I often solve problems in the shower. it’s unfortunate that I hate showering so much. #
@shawnhenning I hate standing, I think. in an ideal world I would sit still and be sponge-bathed. #

oh. I just got the pun in the title of that book “obamanation”. real lackluster. #
high praise: “there might be a real programmer in you yet”. #
@shawnhenning über senior dev. apparently you’re not really programming until there is assembly involved. #
winzip install: 6 minutes. what a great piece of software that should be 15kb. #

iPhone seems snappier after 2.0.2. apple is back in my good graces. #
your language is subpar if: a google for “generators” and the language returns results for code generators and nothing about “yield”. #
