Put my soul in script
My creation comes online
Joins. Says I am gay
I just implemented MegaHAL in a Perl IRC-bot. It went online, and after a few minutes pointed out my sexual preferences among other things. Never nurse a MegaHAL bot — it will bite your hand off.
Seemingly surprised
Hypocrisy of the nose
Hiding smile so sweet
Every time I see the infernal “:o)” smiley of Hell, I am tricked to think that the user is surprised (from the “:o”), when they are in fact happy. I hate that nose. It also ruins the general view on face proportions — what if you are surprised and have a nose? “:oo”? “:o)”-users have something to explain.
That cosy feeling.
The open source. Open love.
It’s my revision.
I just contributed to an open source project for my first time, which means that I’m now officially a good person. It was WordPress that took my virginity, with bug #3282. Ok, I’m not the one who attached the patch — but I submitted the ticket, and I was trying to figure out how svn worked when a certain Mark Jaquith beat me to it.
Anyway, I suppose I learnt something. How svn works, that is. Oh, not to forget that a bug was fixed. Thanks to me! This made my day. Unfortunately it’s less than two hours left of it.
Stargate, Fleet Beacon
Build, select and attack-move
Protoss. Imbalanced.
Really. Not even an army of Scourge stand a chance against massed Protoss Carriers.
Logical system
The initial ecstasy
Prior frustration
I confess that I was indeed excited about counting my haikus in hexadecimal. It does seem logical, but it probably just confuses people (including myself). I spent some minutes converting the already written haikus to decimal. Those posts’ URLs will still contain the hexadecimal count, though. Changing URLs is never good.
Long instrumental
No matter how beautiful
Music needs lyrics
I don’t know what it is with 10-minute songs that contain long instrumental parts. Every group seems to have one, too. Why them? I’d much rather miss out on the commercial MTV musicians’ lyrics than on Edenbridge’s, Nightwish’s and Tristania’s.
Firefox users
You make a webmaster proud
I love statistics
I was looking through the statistics gathered by Goole Analytics for Timblog, and I was happy to see that Firefox has the largest market share: 48% against Internet Explorer’s 45%. Unfortunately, Windows still has 90% against Linux’s 5%.
Ten thousand million
They adapt to the stupid
Use powers of ten
I just read an article in Los Angeles Times about the creation of element 118. It describes that californium-249 was bombarded with “40,000,000,000,000,000,000″ calcium-48 ions. What’s so wrong with writing “4*1019“? As if people stupid enough not to understand a power of ten would read this article anyway.
IB kills my time
WP plugins are so cool
Need multitasking
It feels like all of my time goes to my IB studies right now. When am I supposed to write my WordPress plugins? I’ve got five plugin ideas in my to-do list right now. Perhaps I should write a to-do plugin.
Dreams are aestethic
Illogical, sub-concious
Not worthy of hex
I just made a very important decision: not to order the dreams in my dream log with hexadecimal. Everything looks so small in hex — just look at this haiku. #17. Actually, it’s the 24th haiku posted. Therefore, the dream count will be in decimal. Yes, my haikus are unimportant enough to write them about this.
