holy moly... this is what you do when i skype with my mom? - Trish Haley
Maybe I should have added some music to go with it all. Hi honey. I'm not bored, honest! - Josh Haley
I leave you guys alone for a few hours and THIS happens! What did you do to him?!? - vijay
i'm getting dizzy... and now we're talking about MJ dying... :( - Trish Haley
DIZZY ASS SHIT. - Caroline
going by the view stats on twitpic, the middle dude is the most popular! =P - vijay

interesting. I've tried a few times to get animated images to work on FF without success.. I guess piping it through twitpic might be the answer! - veo

Just one question, Josh: are you by chance spinning on 9 different Aeron chairs that were a steal after the first dot-com bubble burst? The future of the internets: you're looking at it =) - Micah Wittman
Bingo! - Josh Haley
could anybody describe how to create such a picture? thx - Arnaud Fischer
Arnaud, see http://friendfeed.com/mokarga... for tips. And Josh correct me if I'm wrong, he uploaded to Twitpic the same animated GIF 9 times, then created a friendfeed post and attached all 9 images by URL (instead of choosing images from his hard drive). Images coming from twitpic, soup.io, etc will animate, but photos hosted by friendfeed itself won't. - Micah Wittman
Hahaha, nice :) - Simon Wicks
Sir... my muse - Johnny Worthington
@Micah: awesome, thanks! - Arnaud Fischer
Did not sleep well with all the spinning. :p - Josh Haley from iPhone
It's infinitely more amusing when they don't all load at the same time. Spinning chaos!!! - CAJ, somewhere else
Why the friendfeed limitation on animated .gifs? It seems arbitrary and odd to me. I could see wanting to limit filesize (animated .gifs can get large) but you can upload huge .jpgs without any trouble. - veo
Mesmerizing like a lava lamp. Hey! You are a 'Lame-o Lamp'! And you might want to call the folks in the makeup department and get that forehead de-sheened. Remember, your forehead is an alternate landing site for the Space Shuttle - And you don't want to blind the crew on their final approach, do you? :-) - Morgan Haley
Good luck trying to land anything on that while it's moving. :p I can always count on my brother. - Josh Haley

OMG! That should be the next installment at some fluecy deucy art museum!!! AWESOME. :) It's like whack-a-mole... I keep trying to figure out which one will show your face next and for some reason I'm always wrong. - Lindsay
Thanks, Lindsay! :) I think that's the first time someone described wanting to systematically hit me on the head repeatedly, yet have it come off as a compliment. I would love to take credit like I was Andy Warhol or something, but alas I was just tired and felt like doing something silly. :p - Josh Haley from iPhone
yep, what Lindsay said. That was one of the first bona-fide instances I've seen of using Friendfeed as a medium for net art. You could get in the Whitney & stuff. GOOD JOB - Kamilah Gill
LOL! I actually didn't mean it the way it came out (the hitting you on the head part, the compliment part is ok ;)). But I'm in tears laughing when I read your reply. Whack-a-mole always frustrated the heck out of me... I did a lot more staring than hitting when I tried to play. It was mesmerizing. - Lindsay

You just did. ;) - Josh Haley from iPhone
you wait - the scary part of this comes when one of these ffoodoo heads stops turning, starts grimmacing and talking to you ..... have you seen one of these heads actually get up off the chair and curse the world??? ... the seeming dissynchronicity, the haphazard discord with which these dollheads turn might drive you ...nuts - Petr Buben

Happy birthday Josh!!!!!!!!! - Rachael Worthington from iPhone
why do you spin right?? why not left? you should spin left ..... its your party, so spin. but balance it reasonably.. - Petr Buben

Gowalla vs Foursquare. The winner won't lead due to features alone. I'll be who gets the early adopters to evangelize through events
Having used both services I prefer Gowalla, but Foursquare has Dodgeball creators and that's helping make it more popular. Gowalla has a better iPhone app, where it's easier to add locations. Foursquare has a better "game" aspect. - Michael Koby

Tweetie developer calls on Apple to allow iPhone app upgrade pricing
"Earlier this week developer Atebits previewed the upcoming second edition of Tweetie, the popular iPhone Twitter client. Despite the app including a number of significant new features the public response wasn’t entirely favourable. The reason? Tweetie 2 won’t be a free upgrade for existing users – they will have to pay again for an entirely new app." - Martin Bryant from Bookmarklet

“When it comes to valuation, making money is a real obstacle. Our profitability has been a real drag on our valuation,” said Mr. Fried. “Once you have profits, it’s impossible to just make stuff up. That’s why we’re switching to a ‘freeconomics’ model. We’ll give away everything for free and let the market speculate about how much money we could make if we wanted to make money.

Configured my iPhone and all works like a charm. Calendars and contacts works great. The best part is that if you setup Google Voice to forward SMS to your email, you also get Google Voice SMS pushed to your inbox. Sweet!! - Kevin Tee

"Two years after Yahoo surprised everyone by launching push Yahoo Mail for iPhone, Google adds push support for Gmail. And it's not limited to iPhone, it also works for Windows Mobile devices. "Push e-mail is used to describe e-mail systems that provide an "always-on" capability, in which new e-mail is instantly and actively transferred (pushed) as it arrives by the mail delivery agent (MDA) (commonly called mail server) to the mail user agent (MUA), also called the e-mail client. E-mail clients include smartphones and, less strictly, IMAP personal computer mail applications," explains Wikipedia. Instead of periodically fetching new messages, mail clients receive notifications as soon as there's a new message. Applications no longer waste bandwidth and you're able to read a message shortly after it was sent." - Arnaldo M Pereira from Bookmarklet

Zee: Foursquare who? ‘Gowalla’ might just be where it’s at. (Available Worldwide) http://tnw.to/17fX - http://twitter.com/Zee...
I actually prefer Gowalla to Foursquare for the simple fact Gowalla actually uses the GPS to determine where I'm at rather than just by city area. when I search for things in foursquare it lists things 20 miles away and to add a new place I have to know the address. Gowalla is better thought out IMHO, Foursquare is riding Dodgeball coattails and isn't doing a great job at what it's trying to be. - Michael Koby from BuddyFeed

Yuck. Django = Python = FAIL. - Otto
Python itself is a fail. Whitespace with meaning? Seriously? Uber-fail. - Otto
Damn right. - Otto
PHP and Python are both fine, anything but ASP! - Mike Chelen
Otto, you sound like me before I actually started programming in Python. It rocks. - Steve "Daddy do it!" Lacy
Python's the best, I've got to agree with the people who dislike the whitespace thing though (It's still the best). - Hugh Isaacs II
I tried to use Python, then stopped even bothering when I couldn't find a way to manually define my code blocks. It's a stupid design feature that makes the language unusable for me. Mainly, I don't like using "smart" editors or IDEs for simplistic things, and the whitespace issue makes it more or less mandatory to use one of those. They say Lisp is a language of parentheses... Well, Python is a language of the spacebar. - Otto
Why would you *not* indent your code that way anyway? Is the ability to format your code badly really a feature worth fighting for? Python forces people to pay attention to formatting, which improves readability and maintainability. Pure win. - Kevin Shaum
The ability to format my code the way I want to format it instead of sticking to some arbitrary specification that, frankly, makes no sense, is a feature that I will not give up, yes. One size does *NOT* fit all, and there is more than one way to do anything. Making code formatting have *programmatic meaning* is an epic fail, in every sense. I will not now, nor ever, use a language that has this "feature". End of discussion. - Otto
@Otto It doesn't make it a fail if you don't like it. Besides if that's the only flaw you can find in Python it just demonstrates how much you really know about it. ;) There's a saying in Finnish which translates to English something like: You should try everything once, except folk dancing and incest. - Tarmo Aidantausta
Tarmo: I disagree entirely. I am the only person that matters! HOORAY EGO! HOORAY BEER! - Otto
/me is glad I don't have to read Otto's code. ;) - Steve "Daddy do it!" Lacy
Steve: You'd be surprised. Do you have a car made in the last ten years? Well, there's a better than even chance that some of my code is actually inside your car (and a ~85% chance that my code has affected your car in some manner during manufacture). Have a nice drive home. :-) - Otto
really nice approach .. Congratulations. - VeriMask
I don't understand the way you guys are responding to Otto - he doesn't like a key aspect of coding in Python; something that touches every line of code he would write - so why should he continue to mess with it? There are plenty of really good languages out there that he can use and get the job done. he tried it, didn't like it, and moved on. If you like using it great - but his not liking it doesn't reflect on your or the language at all; so why be defensive? - Bill Rawlinson
Otto: distinguishing between formatting and programmatic logic is subjective. in C for example, a new line character has meaning, so "#include <iostream> void main()" would be different than putting them on separate lines. - Mike Chelen
Bill: The reason is, virtually every programmer responds the same way the first time they look at Python; but most people who stick with it a few days *completely* reverse their opinions. I went months thinking Python was awful before really digging in, and found out I had been missing out on something really cool. - Kevin Shaum
go php go ! - Furkan Tunalı
Kevin: Why should I stick with it? I've read several code examples of it, I see no inherent advantages to using it (especially since virtually every other modern language offers a very similar feature set), and trying to adhere to its annoying and strange formatting standards drives me straight up the damn wall, so no. The hell with it. Python is the only language I've ever seen where... more... - Otto
While I do agree with Otto of the ridiculousness of whitespace having an effect on program execution, I disagree with Otto's stance on branding Python as a bad language per se. It is a nice language to ease beginners into writing nicely formatted code, although I shudder to think of writing huge apps with it. As was posted, there is no such thing as a one-size-fits-all language. Me? Oh,... more... - Pandu ● IT Optimizer from fftogo
Otto: my reason for learning python was originally that it was the only language supported by google app engine, which has a certain utility. since they now support java as well, it is more due to seeing some elegant examples in python, and that if from google's point of view any language is somehow comparable to java, there is probably a good reason to learn more about it ;) - Mike Chelen
Where it published? is there any story with it - Satya Prakash

Absolutely, programming is Engineering. All that varies is the scale of the system you're building. Engineering is also both art and science. I worked on the space station at NASA as an engineer, on truck vehicle dynamics at Ford, and software dev for 30 years now, and you could write many volumes on the similarities. - Ken Sheppardson
Software Engineering - Chris Heath
See also Systems Engineering - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki... - Ken Sheppardson
Also "Systems Architecting: Creating & Building Complex Systems" by Eberhardt Rectin -- http://www.amazon.com/Systems... which among other things goes into design "heuristics", aka patterns in Systems Architecting - Ken Sheppardson
Those engineering processes with waterfall diagrams and Work Breakdown Structures, however, were developed to handle MASSIVE systems with hundreds or thousands of engineers. I don't know what the software development equivalent of the Apollo Program would be these days... - Ken Sheppardson
Paul Graham from that talk: "Sometimes what the hackers do is called "software engineering," but this term is just as misleading. Good software designers are no more engineers than architects are. The border between architecture and engineering is not sharply defined, but it's there. It falls between what and how: architects decide what to do, and engineers figure out how to do it. What... more... - Leo Laporte
One of the big differences between big engineering projects and software development is that on engineering projects you often have participants with significantly different agendas and schedules. The guy who does plumbing might be available on these three days, the electrician has to be out on this day or he charges you 2x, the concrete guy wants to overcharge you, etc. You're not all on the same team. So you have to have a predetermined schedule and budget, clear specifications and deadlines, etc. - Ken Sheppardson

It's still creativity so a shared experience could spark more creativity - Johnny Worthington
Cool, never heard of "Free Libre" but Open Source of course. - John Wright
Talking about re-factoring with your spouse? that's nearly the funniest thing I've ever heard lol - John Wright
Libre is a Spanish word meaning free as in liberated (as opposed to cost free) - Leo Laporte
Is "Free Libre" a term used in software? Or just for this show? Just curious - John Wright
I only know Turbo Pascal.............. :( - Johnny Worthington
Errrrrrr........................ That's what she said? - Johnny Worthington
John: It comes from Richard Stallman's comment: "Free software is a matter of liberty, not price. To understand the concept, you should think of free as in free speech, not as in free beer." -- http://www.gnu.org/philoso... - Ken Sheppardson
What? So something like this? "If you want to see a list of our guest, click there --> Link" - Johnny Worthington
No, you turn text into hyperlinks, you don't say "Go here" or "Do this" - Ken Sheppardson
Just like Justin Timberlake... but different. - Ken Sheppardson
and failing - Johnny Worthington
It's a vote getting thing. People don't understand technology so they want the government to do it for them. The mums and dads don't want to have to learn about filtering (nor do they probably want to monitor their kids) so WON'T SOMEONE THINK OF THE CHILDREN is a powerful message - Johnny Worthington
We need a consumer-grade ZFS appliance... or some sort of distro... - Ken Sheppardson
What was the book just mentioned again? - John Wright
I looked away, but I think Randal was holding up the Smalltalk Best Practices book. But Kent Beck has several http://www.amazon.com/Kent-Be... - Ken Sheppardson
Ok the book was Smalltalk Best Practice Patterns. Thanks Ken! http://www.amazon.com/Smallta... - John Wright
