Any insufficiently organized code is indistinguishable from magic.

Buried deep in somebody’s hybrid Ember/Angular app. Missing the clear intent and solid organization of Perl.

Wait. Did I just see access control rules defined in client side code? That’s - huh. That’s trusting.

It is our duty as addicts to make sure there is always coffee in the office.

OMG I loaded a thing! Correctly! And it only took a week to figure out! See, JavaScript frameworks are easy! Also, exclamation points!

Nope. Still an idiot. Ah, the rollercoaster of developer self-esteem.

Okay now I’m just throwing random plausible code chunks in hopes that something sticks.

What? An exception? But I didn’t … ah jeez. Why couldn’t I have been an alcoholic? Then I would know what to do in this situation.

I will now play “Licensed to Ill” very loud. Then I will play “Swass.” If you need my attention, too bad.

It’s tricky to code a line to code a line that passes tests first time that’s right it’s tricky.

“No no no! You’re too young to be unmaintainable legacy code! Where did you learn language like this?”

“I LEARNED IT FROM YOU!”

I need to do good things today to make up for the terrible things I’ve written this morning.

I did it! The test passes! The feature works!

Looks at code

Let us never speak of this again.

YOU CAN’T THROW ME TO THE LIONS. I’M CHARLTON HESTON!

I wear my headphones for you, friends and neighbors.

Who’s ambivalent about JavaScript, CoffeeScript, GUIs, and is trying out the @AtomEditor?

This guy. Me.

Thanks to @matthewhughes. I think.

Sometimes there’s only so much that autocorrect can do for you.

“@jonathanpenn: So, goto fail was ported to Linux.

http://arstechnica.com/security/2014/03/critical-crypto-bug-leaves-linux-hundreds-of-apps-open-to-eavesdropping/

” many eyes make all bugs shallow. Except security, which is hard.

The GnuTLS vulnerability was discovered years ago. It’s just that nobody could agree on a license for its replacement.

So much rain. I’m waiting for a noir-ish voiceover.

Twitter: 2014-03-04 Tue 19:21

I feel better now, or at least thematically appropriate.

Started reading The Broken Kingdoms by NK Jemisin a couple hours ago. About halfway through. Want to finish but going a bit cross-eyed.
