A day's worth of Twitter (38)

10:16:52	—	fire drill. There goes the morning.
11:14:43	—	fire drills get actual fire trucks?
11:15:02	—	precreated dataset, not procreated!
11:15:34	—	ch2 making recs (collab filtering; euclidean, pearson; userbased vs itembased filtering)
11:15:55	—	hm, pearson good for adjusting for grade inflation between different critics (assuming rating harshness is consistent)
11:22:39	—	hm look up tanimoto (ratio of intersection set to union set)
11:22:56	—	ch3 clustering (hierarchical clust, drawing dendrogram:PIL, rotating matrix, k-means-less iterations but results vary, clust of prefs:zebo)
11:28:07	—	manhattan distance?
11:47:16	—	on to multidimensional scaling: target distance between all items, random init, target vs current calculated and adjusted, loop. Neat!
12:32:31	—	by quite nicely, I mean from within eclipse itself, without my having to do a mvn eclipse:eclipse manually.
12:33:49	—	oops, lost original message. Like the maven2 plugin: it's importing my project quite nicely.
12:34:33	—	you can tell how often I've typoed the command to post to twitter from my cellphone, based on the number of DMs I have....
12:41:19	—	accidentally slammed my arm against a doorknob :(
12:43:37	—	have a mailing list which is sending me emails twice; can't seem to figure out how to remove the original address.
13:05:07	—	Hmm Facebook won't let me add friends. Javascript error -- looks like it's double-escaping the " character?
13:05:51	—	oooh-kay. The import is taking a much longer time than I'd anticipated. *taps fingers on desk impatiently*
13:06:57	—	using shell bookmarklet to manually trigger the relevant function...
13:13:53	—	Don't even know why it has the names as an argument. Changing it doesn't seem to change anything in the dialog that's loaded...
13:54:08	—	Hung in the middle of resolving classpath. Restarting eclipse took care of that. I can work now, please?
13:55:40	—	apparently, during the fire drill, they demo'ed a fire extinguisher by opening an LPG tank, and then lighting a fire. Glad I stayed away.
14:06:16	—	oops, no that didn't fix the situation. Going to try importing again *sigh* Can't figure out a way to make it recalculate classpath manually
14:10:48	—	just realized I haven't had lunch. Feeling myself begin to crash. Food should fix both situations
14:14:25	—	reimporting fixed it! thank goodness! Still need lunch, though
15:10:42	—	back from lunch. RFC 1035 keeps talking about octets; took me a while to mentally map that to bytes.
15:10:56	—	back from lunch. RFC 1035 keeps talking about octets; took me a while to mentally map that to bytes.
15:33:39	—	K, will count that as a failed experiment: shall not try to drastically change my dev environment just before trying to get things done
15:41:20	—	butterscotch sweet potato is not, after all, camote-que
17:20:29	—	have used up my simple question for the day. Waiting for an answer. It will be blindingly clear once someone else tells me what I'm missing
17:21:17	—	I hate asking these types of questions though, but code inspection/config inspection/documentation inspection has not yielded anything.
17:21:50	—	again with the deeply suspecting I'm missing something trivial and obvious
17:27:05	—	I talk too much *sadface*
17:56:22	—	oh sh-- I was accessing it on the wrong port. HELLO OBVIOUS.
18:25:51	—	got 800 pesos for a free talk I gave >^_^<
18:42:43	—	have been trying to only invite people to mob wars who are already playing, so I don't spam.
18:43:38	—	um, but I just realized that the invite me to mob wars link shows up no matter whose profile I'm looking at-so maybe it's not an indicator?
18:45:33	—	either that, or even the unlikeliest people play mob wars *G*
22:03:14	—	something clicked near the end of the day. Lugged the laptop home, but I think I am on the right track. Only... I'm so slow. So frustrating.
22:34:09	—	have two latops on my bed. Which duties do I concentrate on?
