26-Apr-04Got to learn a little about left and inner joins today. Result is a patch query page that is dog slow but works. [Later] Sr. Willcox and Rob Adams goaded me into adding some indexes tonight instead of sleeping, and it totally paid off- queries went from ~30 seconds to ~3 seconds.

24-Apr-04Random bits:
The Green Party of Canada is going to create their party platform for the next election via a wiki. Holy Shit. I hope some deliberative democracy folks are being given access to the diffs as they happen.
mofo.com is not what you’d think it would be.
Pipka: I apologize.

11-Apr-04Just saw a brilliant performance of Tom Stoppard’s Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead, on a set inspired by Escher, with a smart ‘icing’ of The Clash as everyone left the theater. Everyone in Boston should go see it. And if you’re a Lessig fan, ponder the cultural sampling going on all over the place [...]
