There is no substitute for a great peer who is heads down.

printf “%s\n” “${PATH}” | tr ‘:’ ‘\n’

instead of using

echo “$PATH”

Attention is a new "chit", as well as "privacy". These have value, and the majority of the Internet audience give it away freely. Great comment!

]]> Comment on GIGO Polling by Joah http://djwonk.com/blog/2008/07/08/gigo-polling/#comment-81 Joah Tue, 08 Jul 2008 20:19:14 +0000 http://djwonk.com/blog/?p=28#comment-81 I agree, in large, with what you have here, but I feel that much of what you wrote is based more in your disapproval of Sen. McCain's bid for presidency than the poll (and its choices) itself. After all, Sen. Obama and his advisors often employ the same polling methods, which is one reasons why the left is now attacking him for running a focus group-based campaign to the center.

I had been analysing my CSS for quite a time, and eventually pinned it to Haml, but hadnt got a clue how to fix. So easy when you know. Thank you so much for documenting this one.
