Wants vs. Needs
jyfl987: hi, i am planning to implement an memcache server side application, can you guys told me where is the parsing part in projects memecached
dsal: What? Are you wanting to write an engine?
jyfl987: yes, my boss want to using memcache's protocol as our rpc protocol and i want to use inetd to wrote an simple and multi-thread implement for it
jyfl987: found it, its in memcache.c try_read_command
dsal: No, you want the storage engine framework. Trond wrote a tutorial on writing engines with it: http://blog.couchbase.com/writing-your-own-storage-engine-memcached
jyfl987: nope, i dont need the storage engine
dsal: If you think you need try_read_command, you need the storage engine interface.
jyfl987: i just want to learn how to parse the command :]
dsal: Why do you want to parse the command?
jyfl987: i am not a cs student, so missed some knowledge on parsing/compiling
dsal: This is definitely not the place to look, then.
jyfl987: anyway, i found what i need
dsal: I think you found what you were looking for. You've yet to find what you need.
jyfl987: yep,

Test Ease
E: R, what would you like this repo called?
R: Test tools?
D: When I was in fourth grade, I had to find my own spelling words out of the dictionary and write stories and stuff around them.
D: One week, I used the word "scrotum" -- "pouch containing testes". My story was very interesting and I could not convince my teacher that I did not know that "testes" was not the plural of test.
D: My story involved a scientist conducting tests on a deer.
D: The part about delivering the results my teacher found particularly disturbing.
D: So, if you're asking for my opinion on what to call your bag of tests...

Movie Night
(my daughter got invited to movie night by some boy and mentioned another boy would be there. I asked her if she'd be watching porn with a bunch of boys. She said she would not. Then I got this SMS later)
her: ...23:30 or would you mind at 24:00 because we are watching forest hump 22:51
her: Gump* 22:52
Me: ¡ I knew you were watching porn! 22:52
her: Dad! 22:52

YAGNI
(upon finding an important bug obscured deep within code we will never use)
Him: on 679, sounds like you're tempted to make some big changes to fix it right but pointy haired boss (me) is loathe for big changes at this time
Me: I hope you recognize you're making every argument I've ever made against adding code that we don't need because of the horrible support burden it brings.
Adventures in Corporate Espionage
Friend: i'm at the moto hq again, there's this room i can kind of see in that has a bunch of phones wired up to PC's and terminals scrolling log output
Friend: looks kind of like a testing setup
Me: take phone
Me: inventory

WatchProbably needs some parameters tweaked, and definitely a feed of real data (I was feeding logs in here), but I think this is going to be quite nice.
