anildash
http://twitter.com/anildash I looked him up when codinghorror left this message: http://twitter.com/codinghorror/statuses/1287709496 but I decided to follow him based on this quote: http://dashes.com/anil/2009/02/you-didnt-miss-anything.html So, it's not exactly the most profound observation, and I'm far from the first to make it, but it's worth noting again: There isn't that much going on. While the constant flow of information is entertaining and addictive, it is, by overwhelming consensus, primarily filled with bits that are of little to no value. I'm recording this as much for my own future reference as for anyone else's. followed: 3-6-09

huffpost
http://twitter.com/huffpost Honestly, I have only visited the huffingtonpost.com once, I thought the article was crap, but the comments were good (not good enough to visit again though). But I came across this Twitter account while reading #nerdpickuplines and thought some of the comments are interesting, so we will see if I keep following them alot of times the Huffpost feed cuts off, so you lose the link, well if you go to http://www.huffingtonpost.com/twitter/ then you can find the full link followed: 2-7-09 update 3-24-09: they changed their name to huffingtonpost, so I am following that one no w, and no longer follow huffpost unfollowed: 10-10-12 -- I would get excited there is something new in my twitter feed only to see some crap huffington post story that would take like 20 seconds to load if I clicked on the link, very high noise, very low signal

rebuilding the db schema #symfony #learned
1 - update config/schema.yml 2 - "php symfony propel:build-sql" from the command line, that will build the correct propel crap from the schema.yml 3 - now, here you should be able to just run "php symfony propel:insert-sql" but I always get a [wrapped: invalid data source name] error that I have no idea what it means, so you can also do: > mysqladmin -u root -p create DB_NAME > mysql -u root -p DB_NAME < data/sql/lib.model.schema.sql obviously you don't have to do the "mysqladmin" command if you have already created the db, and you don't have to worry about the -p (password) if your localhost root has no password. You can also open the XAMPP phpAdmin and import the lib.model.schema.sql file into your db that way. 4 - then, if you changed your schema you will want your model bases to reflect the change, so delete the cache (delete everything in the cache folder) and then run: "php symfony propel:build-all" to rebuild everything, the documentation says to use "php symfony propel:build-model" but that doesn't redo all the base* classes of the model I got all this from the middle and bottomish part of http://www.symfony-project.org/book/1_2/08-Inside-the-Model-Layer propel:data-load in ch16 will also let you import data from a text file, to populate your db To just rebuild the sql and the classes: php symfony propel:build-sql php symfony propel:build-all --classes-only

As companies get bigger, they slow down decision making, and that’s a big problem.”" via: http://bits.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/09/27/googles-biggest-threat-is-google/?smid=tw-nytimesbits&seid=nickbilton via: http://twitter.com/timoreilly/statuses/118841534857752576
