I’m waiting for the new iPad Mini and the new SuperNote A5X2. I’m not in the market for a new Mac.

It’s a quiet, do nothing day. Nothing in the sense, I’m doing the usual stuff. #laborday

What fun things are you doing today if you’re on holiday?

Stuff I find in the garage. #game #dos

Happy Bison-tell Yell Day Yes, it’s a thing.

Hello. Don’t be confused. It’s just a holiday. Time for the ceremonial coffee.

What have you stumbled upon lately?

I wonder if corporate endorsements would make programming more lucrative and programmers celebrities… You know, uniforms full of patches, video advertisements, guest appearances on morning “news” shows. Getting to massacre the national anthem… That sort of thing. #celebrity #programming

TIL: Taco Bell, in the US, isn’t named after a bell, or even a “belle”. It’s not even Mexican/Latin in origin. #food

What book made you cry? That is, if you cry. #books #reading

I’m enjoying the day. No, I’m not having fun.

What do you regret not doing or seeing?

“The cost of perfection is your sanity.”

I always question the cost of a copy editor given how little I make from my books. But I want to put out the best book I can. No, I’m far from a perfectionist. #books #writing #editing
