the end of content maybe I'll just publish these stupid little "blogthings" from now on.
| You Have Fantastic Karma |
And all your good deeds will pay off - if they haven't already. But you're not so concerned with what you get in return anyway. You have an innate caring nature - and nothing can change that! |

Phone-B-Gone
Apparently cellphone use while driving is on the rise. With all the news stories over the last several years highlighting the dangers of "driving while phoned" you'd think people would get it by now: Don't Talk And Drive! <sarcasm>Of course, these dangers only apply to others.</sarcasm> Did you hear about TV-B-Gone? I want the same thing for cellphones. The next time I see you driving, with a phone stuck to your face, I want to be able to turn the darned thing off *for you*.

forelse
I was just reading about Javascript Templates when I noticed a cool bit of syntax:
{for p in products}
...
{forelse}
...
{/for}
I really like forelse, it's something I've always wanted but didn't know what to ask for. I run into this a lot:
if (collection.size() > 0) {
for ( /* iterate */ ) {
// loop logic
}
} else {
// do something else if array is empty
}
I know there is little hope of getting this added to plain Java, but this would be a great thing for Groovy (if it doesn't already have it). What about other languages? Does Ruby/Python/others have it? I don't recall ever seeing this in Perl or Obj-C, but maybe I just overlooked it?
Note: Bloglines stripped the style="white-space:pre" from my code tags, you're RSS reader might (should) do the same. Sanitized For Your Protection.

Re: The Contribution Society
I've got some thoughts on this, versus the Ownership Society, but they haven't gelled yet. So far I just have some ramblings, some holier-than-thou ranting, that doesn't really say anything, nor give an honest portrayal of my self or my thoughts. Am I brave enough to publish them?

take charge
Inside the top of the Jones Soda I just opened it says ?Take Charge of Your Life and Decisions.? I?m wondering whether doing this is compatible with accepting advice from a soft-drink bottle. [Crooked Timber]
Reminds me of the old Zuba billboards (man, that was a long time ago), which showed a pair of those wickedly striped pants and said "Be Different"; to which I always wanted to add "like everybody else".

What Mood Are You In?

Today, you're feeling pretty together and happy. While not everything is going you're way, you're keeping things in perspective. And it seems like things are looking up for you! |
