companies have QA departments, run beta tests, and accept bug reports.
Gotta love how the systems on which security patches matter most are always the same ones that really need to avoid downtime.
