@hober: What's the deal with the crazy spergitude on the @nodejs list today?
@hober: @googlereader yay! That's one feature I've been missing this whole time.
@hober: @evilsteevil congrats! :)
@hober: The new AT&T data plans make a lot of sense. @kirinqueen and I are each in the ~300MB/mo range, so we'll save $10/mo by switching. #iphone
@hober: Got my @googlereader patch in the mail last night. Yay! It'll go on the same jacket as my @SpaceUpConf and @SpaceTweeps patches.
@hober: @lukemysse @alanthonyc OK, it's on!
@hober: @enkrates no, but adjusting their plans to save about 98% of their customers money seems like good business sense to me.
@hober: @toddgrotenhuis nope, the @googlereader team actually had them made: http://hbr.me/T6hpsj
@hober: @dckc congratulations on your new position, and thanks for all the hard work at @w3c over the years! http://bit.ly/brmKzK
@hober: @lukemysse that is indeed a tasty beer. Had it this weekend at @StoneBrewingCo.
@hober: So, when can we expect some kind of awesome @tabebbq v. @mihogastrotruck throw-down?
@hober: Amazon's got The Wire for $89. Yes, the whole thing. Awesome. http://amzn.to/9BbLXW
@hober: This morning's lesson: turn off the sonicare *before* removing from mouth.
@hober: @markdr nice, congrats! @kirinqueen and I recently became homeowners too.
@hober: Looking forward to hitting @ElTakeItEasy with @kirinqueen tonight.
@hober: Seen in the source of @rtomayko's site: <meta http-equiv='X-UA-Compatible' content='YOUR MOM'>
@hober: @trochee awesome! Tell @rion that @kirinqueen and I say hi!
@hober: Wow, the pork belly tacos at @ElTakeItEasy are fantastic.
@hober: LIFTOFF!
@hober: So happy to see the stage sep went well. Many congrats to the crew at SpaceX!
@hober: RT @Spacevidcast: Falcon 9 SECO-1... THEY HAVE EARTH ORBIT! YEEEEEEEAAAAAAAHHHHH!
@hober: @lukemysse I guess you missed the subtlety of my reply :)
@hober: @BCHigh congrats to Mr. Donaher on 50 years of teaching. He's an amazing guy.
@hober: Unexpected yet apparently scheduled power outage in our small part of town. Good thing we have bike lights.
@hober: Lovely lunch at @MIHOgastrotruck w/ @kirinqueen and @mokolabs. The cochinita pibil tacos are simply amazing. Now at Station for drinkipoos.
@hober: Bummed to be missing #txjs, but this is a much-needed down weekend.
@hober: RT @cleverknits: anyone interested in Stitch N Pitch, Sunday July 18 Padres vs Diamondbacks? Tix are just $16, and I'm taking names!
@hober: Lovely bike ride to @nicbenders' going away party with @kirinqueen and @mokolabs. Afterpartying at @BlindLadyAle.
@hober: Dear Old Navy: thank you for making dresses with pockets. I think @kirinqueen has just found her sexy summer uniform.
@hober: @slicknet git-svn means never having to say "merge pain."
@hober: Stop it with the social media douchebaggery already. You'll be happier, I'll be happier. Everyone wins.
@hober: @technomancy Keep in mind that Sulu was explicitly written as a pan-Asian character—Hikaru wasn't established as his given name until later.
@hober: @technomancy whereas Mr. Miyagi is flagrantly Nipponese, so what gives? That said, I'm a big Jackie Chan fan.
@hober: I guess I'm a clue-o-phile. You're clueful? We'll likely get along. Low on clue? I should probably pass on talking to you.
@hober: Tried to buy a first edition Varley today but didn't have a dollar. Hoping it's still there tomorrow. #iadorejohnvarleyandimnotashamed
@hober: 66 years ago a pile of stupendous badasses helped make the world safe for YouTube, Facebook, and whatever site you're into. Think about it.
@hober: I really liked Safari's Reader feature when it was called the Readability bookmarklet, and worked in all browsers.
@hober: Instead of using templates to create transient HTML from your permanent content, infuse contingent markup into your permanent HTML. #longnow
@hober: The idea of @t's CASSIS—to use the same lang server- & browser-side—is right on. But the lang we should use is simply JavaScript. #nodejs
@hober: How am I the only person who's listed "sperg" on @wordnik?
@hober: @textfiles yeah, pumps rule. #iddm
@hober: RT @djangosd: We're meeting tonight at @cukertweet's office in Solana Beach w/ pints at @PizzaPortBeer afterwards: http://djangosd.jotti ...
@hober: The Sons of Sam squeak one in! Thanks, Green! #USA
@hober: Wow, Nava hits a grand slam on the first pitch of his first major league at-bat. Go Sox! That plus draw w/ #eng makes for a lovely day! :)
@hober: The smell of caramelized onions is filling the house. They're to go on top of @kirinqueen's bulgogi burgers, which I'm grilling later. Nom.
@hober: Sitting on the front patio at @ElTakeItEasy, watching North Park go by with @kirinqueen.
@hober: RT @Modernizr: If you'd like to see Modernizr on the google ajax CDN, ☆STAR☆ (but do not comment) this ticket http://j.mp/a7cnGU
@hober: @eleddy jeez. Hope you have a speedy recovery!
@hober: Villard Anderson—grandfather of @kirinqueen, WWII B-17 pilot, &c.—passed away this morning. He'll be missed by all who knew him. RIP Papa.
@hober: Hmm, when Dad actually says "thanks for calling," it's probably been too long. On the plus side, his surgery went well. #sonfail
@hober: Hey, wait, @melissatruth, are you on this @NASA boat? http://go.usa.gov/3o1
@hober: Just checked the date: it's not the fifth of May. That's funny, because I could have sworn #mex whooped #fra today...
@hober: @emp sounds like a great plan! :)
@hober: @lukemysse will try to figure out when @kirinqueen and I can hit up @HavenGastropub with you. We'll be in Fullerton some of this weekend...
@hober: All the best to @adaction & the rest at @clearleft on 5 years of awesome. Maybe someday @kirinqueen and I will make it to Brighton to visit!
@hober: Err, @adactio that is. Silly typos.
@hober: What's up with "[with] best regards" as an email valediction? It sounds somewhat hinky to this AmE-speaker.
@hober: @maradydd yeah, I'm pretty sure that, most of the times I've seen it, it's been non-native English speakers.
@hober: RT @SurvivingGrady: My booing criteria: Did the player punch my mother? Did he join the Yankees? Manny did neither plus helped us win 2 ...
@hober: Quick, San Diego, hook a brother up. What's the number to text to get into the noble experiment? Kisses, Ted & Erin
@hober: RT @xpre552: The England team visited an orphanage in Cape Town today. "It's heartbreaking to see their sad little faces with no hope" s ...
@hober: @JesseSClark awesome! Can't wait to check the place out!
@hober: Contemplating putting together a @node_knockout team. Any SD peeps interested?
@hober: @jennyjenjen what's your new gig?
@hober: @KuraFire that is completely hysterical.
@hober: Several emails from microsoft.com addresses to @WHATWG lists today. Has the fifth major browser vendor decided to get involved with @WHATWG?
@hober: Not only will IE9 support <canvas>, it'll also support WOFF for @font-face, *as well as raw TTF & OTF files*. Wow!
@hober: @hopcentric oh man, I haven't been to @CambridgeBrewer in ages. Decent spot. Have you made it to @redbones yet? #homesick
@hober: @jedsundwall why not just use the bookmarklet?
@hober: Having trouble remembering some nights after a few too many 30th Sts.? @GreenFlashBeer's new Citra session ale might be for you! Yummy.
@hober: @cameo That sucks! I hope you get better right quick.
@hober: @drluckyspin we're all looking forward to it!
@hober: @FM949sd I've been meaning to ask: does somebody request Fugazi's Waiting Room every afternoon? I hear it on almost every evening commute.
@hober: RT @KuraFire: Phrases that shouldn't exist on the web: - Read more after the jump - Skip this ad - Remember me on this computer - Page ...
@hober: @orangewolf sorry, I'll be downtown w/ @drluckyspin et al.
@hober: We are all suckers because we don't fry everything all the time. #fairfacts
@hober: @amblass awesome! I always complain about that when at the pharmacy with @kirinqueen. It's all 97s and 103s. Where are the 34s & 307s?
@hober: OH in the @emacs IRC channel: At least mail has an RFC. Blogs just have 'various objections to Dave Winer.'
@hober: So, jokes aside, what do you think Knuth is going to announce?
@hober: "Therefore, the HTML Working Group hereby adopts the Change Proposal to keep the details element." Yay!
@hober: @patrickdlogan X.500 (aaahhHhhhh! run away!)
@hober: @miketaylr We should have advocated renaming <details> <tldr>.
@hober: Knuth better not be taking the piss.
Ampersand Love
