Another boner on the conference call yesterday. A thirty minute conference call was going on 92 minutes, and I had to call home about something, so I put the conference call on hold. No sooner had I dialed home than I get an IM from another participant: Did you put us on hold? I realized my hold music was now playing in the background of the conference call.

I'm not sure I'd describe that as "another boner."

Actually, I was on the Unicode committee for a while around 1990 and told them about the Deseret alphabet. They'd never heard about it. The original members wanted to be fairly thorough, but didn't want to throw the kitchen sink into the standard. I guess they reconsidered later.

I don't think it was a good choice to post this on a messageboard.
You make a great point. Good choices and message boards are mutually exclusive.
Would it be a good choice to delete my prior post, or would I just be compounding poor choices?

Don't worry about people stealing your ideas. If your ideas are any good, you'll have to ram them down people's throats.

Any sufficiently complicated platform contains an ad hoc, informally-specified, bug-ridden, slow implementation of half of a functional programming language.

I'm obsessed with LaMar Alexander and his website simplesolarhomesteading.com. I can't read enough about his $2000 cabin, his solar composting toilet, his hot tub made of a cattle feeder, his cabins designed to evade official permit requirements, his lucious fruit trees fed with perf pipes of humanure, his insistance on not allowing any strangers to use his toilet because he doesn't know what kind of germs their waste contains. He looks like a hermit with discolored teeth, but he's come up with some brilliant small house designs, and off grid living strategies. The beautiful eco people love him.
I hear he lives in Flaming Gorge. Anyone else ever heard of him?
