Twitter for Week of 18 May 2008
I obtained a Twitter account last week. These are my lightly edited tweets for the week of 18 May 2008. Follow me at http://twitter.com/conrad_halling/.
- 2008-05-18: 14-mile long run this morning on the Minute Man Bikeway. I stupidly didn’t carry water, so I was extremely dehydrated at the end.
- 2008-05-19: The term “efficient multitasking” is an oxymoron. The human brain can’t multitask and work efficiently at the same time.
- 2008-05-20: Twice today I printed the “current page” from Microsoft Word 2007, and twice today it printed the wrong page.
- 2008-05-21: I recommend the article, “The Fall of Conservatism”, by George Packer, in this week’s New Yorker. The conservatives have no good ideas.
- 2008-05-22: I succumbed to audible.com after listening to too many TWIT podcasts. My first book is an old favorite: Our Mutual Friend, by Dickens.
- 2008-05-23: I’m shopping for a 20-inch to 24-inch LCD display. My experience with the Dell E207WFP is that it’s a low-quality monitor. I want something better.
- 2008-05-24: Thank you, Hillary, (I write sarcastically), for telling us you’re staying in the race because Barack Obama could be assassinated in June.
- 2008-05-24: I’m reading The Mind Readers, by Margery Allingham, an Albert Campion mystery (1965). It’s about ESP and a new element named nipponanium.
- 2008-05-24: Excellent advice from Bioinformatics Zen about how to organize bioinformatics experiments. See this post.
