Not your ordinary (Lisp|Clojure) bear

[Doug South @ideally_world]

So, at 58 I was *JUST* diagnosed with Inattentive ADHD...

Life now makes more sense and absolutely no sense all at the same time.

[Doug South @ideally_world]

Is this thing still on?....

[Doug South @ideally_world]

Your http request is important to us...

[Doug South @ideally_world]

@Steve_Hayes Sorry, it sounded like you said consultant there for a moment

[Doug South @ideally_world]

Feels like we are neck and neck at the moment...

[Doug South @ideally_world]

I was barely coping from day to day before all this brown smelly stuff hit the round spinny thing (because health). Not sure how long I can keep this up, but then I have no choice.

Really hoping social order doesn't collapse before I do... ;)

[Doug South @ideally_world]

@Steve_Hayes Feels like an opportunity here. I'll happily aggressively demand people not do something they really don't want to do for a fee. Then they can just point at me and shrug off all responsibility and I get a better bank balance.

@Steve_Hayes Just incremented dad humour. For those that don't know, it's a dad but joke off by one...

[Doug South @ideally_world]

@tastapod Really out of the tech loop, but from memory technically regular expression matching and look ahead are mutually exclusive. I could be wrong but regex with look ahead is a bastardized Frankenstein's monster...

[Doug South @ideally_world]

@paulcolton Thanks. Hope all is well your end too.

[Doug South @ideally_world]

@paulcolton do you remember asking some Australian guy to write a servlet parser for you then while you were doing this you asked him about writing a CFML parser?

-- some guy from Australia ;)

[Doug South @ideally_world]

So many memories....

This month we finally end-of-life EditLive!, a Java Applet that helped to build @joinTiny (then called Ephox). I just checked, & we booked.... $60M in sales over its life 🤯

Our principal architect, Dylan Just, wrote a lovely eulogy. R.I.P. EditLive!

[Doug South @ideally_world]

OK, I'm going to stop doing this before I start feeling sad...

[Doug South @ideally_world]

Trolling back through my twitter timeline is like reminiscing about a past life. My life is so far removed from what it used to be, hard to remember half of what I was on about. And impressed that I was able to do what I did.

The most valuable thing you have is your health.

Paraphrasing my favorite quote:

All models are wrong. Some models are useful.

[Doug South @ideally_world]

All comments are lies...

Some comments are useful...

[Doug South @ideally_world]

I miss that life...

[Doug South @ideally_world]

when I code, I want facts

when I live, I want heart

[Doug South @ideally_world]

@bron415 ahh... Hello?

[Doug South @ideally_world]

@west_greg Watched the @iRacing video and thought that name sounds familiar. Then I went back and checked my old races. Ah, yeah, definitely had a great race against that guy (at least for 49 laps... :/)...
