interesting class today, solved at least a few problems, worked out what some of the other background issues were

tennesseetech Cookeville: #PowerOutage planned 4-6 am Sun. Tech Village, SW Hall & Athletic Performance Center will be out, rest of campus will be fine.
@panic but think of all the people that were in the middle of ripping off the old one, they’ll have to start over now!
@iShBuu @Davids356 @seanpmassey the layers (and cake) are cool, as is the support from everyone @UnideskCorp.

NCWIT Can’t make it to #GHC13 next week? Facebook will be live-streaming the keynotes. More info here: bit.ly/19zQIO2
runningwhio Also, did everyone know it’s not Friday? How can it not be Friday? We’ve had so many days already. I am disappoint.
… Not really sure what my other options were, give up? Not 100% happy with the result, but it mostly worked#fbfb
Remembered ~80% of the code required to answer a question. Pull up the documentation, get asked approximately “is that what you do?” … #fb
@TheWonderbag ok, thanks for the info. Don’t have an immediate use, will see what happens.
@casey_dugan success!
scott_lowe OK, @kcase, stop teasing us about @OmniGraffle 6 and just ship it already!!
@TheWonderbag so that gets to my question, expecting to stock any other colors on amazon?
@TheWonderbag United States. To be a bit more specific, Tennessee.
@TheWonderbag any more color options coming? Would be interested in something in a solid.
just spilled less than 12 fl oz of Dr. Pepper. In a display of my special talents, spilled it in 3 different rooms. #fb

@meyerweb sorry it has to have such a personal connection for you, but thanks for the reminder, did a togo order to make a contribution
so getting the larger drink before class is rendered useless when you don’t slow down talking long enough to drink any of it. #fb
I don’t think I’ve talked that fast in class in a long time. #fb
(background for last tweet) Students were not fans of watching me type in fully tested code, the process has value.
Many years ago I stopped writing out code examples before class. This may be the semester the pre-written examples come back.

@elbrownmcne but while we’re on the topic, does “makeover” imply “better” or just “different”?
@elbrownmcne I was just reporting on things, not voicing an opinion. Probably not a good person to judge makeover needs.

So Luke was just told he was @elbrownmcne with a makeover.
Thinking of South Park episode where the boys run off to be pirates while reading these #TalkLikeAPirateDay tweets. #FirstWorldProblems #fb

step 1) install iOS 7, step 2) [the important part] install @OmniFocus 2 for iPhone. So far happy with both!

jewelia Saw an ad in my FB feed for “Gilt on the iPhone”. Read it as “Git on the iPhone” then imagined breaking the build b/c of autocorrect.
@BrianTMcDonough so many replies… Should almost be a contest. :)
@kanadaj beyond @gunnarwb discussion, there’s also problems with on-campus vs off-campus & windows device vs non-win devices combinations
@kanadaj if you want the short version see the 2nd graphic in part 1.

So is there a #fixvda counter anywhere? Something along the lines of a “X hours and still no fix” deal?

@panic, on a more positive note, congrats on a great product

sometimes you have to say things that shouldn’t have to be said :( #fb
@kanadaj @mikestanley would also create a reason to keep a functioning device> 2 yr. Current scheme rewards needlessly upgrading.
@kanadaj @mikestanley ya, having the rate drop after you get to the end of the two years would be great…
@mikestanley ya, before VZW had the iPhone, had considered the same, just to avoid the junk and restrictions.
no automated marketing phone call should start off “The FBI…” #TweetCorrected #fb
Obviously assuming an adjustment in rates to match the removal of phone cost.
With current marketing trends, any chance we’ll move from financing our cell phones over two years to buying them outright any time soon?

@MattWillisDC … it would/could be for many more. A casual, welcoming environment that’s improving life and living, who wouldn’t want that.
@MattWillisDC at least I never saw it as one. Clearly it would be to some. If other aspects of the field were more inviting, suspect …
lesson learned this afternoon: reply twice to the same tweet, confuse the blue line.
@MattWillisDC … “I’m (draw to | jealous of) CS as a field because of the casualness” as very different things.
@MattWillisDC I guess the wording of it it. I see “one of the things I like about my field is the casualness of it” and …

@gunnarwb is it a bad sign that I now want that as a poster?
Starbucks In some cultures, having your name spelled incorrectly is a sign of good luck. #FridayThe13th pic.twitter.com/uqfgxpJTrC
singing “Hotel California” and doing the monthly #Unidesk layer updates. Seems fitting.
Also at lunch learned that the low bar for minimum acceptable attire in CS is an attractive aspect of the field to some. #fb
Found out today at lunch that once you have kids you can blame all kinds of things on them. #fb
Did everyone on campus get the 3:15 munchies? Line for Starbucks was to the door, line at abp in the library was only slightly better. #fb
