Implementing pingback alone has already caused me more headaches than any other aspect of #taproot. WHY XMLRPC, HIXIE?

Finished reading Steve Jobs, The man who thought different by Karen Blumenthal.
A nice summary of Steve’s life, with some interesting details I’d not come across before. The technical mistakes were a let–down, and the language was patronising at times (e.g. explaining what “profit” meant).
seb_ly gotta love F# phrygian!
Woah, pinocc.io looks like a dream come true. I can’t wait to start linking musical instruments up to the IoT.

From Steve Jobs, The man who thought different:

Just because the book is not intended for a technical audience does not excuse blatant mistakes. If anything, it makes accuracy more important.
Checked into the Steam Packet Inn, Totnes for the neo folk session
aral I find I go in similar “abstraction loops” for many things. Start off basic → try out an abstraction → try out a higher abstraction → and another → get tired of abstractions, return to the original/something similar. The process always informs me in useful ways, however horrible the intermediate results are ;)
Take-away from HMV’s voucher refusal: I am never buying shop-specific vouchers.
After seeing the term “opaque” used frequently but no canonical definition provided, I asked the #indieweb IRC channel and came up with this: http://indiewebcamp.com/opaque
laurakalbag they add significant value to conversations, as they provide a recognisable visual indication of who is speaking and where each comment starts/ends. I am inclined against comments, but would recommend having avatars if you do :)
Any #indieweb people going to www2013.org? The Microposts Workshop looks like it might be quite interesting. #www2013
In the evening () I’m off to a neo-folk session at the Steam Packet Inn, Totnes, with Robin from #buzz and some other musicians. Come along if you’re interested in playing trad/new trad/new medieval tunes!
Just getting the latest #buzz rehearsal started! We’re practising for our next gig at St. Mary’s church
