Sigh, not going to get these slides finished tonight, they'll just have to wait till I get back.

@skwashd I'm sure it wasn't, I'm just teasing you. Have a nice red and a chevre for me.

I love that. @skwashd battles riot police to get to a bar.

@skwashd Nice try. Glad he didn't whack you with a stick.

@skwashd There's also the bigger question of why the hell French riot police were yelling at you.

@andyc Not too stressful, it's only a 4 hour flight each way. People commute that daily in Australia :)

@andyc Right after I go to WA for a long weekend. Family commitments, sigh (actually, yay, should be fun, probably what I need).

@120new More stuck in this crap is full of holes mode, I don't seem to be getting anywhere mode. Sick of whinging mode. At least it's sunny.

@andyc No stress, I take the encouragement in the spirit it's meant.

@ciarang I agree, it does have a nice ring to it. Unfortunately, I'm not sure that a nice ring is worth the pain.

@andyc I'd be lying if I said that your voice wasn't already in my head. I don't know what that means.

@joshix Everything I've written is pretty shit, in retrospect. That's part of the problem.

My life would immediately dramatically improve if I ditch the PhD.

@joshix If that's what you're trying to argue, I agree one hundred percent.

@joshix Not much, at least any more. Oh wait, no, they're going to give us the semantic web.

@joshix Do you think the ISO would have done a better job defining HTML ? Do you think a better spec would have changed browser behaviour ?

Tuesday from identi.ca - Comment - Like - Share

@joshix They can define a subset all they like, browsers will still be liberal in what they accept, so HTML will be irregular.

@joshix It really doesn't matter how good/bad the specs are, browsers will still be liberal in what they accept, so HTML will be irregular.

Someone keep @joshix going, I'll check in again in the morning.

@joshix That was almost a blog post ;)

@joshix Ok, so you're saying that parsing HTML with regex is ok if you have the force, right ?

@joshix Let's pretend you do, and I'll try to read it again.

@joshix "Both" is an option here, but "neither" is not.

@joshix Am I drunk, or are some of those words not what you meant ?

I'd say, "Terry Chay doesn't just use regex to parse HTML, he consumes HTML with regex," but I don't know who Terry Chay is.

Chuck Norris uses regular expressions to parse HTML.
