Woah! Had prepared myself for Steve Schoger and Adam Wathan’s Refactoring UI book to be more expensive than even an expensive book. Had prepared myself for $70 – $80. But $250 for a PDF!!? Cripes.

I mean, it’s a good kit of stuff. But even the discounted $150 is a lot.

And I’m sure it will do great at that. But it’s not “an operating system for the web” that was previously talked about. And this future is not hugely interesting to me as a software developer.

Notes on State of the Word: Let’s step back and consider what WordPress is to be now. It’s not a general purpose CMS – that direction seems dead. There’s nothing in its future direction about types, fields & meta. It’s a site builder. An HTML authoring tool. It’s Dreamweaver!

Interesting. Seems they can’t/don’t/won’t make polygonal chocolate coins. So 10p is the biggest they can do now. To cope with inflation they’ve started making “chocolate notes”! I guess rectangles are just easier.

Isaac drew this a few weeks back. His explanation is that it’s someone who fell over in Strictly Come Dancing and their partner is sad because they fell over. All the judges gave it zero apart from Bruno who gave it one!

Owning a Facebook page is so much like playing whack-a-mole.

Feel a bit like: [adopts gruff Yorkshire accent] “Aah twas LOADS better in t’olden days when you wrote XHTML on punch cards and did table layouts with GIFs and scrolling marquee elements and accessed t’Internet over a screechy 9600 baud modem using FreeServe. Them were the days.”

Of course, this roughly translates to:

Drivers:

STOP DELIBERATELY DRIVING YOUR SODDING GREAT BIG METAL BOXES AT ME AND MY BIKE COS I’D QUITE LIKE TO GET HOME TO MY WIFE AND KIDS IN ONE PIECE!!

I’ll be ridiculously polite about my bike ride home today.

Drivers:

In the dark it’s harder to judge distances & speeds. I’m seeing a worrying trend of people mis-judging these things.

So please do remember that cyclists probably needs more time and space than you think.
