The service is restored. Thus I can get back to my not-porn browsing.

Lazy and dumb programmers. This is a good thing, apparently, for given values of lazy and dumb.

Discussion on the latest from Neo-Con Reality. I'd say his numbers are a little bit low, too. Perhaps the peace movement needs to adopt a new tactic - play lots and lots of salsa music. Maybe if we're all stepping to the beats, we'll stop trying to beat down the steppes. It can't hurt more than the ribbon campaign for more ribbons.

Also, you get to see the video of the person who has the world's worst job. No, not the guy who's being the world's worst AT his job (we note the approval rating falling faster than precision-guided missile bombs), the guy who has the world's worst job. There is, indeed, a difference. These guys are (mostly) harmless. Unlike, say, this one.

Truth is, I didn't actually do a whole lot while my stuff was on the fritz. So I suppose I'll just have to catch up a bit. Although tomorrow I may be burning a considerable amount of time ensuring that things work out properly for my organization as I find out we're one shy of a needed object. Hopefully, my beginner art skills will be equal to the task of making a good copy.

Lazy and dumb programmers.
I prefer the way Larry Wall put it originally: the Three Great Virtues of a Programmer are Laziness, Impatience and Hubris. Various perl books expand on these with this example from the Camel Book (http://www.netropolis.org/hash/perl/virtue.html) being typical.
