    I went to a craft beer festival this weekend.

    I told my dad about it yesterday. He said, "Craft beer? Heh, more like CRAP beer! Ha ha ha!"

    And then ordered a Miller High Life for lunch.

    You drink your shitty craft beers from hipsters who brew it using organic hops and unicorn farts. Your dad is the classy one. He's drinking the champagne of beers.

    learning programming is so easy though

    there is literally a billion resources for it.

    I mean, in Dances With Wolves, Kevin Costner learned to speak Indian in, like, five minutes.

    And he's no genius.

    What ancient techniques did they know that we've lost?

    What a great show that was. Man kids today are getting screwed over even on inferior PBS shows. Dora the Explorer? Please.

    I was a huge fan of that Math-net dragnet or whatever it was.

    PBS shows back then were educational, now they're just about getting along with different people and celebrating other nationalities.

    Who needs that when you've got lines of symmetry?

    Hell yeah. That show was great.

    I had a sudden image of spool's and my parlor offering to rent out a room to an Austin high school's CS club for prom

    and them thinking we're insulting them by assuming that they couldn't get dates to prom

    and then I say that I didn't go to prom in either college or high school, and given that I help run a gaming restaurant I'm way nerdier than they are

    and then it turns into comparing our nerd-penises

    so basically I have weird trains of thought

    Having done programming for a long time I now find it really hard to explain to people why you should do certain things, like this style of program structure, or this level of encapsulation. I just do it and know when it feels right. Makes teaching people really hard.

    Condoleezza Rice may be a war criminal, but she is also a polyglot and a concert pianist.

    Which makes me hate her more.

    houston is now having a "brew fest" in addition to a beer fest. I went to the inaugural beer fest and it was a fucking logistical disaster. 2 hours to get in through the gates, overcrowded, no shade, just miserable.

    The head of the Japanese department of UGA spoke something like 10 languages. He had also helped create a written version of some tribes language when they previously had none. It is pretty cray cray. Its too bad he also was a huge misogynist douche.

    When you are the empirical example of men being better than women, it's hard not to be misogynist.
