My definition of a nice night is to spend it on instantdomainsearch.com looking up domains that it would be cool to have. Here are some I found tonight:
swillr.com (as well as swilld.com)
boir.com (a four-letter domain name!)
ltimate.com (so you can do u.ltimate.com)
asdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdf.com (seriously, asdfasdfasdfasdfasdfasdf.com is taken)
So, I finally have IMAP. And it’s on the iPhone. This is so huge. Pop through the iPhone sucked (apparently, according to Mark, just using the m.gmail site is the way to go).
Here’s the only rub: it’s not clear on the iPhone that some mail has been pre-filtered. So, I have to choose which folder I want a message to go into instead of just clicking ‘archive’. Plus, from the main inbox screen, I can’t archive — I have to look at the message (which takes long load time, sometimes on EDGE).
Still, good stuff.
Kate made a good point concerning the new billion-dollar rehab Disney is sinking into DCA: What will bring people to ‘Cars Land’ in fifty years?
In case anyone else has recently frozen up to the latest rails edge and gets this ‘config.breakpoint_server’ notice:
I actually found the solution to this at http://dev.rubyonrails.org/browser/trun … v=7183#L56 if anyone else is interested. Just remove the ‘config.breakpoint_server = true’ on line 12 of environments\development.rb and the deprecated error is no longer displayed when you migrate, run WEBrick, etc.
This took me a while to figure out tonight, but it may be old hay for other Rails hackers, so here it is: if you want to find out the ‘last’ id in a table, use this:
Model.find(:first, 
rder => ‘id desc’)
Pretty easy. Too bad Model.find(:last) doesn’t work.
Main Bowdoin Website is Down as of 11:51 AM PDT. Most likely, due to the crushing weight of Homecoming Alumni pinging the site to find out where the beer tents are.
Fear not, friends, for the Northern Bites Blog is still afloat.
Apparently there are now Bowdoin-sponsored Varsity-ish hats that saw ‘Bowdoin Ultimate’ just like this one. I want two.
From GMail’s iPhone help center:
If you notice that messages you send from your iPhone are appearing in your iPhone’s inbox, please note that this POP behavior is a result of enabling Recent mode to ensure that all other POP clients will be able to access your messages. We’re aware of this issue and thank you for your patience while we address this issue.
This is indeed rather annoying. Why not just go IMAP?
1) All 50 States vote on the same day for the presidential primaries.
2) Eliminate the Electoral College and elect the president via the popular vote.
3) Kill Gerrymandering of congressional districts and force state’s to draw lines in boring ways.
