- Farmoor Reservoir worth the walk today. Shiny, flat and cold; solid under sun. #
- @wesayso you and @tomd have inspired me to install Quicksilver for Ubuntu, aka gnome-do #
- @wesayso "... then they came for my fingers, and that meant I wasn't able to type a strongly-worded tweet in response" #
- Trying to work out what I need to plan for #ogn12, before actually planning. Meta-planning sucks, but OGN12 will be ace-o neat-o: trust me. #
- @edwardkay that probably reflects one of the reasons IE6 is still around: corporate applications rely on presence of old DLLs to function. #
- Lightbulb moment: donations are POSTed to the HTTPS version of the page which the front-end unit tests don't access. Change URL: tests work! #
- Curses. My bike's saddle bolt has just sheared in two. That's my commute plans for this week turned inside out. #
- Anyone in Oxon got a microphone plus XLR cable? PA guy hasn't responded re: equipment for #ogn12 and need it before 4pm Wed. Beer in return! #
- @darwin get well soon - hope I didn't give you what I had. I don't recommend it #
- @stevejalim saddle bolts are built to fail gradually, apparently, which is why I didn't notice it until I'd cycled into Ox just now. Oops. #
- @drewm Matt Westcott - WINOT? - has stepped into the breach, but thanks anyway! #
- @simonw you know railings were collected for munition in WW2? Brighton's situation in reverse, only most railings were unsuitable: scrapped! #
- Toaster at work sets off the fire alarm so reliably that I've developed a Pavlovian response: rather than heading for the exits, I salivate. #
- RT @j4 UKIP diss "Darwinism" and deny climate change: http://bit.ly/19hfFi (in case you need more reasons not to vote for them) #
- Adam and Joe could mobilize the nation's youth to get out and vote, through #blacksquadron - http://qurl.com/djydj - why not email them? #
- Monbiot exposes the real #expenses #scandal: 1000x the cost and more of a white elephant than parliament http://qurl.com/clcm4 #pfi #debt #
- The end result of preventing home from being the final resting ground of pens from work is that I now have a drawer filled with pens. #
- @griffinkate would like it to be known that the #blacksquadron for democracy idea was hers, which I would have declared but for lack of spac #
- "That's what I really think Twitter is: a Network Construction Kit for Real People.... Tinker Toys or Lego for networking." qurl.com/8hhpr #
- @davecranwell I don't think most people are even doing that, but potential is there. #ogn12's keynote tomorrow discusses some more, I think. #
- Solid 10-year-old Pentium 3, monitor, network card, but no HD or kbd. Might suit Linux hobbyist? OX29, 15mins bus from Ox. #freecycle #
- @petecooper thanks muchly, but someone came through with the goods. You'll have to earn your free beer by some other method! #
- I've just formed an opinion about @rhodri's new website, but I too am contractually obliged not to tell him what it is. #
- @jpcs it's already up there - this is an experiment...! #
- @rhodri I would tell you, but I'm contr- oh, here's a clue: http://twitter.com/j4/status/1707458582 #
- via @bengoldacre, the internets have opened up a can of Kadir-Buxton all over Neal's Yard http://rly.cc/nhs71 http://rly.cc/VUBiW #
- @fatbusinessman I wasn't aware there were others. Let me point out that I indeed meant Neal's Yard Remedies. I have no quarrels with cheese. #
- Watching Moshe Weitzman present talk on migrating data into #drupal, and Mike Ryan a startling demo of applications by Cyrve, at #drupalcon. #
- Data migrations are hard, but 80% of many-table--many-table mapping is a standard problem of nested loops. That 80% is nesting what in what. #
- Looks like #drupal method for migration: let configurable module slog the 80%; hooks give you an extra 15-18%; the devil is in that last 2%. #
- @colinmercer do you want to pitch tomorrow's #oxtuttle at tonight's #ogn12 ? #
- Argh. ($n . ".00" . $delta) might sometimes look like ($n + $delta/1000), but not if $n is a negative numeric weight. #drupal #cck #fail #
- @colinmercer already meant to be pitching two other projects for other people - you'll have to find another pliant Tuttler to pitch it! #
- Psyching myself up for tonight's #ogn12. Primal screaming has given me a headache. #
- Wanted for #ogn12: long power extension cable asap. dm me if you can help. Cheers! #
- Hooray! Thanks to Nick, #ogn12 has wifi - Try JerichoTavern if you're here. But... how're you reading this if you are? #
- Anyone still at JT? Left the four laminated signs on the stairs...! #
- Anyone still at JT? Left the four laminated signs on the stairs...! #
- Thanks to everyone at last night's #ogn12 . I had a brilliant time, but hope it didn't show through my usual veneer of professionalism.... #
- @rhodri @hatmandu "our nephew has been looking after the computer - he knows about that stuff - but it's running slow. Can you have a look?" #
- @ageofstupid kudos to Ed Miliband for continuing to engage with you. Most politicians would have turned into Blears to your Monbiot by now. #
- Almost too tired to do anything this evening, really. Does eating toast count as an accomplishment? #
- @lucyclare I don't know. There's a lot of crumbs on this sofa all of a sudden. #
- @drewm Britain's Got Pheasant. I nearly hit a pheasant this morning on my bike. They don't move, do they? I think it was busy doing a poo. #
- @lucyclare well... it's toast. #
- #toriamos on #radio2 in the next couple of hours on #radmac show - @j4 might be interested #
- #climatechange already causes 300,000 deaths per year, says Global Humanitarian Forum: http://www.guardian.co.uk/environment/2009/may/29/1 #
- RT @darwin @jwebster Cheers for another cracking bbq . Unlike @darwin I get vegetarian freebies to take home. Whoo-hoo! #
- Really pleased with work I've done at @torchbox this week. Hopefully coming to fruitiion on Sunday: looking forward to seeing it published. #
- Also, frontend unit test checks a given user/pass can log into and out of #drupal, and checks /admin appears and disappears for user. Wahey! #
- @alpower I'm using a mixture of Python modules - unittest, BeautifulSoup and urllib/urllib2. Together they form sort of jWebUnit for Python. #
- Beautiful sunny day. Soon will be off to Farmoor for their open day. @darwin, you have an ETA yet? #
- @addedentry @j4 come to Farmoor. I thought you were busy today, hence picnic negotiations #
- Bitten by a ladybird at Farmoor. Awaiting superpowers with some trepidation. #
- @cleanskies you forgot poisonous knees. @j4 promised me poisonous knees. #
- Gosh, a beautiful morning for @hatmandu's picnic. Wish I'd been able to have another hour in bed, though, as I'll probably fall asleep at it #
- @hatmandu all right, you'll probably win, although I do plead cycling as an extenuating circumstance. #
- @hatmandu @brighty what should we bring? We just had 200kg of deliveries from Sr Parmesan di Biscotti but I've asked him to take it all back #
- Could just raid @wesayso's food on the way past. I bet he's got some rich pickings. #
- RT: @Greenwichlad :How the BNP planned to con the british electorate: Please RETWEET http://bit.ly/14nFWY #stopthebnp #bnparetwats #
- @hatmandu definitely. we'll do what we can. #
- T449 FBL in disabled space at North Hinksey Co-op. No badge. #cagerfail #
- Fruity goodness for @hatmandu. Now train station, then picnic. #
- Frisbee south of Rainbow Bridge. @wesayso et al? #
