i am thirsty.

i just looked at the clock in the kitchen and thought to myself wow, there's a digit missing from the readout. because our kitchen clock hangs vertically. and anyway, i thought i was seeing the time as 11:2 when in actual fact it was 2:10. i made myself smile by doing this.

Cool, I happened to be listening to some MP3's that weren't too shabby, and they turned out to be by the author of my favorite drum synth program Stomper:

~ addapt

Addapt [www.addapt.org] is an experiment in developing networked community. Addapt was developed by Rich Persaud as generic community building software.

Each member of an addapt community has a profile. If you want to see the photo of another member you have to submit one of yourself. If you don�??t submit a photo of yourself you can�??t see anyone else�??s, if you don�??t submit a bio you can�??t see anyone else�??s.

You have to contribute to see what others have contributed.

No spectators.

I believe both of these lists have missed the biggest reason for poor usability: difficulty of coding. Creating custom controls and behaviors are more time consuming than using whatever common controls are provided. Common controls are therefore frequently misused. When the interface is designed in advance, developers have a good idea for how things should work and can plan to create custom widgets as necessary. However, if developers are just hacking something up to be functional, as likely as not they�??ll just use any easily coded control whether or not it is appropriate. This is especially evident with the standard Yes/No dialogs. Even with excellent interface design, developers will often take a shortcut and use a control that is easier to code than writing a special one as dictated.

In an ironic twist, the converse is also likely, especially with multiplatform products. Instead of using a system standard common control, developers go out of their way to create widgets that work on all platforms, but resemble the common ones. Inconsistencies between platforms and expected behaviors yield additional user confusion and frustration. The problem is still the same: lack of developer energy invested in completely duplicating expected platform behavior.

Been thinking about building an XML and HTTP and browser based automation engine (based on my experience with Orsus iGlue) that surfs the web and transmits/collects data. A quick and easy target audience might be Yahoo! Mail users, who are losing their POP/SMTP access at the end of this month.

The Lee Shiney show ruled, even better than we expected. People seemed to have enjoyed us, and that's good. The room was amazing, because it was unfinished with brick walls and a concrete floor with wooden rafters. The acoustics were amazing, unlike BGB, and the music was amazing, primarily from the great And Academy. We didn't screw up so much this time, and surprisingly I did not break a string. We just had a good ol' fun time mainly. I really want to play another show there, it's that great. I like the mood the place creates.

Sister Ann Regina : Rules of anti-satan etiquette

People come to me all the time asking for good advice about how to best deal with their everyday satan-related issues. I am here to give you the best tips for keeping satan at bay... Did you know that keeping a package of epsom salt handy will make satan run away? Did you know that if you wear spandex you're giving satan an open invitation to take over your soul? Read more below... If you have other questions, please send them to Sister Ann at rules@stopsatan.org

1. Do not eat chicken picante--this is the official meat product of satan!
2. Do not go near chicken picante--satan will try to tempt you through his meat
3. Do not wear anything black--this is the official color of satan!
4. Do not wear pvc, latex, lycra, spandex, fishnet, or liquid latex
5. Do not wear articles of clothing with more than one zipper
6. Do not go to Palm Springs with strangers
7. Do not look at spinning or flashing lights (especially strobe lights)
8. Do not capitalize 'satan' or any pronouns referring to him--even at the beginning of a sentence
9. Do not dial telephone numbers with 3 sixes in them--this will instantly dial satan's cell phone!
10. Do not use obscenities--this is the official tongue of satan!
11. Do not shop at the mall--only WalMart, JC Penny catalog, Lands End catalog & Sears
12. Do not go more than one week without annointing yourself, and your home, and your family, with epsom salt (satan hates epsom salt)

Howdy Neighbor! How'd the house prep for sale go?

T-man says:

howdy, howdy I haven't started on the house yet, but think I have the roof figured out such that it won't take nearly the effort I was expecting. Had a great show here at the warehouse tonight was why I wasn't here to answer. Been trying to build a power tool for the new Google API.

Steve says:

Cool. I've heard others mention the Google interface recently, as if it were the new holy grail, so to speak. & it looks like most of the storms have bypassed your locale for the time, which is also good.

T-man says:

yeah, it is a slow rain mostly. 2nd annual 4-20 blowout. Insane day.

The reason the google api is the latest rage, it's the first seriously useful web service, and it's free for any individual. 1000 method calls a day, each with max on any licence, 10 search items max on any call. 2 billion web documents, with suggestSpelling, and getArchived that returns base64 encoded.

Variables

The body of the for-each is a template, like the body of xsl:template each
time you go round the loop the template body is instantiated again and you get a
new variable called here, its scope ends at the end of that template body, ie
effectively you get a new variable created and discarded each time round the
loop.

Note this is completely different from the use of variables in loops in
procedural languages where the _same_ variable survives throughout the loop,
carrying state information (like how many times the loop has been executed).

The "variable value can't change" mantra refers to the fact that there is not
an analogue of x=x+1 which some people, corrupted by procedural languages seem
to feel is a natural thing to write, whereas it is obviously an affront to the
laws of nature, unless x happens to be 0:-)
