A Day in the Life of Dorian for 2009-12-16

  • E-mails to write, people to annoy and data-devouring scripts to release on an unsuspecting world. Just another day at work. #
  • Hmm… Should I? I probably should. When? Now is probably a good time as any. Name? Working on that now. Rough idea of what I want to do… #
  • #sourceforge please let me set up my e-mail properly. Please. #
  • Hurrah got another “vanity” #sourceforge e-mail working. Excellent. Now to respond to potential #justCheckers devs. #

  • Hurrah. Quick hack almost ready for release. #
  • Wow. #Facebook privacy controls are open to all by default? Talk about bad default settings. Remember to audit your #Facebook content. #
  • Oops. I just found out that a bunch of people responded to my call for help with #justcheckers. Damn #gmail spam filters. #
  • Another great #shotofjaq episode. Love the idea of buying service from a technically adept #ISP. Most of those are way too expensive. 🙁 #
  • To speak like yoda I plan on learning how: http://www.yodaspeak.co.uk/index.php I know this, old for many of you, must be. Herh herh herh. #
  • Getting the hang of #PL/SQL. Coming to the tricky part of my stored procedure, a merge of sorts. How to select inside a conditional… #
  • Wishing a #lightondark theme for Windows XP along with something for PDFs and webpages, right about now. Eyes melting… #

  • My TODO list feels like it decided to grow during the weekend. Looks its time to take a whack at it again. #
  • So “Everybody” in #Facebook, means literally everyone, their pet dog and the all-seeing eye of #Google can access that bit of data. Nice. 🙁 #
  • @xopher Tried using qtgtkengines (forgot the exactname) and something like QtCurve theme for #gtk and #qt? !kde !ubuntu #
  • Still RTFMing the #Oracle #database manual for app devs. Almost done. Might change my opinion about #Oracle 10g. Ask me again in 2 days. #
  • When in doubt, and if you can get away it… Pull a Godzilla and pretend not to notice the swath of destruction you just laid down. #

  • @jonobacon Great work on #shotofjaq! I think you guys have found a great format. Almost like a mini-#lugradio, more refined but still fun. #
  • Hmm… Caught up on e-mails yesterday. Is it a chance to start something new? I’ll see after I get this Oracle merge working. 😛 #
  • Hmm… I feel like there is no such thing as too much sleep. Or at least no such rule for me. 🙂 #
  • Alright the admin stuff for #justCheckers is done. Now accepting interested !Java developers. I plan on fixing the game engine first. #

  • First snowy morning. Drivers fail to drive well in snow. Free breakfast was great. Thanks. Epic battle with data migration continues. #
  • !kde, !vim and konsole user at home. g!vim at work. #
  • Correction not !konsole but rather !yakauke… even though thats more or less the same thing once you get past the presentation layer. 😀 #
  • Nice! One task less… Still… damn Oracle merge. Do I really have to delve into stored procedures to get my work done?!? #

  • Good morning all. Looks like another ugh day involving data migration. And here I thought I was a developer, not a DBA. #
  • Nice. I got my Amazon wishlist setup. Now any interested Santas know what to buy for me. 🙂 #
  • Lunch is in order now. Never enjoyed mucking around in SQL, especially with a crazily constructed data model. #
  • Ugh. Work with me, SQL, work with me. #
  • We’ll try again tomorrow. Got other stuff to deal with now. #

What’s Next?

The weekend turned out hectic but productive enough.  I enjoyed the company Christmas party on Saturday night.  Great venue, pretty fun, love the concept of an open bar. 😛 This morning marks the start of a hectic week, which I hope will mean my finally catching up on all my overdo communications and organizational work.  At work it looks like a lot of loose ends need tying.  And a certain client is being demanding again…  So this week will be “fun”.

Still… last week saw my catching up on many things.  Hopefully we’ll have a repeat this week, only less stressful and more productive. 🙂

  • There we go… Goodbye all you robots. I mean I love robots. But I couldn’t care less for spam. The two don’t mix well anyways. #
  • Hmm… Funny how quickly things get done if you set your mind to it. Now on to those few last straggling tasks. #
  • Nice. Looks like I’ll be using a lot more of Wireshark for debugging web applications. Ow. Delving into another app’s code to fix my app. #
