A grammatical challenge! The sign is a directive not a descriptor.

(Jumpy Dog smashes through sign)

Though it could be a descriptor especially given multiple definitions of “slow.”

Pseudorandom puttering last night and I have the #Statamic iteration of my site running locally again. More than a little tempted to deploy it.

@mjgardner Kind of amusing to ponder what tags my brain settles on for the blog post. It’s a mix of surface impulse and “what’ll still be useful in 20 years?”

So brand names and current trends lose out to an implementation detail on the blog.

I poured and ignored a cup of coffee while writing this post. Left it right there on the kitchen counter.

Ah, still hot. Good.

This is part of why I generally drink from travel cups. That and the fact that I can be a very sloppy drinker.

@maineblaine No sync, or at least none that I’m aware of. Feedly is still handy for that context!

@emilygorcenski I mean yeah – goodness knows I’ve seen it – but at the same time a CGI guestbook script can write to a text file without an additional line entry on the invoice.

I know people are looking for all kinds of work, so I’ll share these #Seattle area openings from @IamMrsGeek at the union her organization works with. Call center jobs, jobs with fancy titles (anyone interested in Director - Data & IT?), etc. Neither of us have directly helpful info about details, but wanted to get the info out there.

@bjango Appreciate the alternate suggestion, but looks like ISO-8601-ish is unsupported:

@lordbowlich If Reddit didn’t exist, somebody would have found it necessary to invent it. Folks were already looking to overcome the complexities of ten thousand forums, and Reddit trotted along on a trail Digg laid out (which Digg made by following Fark and a couple others).
