Dear Neighbors
I live in St. Augustine Beach. If you live in the low-numbered streets or the early letter streets, chances are we’ve seen each other. I’m writing to tell you that yesterday, Sunday, June 21, my house was broken into and robbed. Our door was locked as it always is when we are gone, but the door was kicked in. Noone was harmed (noone was home), and fortunately no major damage was done to the house. However…
MY LAPTOP WAS STOLEN
Being a software engineer, this is a painful blow. If you live anywhere near me, I ask of you 2 things.
1) Please contact me if someone you know comes in to a new MacBook Pro 17in glossy screen. Model from late 2007 (pre black monitor trim).
2) Get an alarm system and a strong door. Apparently these kinds of robberies are on the rise in our area. What a shame.

"In many “OO” languages, especially those with dot notation, the methods are owned by the class, and you cannot access a method without compiler promises that the object it will call that method with is of a class that owns that method. This is not object-orientation, it is just plain lunacy."

It’s been a nice weekend. Great time with friends on Friday night, Saturday and Sunday at the in-laws, and lots of hacking relaxing interspersed throughout. This week I’ll be giving an expanded presentation on Scala, which is where most of my hack time has been spent.
Bonus: Erin is playing the piano

I’ve created a book a book wishlist at Amazon. If you feel compelled to hook me up, that’d be a good place to look :-)
