To order a satisfactory Starbucks coffee: cafe latte, low foam, at 140 degrees, thanks.

Imagine a photo of a middle aged dog looking after a sick niece. In block letters at the bottom it says “I have no idea what I’m doing”

This week’s Doctor Who is really dark, it’s about ethics in gaming journalism.

American Halloween us terrifying. Kids on a sugar high running around on the road.

Wow! American nieces are way excited by Halloween this is primarily expressed with noise.

I’m good, thanks all the same.

I am in a Boston bar watching the decider in a sport I don’t understand and I’m loving it. Also yum.

Curious, disabling JavaScript unbreaks Taco Bell‘s breaking of the web.

They really know how to internets.

Hi Boston.

My hotel is very you.

Special shoutout to 6am flights, crashing Uber apps & airports that don’t sell espresso

Surprised this doesn’t work as I expected

CSS is fun.

Git users at the #wcsf contributor day, there’s a list of official git repo mirrors on the make blog #wcsf14

Upstairs is filling for State of the Word with @photomatt. #wcsf

Without Molly Holzschlag‘s work in the day #wcsf & the web wouldn’t be what they are today, help with her medical bills

A lot of typos in WordPress & plugins are discovered during the translation process- @nacin #wcsf

Pitch idea for freelancers the San Francisco Fire Department site could do with some work. #wcsf

RT Jenny Wong: Hello Australia #wcsf

Loitering outsiders due to fire alarm at #wcsf. Feel for the organisers.

Hurtling around the world in a metal tube is definitely off-spec. 5pm seems a long way away.

MEL > LAX > SFO

What’s good games wise for iOS on the plane? I liked trainyard & other puzzle type things.

Release lunch

That’s fun, the SUIT CSS naming convention & Microformats 2 clash on u- prefix.

s/u-/util-/g in suit is still better than ad hoc naming.

Some excellent podcast tips, thanks, huffduffing heaps. https://huffduffer.com/peterwilsoncc

Looking to sample the best episodes of a variety of podcasts on the flight to San Francisco. Any tips would be appreciated.

@instagram I think you’re a lovely company full of lovely people.

BTW, I would love to be able to post photos to my account via the API.

By this time three years ago I’d already have smoked half a pack of cigarettes today. How things change.

Teeth. $5.

A Yoast upgrade that’s right first time is like hearing noises in an otherwise empty house.

Twitch

Three calls today from a UK number wanting to “activate” a domain purchase. Half tempted to engage to see what the scam is.

It astounds me when I see ‘not all men’ comments. I thought we all understood that it is, however, almost always men.

@thebabydino Starting to for maintaining vertical rhythm using pixel width borders & with fixed width sidebars.

 

When singing, Toby & I are basically indistinguishable from Justin Timberlake & Vanessa Marquez

Twenty minutes ago, my dropbox password was 4qV@4WbzEQw8Ds(NpEn9 – what was yours?

It’s true, brid.gy is indistinguishable from magic.

Have a new notes section on my site for keeping status updates off to the side.

WordPress question – is this right to detect the main feed?
