Yé! Suis allé au-delà de mes propres attentes, aujourd’hui. [Petite tape dans le dos.] / G’night, ev’b’dy!
Dude actually went out of his way to tell me he enjoyed my class. I’ll take that as a compliment.

Danger! Mon optimisme verdissant me pousse à penser à la semaine de lecture comme un moment où faire plein de choses.
Passer du temps à @lapanthereverte, ça donne la pêche!
H/T @GinaTrapani on “evil” and “open” used against Google. Yet, Google’s discourse is at stake. http://lar.me/1sv
Had a difficulty time during the past 24h (and FallacyMan was the least of it). Here’s hoping that today goes well.
As my #liveUP correctly measured, I slept 1:19, last night. But it’s still not that difficult to wake up. That part’s ok.
Recovering WiFi password through Keychain Access. Obvious, perhaps, but useful: http://lar.me/1so
Sounds like I won’t get these three hours of sleep after all. “Oh, body! I promise I’ll take care of you Real Soon Now!”
In today’s agenda: 3h of sleep, two lectures, two committee meetings, and some class prep. 12h+ in a day at my part-time job. :-)
While I get why @Tumblr didn’t include a comment system, I still wish it had a better way to interact with visitors.
Grrr! @MarketCircle Billings stalls at startup just when I need to send quick invoices. Time to switch to something else?
Anybody else got an issue with the System Information app in Mac OS X opening dozens of instances? Almost virus-like.
Looking forward to hearing @MarcoArment talk about @Instapaper 4.0.2 on @5by5 #BuildAndAnalyze.
Beau plaidoyer pour l’accès ouvert! @editionsvertigo sur @RC_LaSphere /cc @_sthibault @amsciforum #OpenAccess http://lar.me/1sm
Bien hâte de savoir quand @couteauknife va ouvrir ses portes…
Comme ça, @lucgauvreau est passé à @RC_LaSphere? Bien hâte d’écouter ça! http://lar.me/1sk
En un court débat avec un seul individu, me suis fait servir au moins cinq arguments fallacieux, y compris une insulte à ma connaissance.
Sometimes, I try too hard to “kill two birds with one stone”. / En faisant d’une pierre deux coups, je me contrains trop.
Taxonomy of logical fallacies, via @Tettner: http://lar.me/1sj
A useful list of some of the most common fallacies. http://lar.me/1sf
“We need to be the change we wish to see in the world.”
“Victory attained by violence is tantamount to a defeat, for it is momentary.”
Le degré zéro de l’humour, selon @Tettner. Sociologie et cognition. http://lar.me/1sd
Chu pas patriote ou chauvin mais une réaction que j’ai souvent au V&V: j’aime être québécois.
Yes, I’m aware of the danger of coming to live within crawling distance from Vices & Versa.

Isn’t it a problem that ineffective teaching would be the easiest way to reduce grade inflation?

Some swearing but insightful spoof: “Form letter template for acquired startups” by @StevenF http://lar.me/1sa
Thanks, @RickyToc. That @HeartRoasters Guat is nice too, but I prefer the Gallan Abaya.

C’était vraiment bien agréable de passer la soirée au @FIFEQ, hier. Mais triste de ne pas y voir François Beaudet…
Gave @5by5 +K about Technology on @klout. http://lar.me/1s5
“Zynga Shamelessly Rips Off ‘Tiny Tower’ with Canadian Release of ‘Dream Heights’” @TouchArcade http://lar.me/1s2
Wouldn’t order it everyday (as @saroshig might say), but this “Thai” fish dish is quite interesting.
Drôle de voir @PikoloEspresso à l’entrée de @FIFEQ.
Canadians, if you value the services you receive, I suggest you make your voice heard @psacnat before it’s too late: for you and workers.
True joy of #SEO: making someone’s day by having a post praising them come up in search results, without any forethought.
Lancement @FIFEQ ce soir. Yé! / Looking forward to tonight’s ethnographic film event.
Had seen this @MattCutts tutorial on Linux Gmail backup. If @DataLiberation were more straightforward… http://lar.me/1s1
Can’t @DataLiberation help me to download all my Gmail messages as a .mbox? IMAP/POP makes export/liberation difficult.
Huh? “Google’s Broken Promise: The End of ‘Don’t Be Evil’” according to @Mat http://lar.me/1s0
