@drkknits Way to go!
@crumpet I never have.
@crumpet I mean, I’ve never declared my prescription medicine. I only declare purchases that are above the duty free threshold, I think.
Um, Jenny Kee friended me on Facebook. EEEEP!

Use Only as Directed | MetaFilter
Use Only as Directed | MetaFilter – Timely. This past Friday at Knit Camp, I could tell I was getting sick and feverish so I took a couple paracetamol in the evening. Then when I was helping hand out the champagne, Zena asked if I didn’t want one myself. I said, “I can’t have any, as I just took some paracetamol.” But she said that didn’t matter. So we went over to Sandra (a nurse PhD) for a second opinion. “Sandra,” I said, “Is it okay to have alcohol with paracetamol? I was always told that would destroy your liver.” “No, no,” she said chuckling. “The paracetamol is doing that anyway.” So yeah, as the TAL episode and the MetaFilter thread point out, Tylenol is a lot more dangerous than most people realise.

Dragging my phlegmy self to the doctor…
Bloody. Hell. Two antibiotics for cough, plus Rikodeine, PLUS antibiotic eye drops for my PINKEYE. Rodd says, “It’s probably lupus.”
@suzyhausfrau I reckon you did!
@mudsurfer Yeah, makes me a bit nauseated too. I’m only going to have it for sleep.
@phoebegoh @Bigcommerce So sorry I missed it! Got hit by my second cold of Spring. 🙁
RT @SerriLaw: Awesome night out learning the evils of tech debt, how huge the data-verse is and to embrace our soft skills at #ggdsyd !
Antibiotics consumed and squirted in my eye. Now waiting for codeine to kick in so I can hopefully sleep.

Why I was Wrong about Unit Testing – Part 1 – Unreasonability http://t.co/xvl2L12XSZ // Great post by one of my team devs
@zosainsbury TOTES. (Too bad you don’t sit near me anymore.)
@drwitty_knitter *raises hand*
@drwitty_knitter @mamabook Wait, does this mean I’m the IT support for the cave? DO NOT WANT.
@zosainsbury No idea. I got bored of sitting through the bits between Dean Geyer getting his kit off.
@chrisgander @zosainsbury Recently @venks79 said “abs muthafucken totes” to me in a Skype chat and I laughed and laughed.
Been fighting with Jira all afternoon. Annoyed that the answer that keeps coming up is “You’re doing Agile wrong. Change it.” GRRRR.
Ha! Thanks to @merrinmez for pointing out that I actually volunteered for #knitcamp in Oct 2011. Nearly two full years ago!
@brown_note My team uses story points not so much for estimation but as metric for tracking. Jira does not like this.
@brown_note The built-in reporting, I mean. So now I’m still exporting and reporting by hand.
RT @wollombiwool: Wow! We had such fun @ knit camp. Thank you #knitcamp
@brown_note Yes. We were using cards before quite happily, but after team discussion, thought Jira might make some things easier.
@brown_note Wiser people chuckled ruefully at me. Now I know why.
@mikeefreedom More or less. Examples: https://t.co/Ks1qnwebJ4 https://t.co/FS1JAi4jnx https://t.co/RlJhmBtk1c
@neil_killick Effort, basically.
@neil_killick Not sure the background. I inherited a team already working this way; didn’t want to change everything at once!
RT @ElizaBayne: Big deal, iPhone 5s. Android also has a security feature that prevents theft. It’s called: Being an Android Phone
