    It takes guts to admit it’s your first ever talk. And he NAILED it! @jesse_bryant at #sydphp https://t.co/hPiLXtgCpe


    Stand back! @developerjack is going to do live coding. #sydphp https://t.co/PTg80Fhl0Q


    I don’t have kids, so “You don’t look old enough to have a 20-year-old website!” is pretty much as good as it’s gonna get. #sydphp


    Can’t decide if I’m proud or embarrassed that both me and @jesse_bryant used the Boromir meme in our #sydphp talks. https://t.co/sqOHAJH17Y

    For anyone at #sydphp who wants to see my Knitting as Computer Code talk! https://t.co/WMa5Weciiv


    @DarrenNolan_ @ThisIsMakena Hey, I never once mentioned frames! I’m not a total monster. 🙂


    Happy Canada Day to my Northern friends! https://t.co/jC6dgTVQY6 https://t.co/QHvq7CosFS


    Whither The Webpage by @ThaxRomana https://t.co/C7xUZvHCsY // YES! Bring back the independent, goofy, passion-project websites of yore!


    @ThisIsMakena @DarrenNolan_ Never! (Or if I ever did, https://t.co/NushN0ajwD has thankfully skipped over that repressed memory.)

    I had an awesome time tonight at SydPHP talking about my Roald Dahl site and how it’s evolved since 1996.

    I don’t have kids, so I suspect “You don’t look old enough to have a 20-year-old website!” is about as good as it’s going to get.


    Happy Canada Day to my Northern friends!

    @TheWonkaTonka YAY! I was actually wondering if you’d have them on your birthday. Many happy returns! 🙂


    @TheWonkaTonka @imdominating So much hair!


    @johnallsopp XKCD used to sell a skirt that had a regexp cheat sheet printed upside down around the bottom. Still annoyed I didn’t get it.

    @omarsyd It’s possible I’m the only one. A Googler finally wore me down so I’m giving it a free trial. 🙂


    @rosepowell That’s how I feel when I’m busy.


    @heathergracious NICE CATCH – definitely right up my alley. Sending them an email now. 🙂 Thank you!

    @halfwrittentale The Google Election map actually shows which polling places have cake stalls & sausage sizzles. 🙂 https://t.co/ovpqOlHBTv

    @chrismessina I got very excited thinking it was a bot that would tell me about @GelatoMessina ice cream.

    RT!


    Whoa! All you have to do is change your surname to Burger. 😀


    I’m giving a talk at Thursday night’s SydPHP meetup on the challenges of maintaining a website that’s twenty years old, and how I recently spent six months migrating it to a brand new CMS. You should join us!

    @BusesInnerWest Cleveland St Near Beaumont St. Twice this week a scheduled 352 didn’t turn up. 🙁


    RT @HillaryClinton: SCOTUS’s decision is a victory for women in Texas and across America. Safe abortion should be a right—not just on paper…

    Thanks to @unlikelylibrary for helping me track down a very obscure (and frankly, not that good) Dahl story! https://t.co/hcJttkjOxg


    @Malarkey Sure! kris.howard AT gmail 🙂


    Okay, self. @BusesInnerWest fooled you again. The 9:42 #352 is definitely fictitious.

    The world may be going to hell in a handbasket, but I did the most satisfyingly PERFECT parallel park today. So there’s that.


    @randomknits We went there on Tuesday! I got mine “naked style”. 🙂


    @gilmae @randomknits Down-n-out burgers, right? https://t.co/uJmn6MLZOP


    @gilmae @randomknits Ah, yeah. They use a hunk of iceberg lettuce as the bun!


    @randomknits Haha, the bubbles make it classy! 😛


    The Dahl interview I did recently is live! Only one quote, but he did use a lot of the material I gave him. 🙂 https://t.co/aogc2Lvs5u


    @gilmae @randomknits *drool* Also, I cannot understand why you both aren’t super fat. 😂

    @i386 Well, they let us into Eurovision.
