@marshallk Just saw a PBS documentary on Patagonia. Folks say we have like 5-10 yrs to set areas aside for conservation. Fisheries? Yikes!

I needed a term. I planned to tweet a Q; I had a thot that fell between 2 taxons. I didn’t have a term. For lack of it, I forgot the thot.
#
@lachlanhardy Was reading on "ponzi" FaceBook apps; they require you to "invite" 5 friends to see the results. Wicked/evuhl.

@guykawasaki You know, I studied ethology. Started w/crows; seduced by foxes. A lovely item, truly. Yet really: you should start @truemors

#
@photomatt Everything Gates knows he cudda learned from AT&T … I just tweeted about "oligarchs". (You don’t follow me; so sad.)
#
@yourdon Thanks Ed, I appreciate that. *Dons wiki-gnome helmet and strikes carbide lamp.* I look forward to connecting.

I /totally /love// being able to throttle multi-feed stream via !Pipes … just like multi-track recording. Sentience 101.

At 18 I was tracking Soviet subs, copying traffic from their bombers, and hacking their birds. At 53? "Web2.0" … how tedious.

@Furrier heh "distributed middle" strikes again! /All/ are great VS "dime a dozen". AFAIK some are key, a few are revolutionary [...]

I add "truncate 5" but get a full stream. I changed it to "truncate 2" and *ting* get 2 posts in the stream. #braindamaged #toyz

Wunnerful - been chasing my tail with item.dc:date; turns out Yahoo!Pipes transforms it to item.pubDate. No reason. Dunno where/why. meh!
#
@acarvin I hear the white vote was pret’near a 3-way split.
#
Confirmed: Yahoo!Pipes processes are #braindamaged with latency; I rejig things for 48 posts … the RSS still shows 4, from last version.
#
@acarvin How often do we really ever have a chance to actually fail? I mean to play a big game, flat-out, and fall short. /Serious/ downer.
#
"Badly formed response; failed to Save" Geee, thanks Pipes! … for a moment there I thought I was gonna get something done.

Real IDE VS toyz: a real IDE doesn’t choke and discard your changes. Yahoo!Pipes is refusing to Save after a complex mod. Arse, totally.

#
7.1B … was that EU or US$? my my my, nice to know banks have intelligently implemented BPM. Nothing for me to do, nope nope.
#
NBT? D&D that allows macros. (Not a chance; no need, with toyz. FWIW I used WP5.1 and AWK in MIL-SPEC R&D *sez the aulde drunk*.)
#
What a waste of space CA is. 18 minutes ago I had 15 feeds filtered. Now "Fetch Feed" fails. Yaaaa right. Fuckers are eating sushi in caf’.
#
Things CA are like dealing with over-bred poodles. "Water bowl" … "Bowl", "Water", join! Yesss, gooood yuppie!
#
Pipes! output Preview fails. Reinstall each and every single feed. All good! *clap hands, scratch ass, wipe nose, repeat*
#
NB: if Yahoo!Pipes HQ is in OR then all is forgiven … I know anarcho-geeks are unreliable, but I’d trust them w/my life. (cliff climb?)
#
Q; is software /in any sense/ fractal? *Warning - this is a trick quiestion.*
#
All functions Fail. When I was young, I’d spend Fri. night producing $20K-$50K of IT. Now, with toyz, waste my fucking time. Grande?
#
p.s. do 7 man/years work in 2.5 yrs … do the arithmuhtik
#
RFE: zoom out in Pipes! Because everything’s gone to shit, I need to go from Input 1 to Output. Can’t … too big. #toyz
#
Time for TV. 1st London Review of Books was swamping other feeds. Now? 0 output, though it validats. I fucking hate the industry.
#
Problem found: the pipe is fine … the DeBug output is bullshit. *clap hands; scratch ass; wipe nose; repeat*
#
!Funny: step by step I have to ignore "Preview Failed" in DeBug output. I peek the feed, and step by step, better. Someone got $$ for toyz
#
