Standing all the way to Paddington. Here's hoping the next several thousand miles are more comfortable.—@ndw

@ndw not a great way to start a journey, but at least you'll be ready for a sit down! Hope the rest of the trip improves—@ldodds

@ndw ooh where are you off to?—@jacqui

@jacqui heading home. LHR-AUS.—@ndw

@jacqui For the love of all things, if you find it please send it my way.—@ndw

Unsurprised to discover that the economy seating on the BA# 787 "Dreamliner" remains nightmarish.—@ndw

@ndw that's only because you haven't learned to shrink yourself a few inches, silly.—@lehors

@ndw Sympathy Norm.—@dpawson

I'm pretty sure the baggage procedures at AUS specify air dropping the bags over Dallas and driving the last 300 miles. On donkeys.—@ndw

First W3C telcon with WebEx instead of Zakim. We'll miss you Zakim. Also, I give this call a 50% chance of actually getting attendees.—@ndw

@ndw I just tried a webex call (non-W3C), and failed to get it working.—@stevenpemberton

@stevenpemberton I have certainly had it fail. Most often I run it in a Windows VM. That seems to help.—@ndw

[bummer, I loved Zakim] MT @ndw: First W3C telcon with WebEx instead of Zakim. We'll miss you Zakim...—@jeffsonstein

@ndw the Annotation WG first call on webex was okay, but then everyone got messed up for the second.—@azaroth42

Sometimes I wonder if folks who talk about algorithms realize they're just formalized processes. Like long division. https://t.co/B490l6Oa0e—@dtunkelang

The Law of Conservation of Karma suggests SCOTUS will now do something awful to counter all the good. Like side with Oracle against Google.—@webmink

@dscape I was going to point you to http://t.co/xkw6oWvZOL as an alternative, but I don't think that's what you had in mind.—@ndw

@ndw maybe i deleted my original tweet? :) hope all is well, lmk if you are ever in london!—@dscape

@dscape I think we were talking about different kinds of bars. I'll be back in London early September. Will forward details when I have 'em.—@ndw

@ndw would be great to see you :)—@dscape

@dscape Come to the MarkLogic User Group meeting on the 10th? :-) We're hiring, you know :-)—@ndw

Enterprise Java devs now look at the front-end asset pipeline build process stuff and think "even the Maven devs didn't do this many drugs".—@tommorris
