The Luney Bin: H. Wade Minter

• @greenisus Congrats on the Rackspace Cloud app making it into the App Store! #
• Going to watch the new DVD from my fellow William & Mary alumnus Patton Oswalt tonight. #
• The new DVD from Patton Oswalt had us in tears from the hilarity, and was made even better by the @tedhobgood slide show in the extras. #

• @cpytel had some great advice for building a company on Rails. #lsrc #
• @SmallieFishing Forgot to tell you, they hired me. I, my sinus conditions, and my chihuahua are moving in tomorrow. in reply to SmallieFishing #
• If it rains in San Antonio three days in a row, Holly will probably be in a catatonic state. #
• Great talk from Dana about how she used Ruby to do some pretty mind-blowing data munging. #lsrc #

• In my seat for the @thoughtbot “Second Gear” training. #lsrc #
• The network speed here is being measured in “baud”. #lsrc #
• @jeffk I’m surprised how many Rackers are here – I didn’t know there were that many pockets of Ruby around. in reply to jeffk #
• Gem is truly outrageous! #lsrc #
• Learning some things about Factory Girl that I didn’t know, thanks to @thoughtbot. #lsrc #

• Watching another thunderstorm in Austin, trying to decide if I want to head out to a Round Rock Express baseball game. #
• Round Rock nearly blew a 6-1 top 9th lead, but won 6-4. Game 2 starts in 30 minutes. #
• This baseball game, like most public events, is reminding me how happy I am to have two nice, sane girls. #
• Back at the hotel. The Dell Diamond is so much better of a baseball environment than Wolff Stadium that it’s kinda embarrassing. #
• @mcornick I recommend Old Town Pizza in Portland. http://oldtownpizza.com/ in reply to mcornick #

• @kr8tr You can’t be serious – with all of the pornspam accounts these days, “block” is the only way to make Twitter usable. in reply to kr8tr #
• My BBQ from @scnbnc has shipped! I just hope it’s still cold when it gets to San Antonio! #
• @wxcampbell Walk outside for a few minutes. You’ll get over it. in reply to wxcampbell #

• @mysa has an amusing item up in their National Weather Headlines right now. http://is.gd/2xgvb #autogeneratedfail #
• @arclight It took me a bit to wrap my head around git, but I’m a big fan now. in reply to arclight #
• @arclight The big advantage I’ve had with git vs. svn is the ease of making and merging local branches – it’s trivial to do. in reply to arclight #

• @armmer My Javascript-fu is still pretty weak, but I’ve enjoyed using JQuery/jrails. in reply to armmer #
• Wow, woke up to thunder last night, and then found out this morning that it had rained! Took me a minute to realize I was still in SA. #
• @sonofalink I had the same dilemma last week, only with air conditioning instead of brakes. A/C is more important here. in reply to sonofalink #
• Getting set for @cszsanantonio improv tonight at 7pm. SA folks should come out to watch! http://cszsa.com/ #

• Oooooh, this is a change! Instead of the rain missing us to the west, it’s going to miss us to the east! Yay variety! #killmenow #
• Why do I keep getting Flickr comments in Portuguese asking if they can use pictures of the girls in “fakes” – some sort of Orkut thing? #
