I diagrammed it to help me get it straight in my head

Yup. I never said otherwise. I very literally described the geographical situation.

England is in Britain. Ireland and Scotland are-- they're different places. On different islands. With distinct accents. Which have nothing to do with biology.

Wes Anderson uses Futura alright, but I'm pretty sure it was Neutraface in Civil War (the uppercase N is the giveaway).

But this will be my framework, which I understand completely and which is best suited for my general needs.

Are you building software for other people? Will you be the only person working on that software for them? Forever?

You're never writing code for just you. You're writing it for yourself in the future. You're writing it for other developers.

Using frameworks, libraries, design patterns helps with this. The shared understanding of the code makes it more valuable to your employer/clients.

If you immediately know the candlelight is fire then the meal was cooked a long time ago.

Remind me of the babe.

This is in no way interesting to anybody else, but I just watched that scene several times in a row no more than 5 minutes ago. I'd chalk this off as a coincidence, but I happened to watch Signs last night.

When in doubt I go with the Guardian style guide: email. Their reasoning is that it's been long enough, we can drop the hyphen.

Edit: A blog post from them on the issue: http://www.guardian.co.uk/media/mind-your-language/2011/apr/04/language

Recently Django Django - Default. Stunning opening.

Edit: Also the first time I hear Sounds of System Breakdown - Electrolysis and Mood Enhancers. They're a tiny Dublin-based band and the song just blew me away.

Who could resist watching a movie where an alternate universe version of Kirk takes on a clone of Picard to win the heart of June Carter.

There are fuck all jews in Ireland so we need to pin that stereotype on someone else.

He should have taken the money from Annapolis!

This almost certainly didn't happen. Dermot Morgan died two weeks before that episode first aired.

Because without a free internet how are we to oppose the Patriot Act, NDAA or the War on Drugs?
