It’s been a while since I’ve posted any photos, mostly because (a) I really wanted to re-do the photo software behind my web site, but (b) I’m too lazy to do that.
Ergo, I’ve decided to just start using Flickr.

All you hear about in the news is “the housing crisis” and “the housing crisis is going to cause a recession.”
Can we please have a little of that here in Silicon Valley? Average house prices are only $150,000 more than they were a year ago. Crisis! Crisis!
I was over at my boss’ house with another developer. They were crying because they saw a comment I’d left in the software that suggested that it might be a good idea to re-think how were we doing something. They said “Do you know how much work I’ve put into that code?”
I started to say that I only wanted to leave a reminder to myself to think about other ways of doing things, but hey started crying harder. I said “I’m not going to try and argue with you when all you do is cry at me” and I left.
Then my boss’ house burnt down.
As the firemen were hosing it down, I mentioned “Isn’t it funny how your house always burns down whenever we have an argument?” That’s when I woke up because I had to pee.
Quick Summary: If you’re ever designing a web-based tool and you decide to use anything other than an email address as your customers’ login ID, then you deserve to be hunted down and ground up into something that will fertilize plants.
