Twitter Weekly Updates for 2009-05-10

  • Baking bread, full of home-made soup, listening to Fleet Foxes, with garden lights from @j4 + @addedentry twinkling away. This is the life. #
  • @davecranwell the App Engine bug queue is quietly responsive if it's an actual conflict; the plain Google Group noisier but less useful. #
  • Won't let the rain stop us walking to Godstow and into Ox. #
  • @griffinkate perhaps they rickrolled you because you've known each other for so long: you know the rules and so do they. #
  • Oxford Geek Night 12, May 27: all keynotes and microslots filled. Fancy volunteering for The Pitch? http://qurl.com/phgvn #ogn #
  • @mattythorne didn't spot your @-reply earlier. Yes, we're doing The Pitch. Fancy it? #
  • @j4 @addedentry happy birthday to you, happy birthday to your spouse, happy birthday to a library assista-a-a-nt, happy birthday to my mum. #

  • Firefox has done the motivation for me, by grinding to a halt. #
  • Rabbits, ponies, sheep and lots of magpies this morning; last night's jog along Cassington Lane was practically a rabbit rock festival. #
  • II have sweaty ears. That's an unventilated Skype headset for you. #

  • #crapnamesforpubs The Hidden Small Arms at Windsor #
  • Every vegetable soup has its emetic cognate, and it's vitally important to be able to distinguish between the two. #

  • Feel exhausted after soul-destroying Day Of The Spreadsheet. Didn't realise @jwebster was planning to pick up where we left off tonight. #
  • Back to workflows this morning. Phew. #

  • Dear @j4, @cleanskies have delete my Twitter from internet. Please help. #
  • @griffinkate says she missed the Stern lecture on #climatechange in Ox, because of traffic jam consisting of 90+% private transport. Sigh. #
  • @griffinkate says she made Stern after all. Slipped in the doors, just before the heavens opened, like the weird animals did on the ark. #
  • Don't want to go to the Co-op in this grey sop of a rainshower, but if I don't there will be no tea for @griffinkate on her return. Yikes. #

  • Hooray: my DPhil thesis is now preserved forever. Well, you know. Here's a link that doesn't wrap: http://is.gd/xH3A #
  • @addedentry it doesn't help that they've disappeared the linebreaks in the abstract. At least they've not done anything to the actual PDF. #
  • Last night I was repeatedly buzzed by a swift outside the local pub: it swooped in 10m-wide circles looking for insects. Chirping from nest. #
  • @petecooper Speechification have a great Beardyman show archived, about bird calls and mimicry in nature. #

  • Second - or is it third - time found a pill on a seat of S1. Vitamin this time, from size. #

  • On our way to @j4 and @addedentry 's party. #
