Just another WordPress site
A couple of days ago I linked to a Tumblr site mashing up Peanuts strips and Smiths lyrics. Of course, I found it via Mefi originally. In that thread someone jokingly riffed that Mary Worth should be paired with Alan Ginsberg’s Howl.
Which cortex thoughtfully threw together here: http://www.joshmillard.com/2013/08/15/mary-worths-howl/. Which is yet another reason why Mefi is so awesome.
What has two thumbs and breaks all the builds all morning?
This guy! :p
This is the thing that fell off a UPS truck this morning and got wedged under my car and nearly forced me into the retaining wall on I 80. Thanks Brown.
Mashing up Smiths lyrics with bits of Peanuts cartoons can be effective. See for yourself at http://thischarmingcharlie.tumblr.com/.
Refactoring without unit tests is a lot like playing that game where you splay your fingers out on a table and then stab the spaces between the fingers as fast as you can with a really sharp knife in your other hand.
Writing unit tests for one-off scripts isn’t really worth the effort.
Refactoring one-off scripts pretty much sucks, regardless.
She’s so proud.
Someone (me) has been reading DownGoesBrown during baseball season again. Boo me!
On the other hand, here’s another great article. This one talks about how to fix hockey at the NHL level. Can’t say as I disagree with a single suggestion here.
Oh, and isn’t it time for hockey season to start yet?
Just how many Twitter plug ins does any platform need? I think I had three with this WordPress installation. Hopefully we’re down to a more manageable number now.
So I spent a lot of time with the iPhone WordPress app trying to connect it with this blog and was never successful. Turns out that I’d never “modernized” the password for this account so was using one I used to use when I first went back to WordPress seven years ago. Never bothered to check that when trying to set up the iPhone version of this app.
Feeling pretty dumb.
