Rubric

April 6, 2005  ๐Ÿ“š ๐Ÿ“• ๐Ÿ’พ

I keep seeing people post links to Rubric, but they post the link to version v0.06_02 or something. Itโ€™s frustrating, because I imagine newbies downloading an old, broken version and going nuts.

good-bye bryar, hello rubric

Well, I originally meant to use Rubric as a place to keep notes as well as bookmarks, and then I decided it would be a decent journal system, too. I didnโ€™t actually use it for that, though, because it didnโ€™t seem worth it. With a few Bryar annoyances and Bryar looking to be somewhat abandoned, I figured it was time to move.

on not having to use my a-k

Iโ€™ve got to say, it was a good day. I got to work and, after finishing my yogurt, I flipped through the bug reports and feature requests on de.lirio.us and put them on my to do list. Thereโ€™s a user named era who has really been cranking them out. I ended up with fourteen line items for Rubric and felt somewhat intimidated by the fact that my to do list was half-full at eight in the morning.

productive pig, not me

Today started with two guinea pigs in our apartment, and ended with three. The new baby is tiny and cute and awesome. We donโ€™t know yet whether itโ€™s a girl or a boy. Weโ€™re hoping for another girl.

organization, cpants, and choice

Iโ€™ve made some revisions to the paperwork I use to try to organize my day. I figure other people might find it useful, although the chances of that are probably slim. If you want nice simple todo/done forms, suitable for clipboards (full or half sized), theyโ€™re in my hacks dump.

padwalking, paperwork, and productivity

First, a question. When I run this code:

use Data::Dumper;
use PadWalker qw(peek_my);
{
my $lex = "HELLO";
sub pad {
    my $l = shift;
    warn Dumper(peek_my($l));
    print "While you're here, I'll print my enclosed scalar: $lex\n";
}
}
pad(0);

If you look at the entries in del.icio.us for del.irio.us, you find someone with these tags: { ripoff lame loser sucks bastard plagiarism assclown failure faux false hellalame hellahellalame }.

publicity, piggies, and prime

Ok, the publicity in the title is not publicity for me, and that might be a good thing.

if rains then pours

Tonight, still in a bad mood about my laptopโ€™s poor state, I came home from class and put in Republic Commando, determined to relax. The Xbox kept giving me the damned โ€œdisk dirtyโ€ error, often found on the early models. Their DVD drives lose alignment easily. As I ejected and reinserted the disk, over and over, I got more and more frustrated and forceful.
