Note #7347

@addyosmani is on the right and @benjaminbenben is on the left… but their pictures are the other way around. Aaarrgh! #RenderConf

Good morning, #RenderConf! Thanks for a great quiz last night (shout out to my boys in HTTP 418) and for the subsequent hangover!

@DataGenetics did a nice piece on Lychrel Numbers – https://t.co/4MCoRFXogC. I wonder how they differ in non-decimal bases?

@misterjta, @fleeblewidget and I ALL thought it was our turn to order wine. 40 bottles just turned up. #whoopsdrunk http://t.co/5cxomwaEvg

@OxfordBusCo issued an impossible ticket (2A doesn’t even GO to Spires) and I couldn’t return! How do I get a refund? http://t.co/NxenUySB9w

@ricmoo Looks like the RSS feed on 0x2121 has been very broken for… a while. Hadn’t noticed that my RSS reader was complaining until now.

@mccarthy_liz on computers not doing what she expected: “I wish that computer weren’t so inanimate… and could feel shame.”

Cosmo: Westeros Edition sex tip: grab your man, pull him close, whisper “the Lannisters send their regards” and stab him in the heart.

@misterjta: “It must be really strange, being a duck: jumping into the water not knowing if this time you might sink.” #DuckExistentialAngst

RT @jennyberryacevo Clear outline of the DPA by Dan @3RingsLtd in Manchester this afternoon, good to see engaged volunteers.

@pickettywitch @paganwandererlu Belated congratulations, both! (News of Arianwen’s arrival came slowly through the gossip circuit; sorry!)

I once dated a woman who tried different horoscopes for her sign (teletext, web, newspaper…) until she found one she liked.

I used to think it was crazy. But eventually I came to realise it’s no crazier than astrology is to begin with.

Memo: when using wget to mirror a website, remember to set the bounds. Last night, I accidentally downloaded 1769 websites.

Yesterday’s jaunt with @BrynS wasn’t QUITE my fill of comedy. So tonight, I’m off to the @CamdenHead in Angel for their open mic night.
