On my Ubuntu box I got "Today is Sweetmorn, the 11th of Chaos, 3178. Wibble."

Today is the elevenst!

Yeah actually

I wonder if tomorrow will be the twelvend?

OMG I'm an idiot.

Looking through the files on the php project I'm working on, I thought it would be a good idea to generate a list of where every function is defined. So... All was going well until 'find .' found function_list.txt. It had grown to over 4GB before I noticed

The correct bash command was of course...

I supposed it's a different kind of geeking, but I am extremely excited because my local pub has one keg of Dogfish Head 120 IPA, which is a Very Fine Thing. I'll heading there straightaway after work.

That's not beer, that's whiskey!

Color (or colour) me broken-hearted. They tapped the keg at 5:00 PM, but I had to teach until 7:00. My wife and I got there around 7:30, only to discover they sold out of it in about an hour.

Are Dogfish Head beers available in Europe? I think they make some of the best and most interesting beers of the American craft-brewing scene. Another excellent American craft brewer is Oskar Blues from Colorado. They make a very good IPA called Gub'na, and a knock-you-on-your-ass stout called Ten-Fiddy (because it's 10.5%) that is one of the finest things I've ever tasted.


I've had the Brewdog IPA before. I like it, but don't love it.

I've never seen Dogfish Head in the UK, there's a bar here in Leeds called North that does beers from all over the world (mostly European actually, but they do get US beers sometimes); I'll look out next time I'm in.

IPA can be too hoppy for my taste sometimes; I tend to prefer an English-style bitter (which generally aren't that bitter).

American IPA's will almost certainly not be your thing, then--they're very, very, very hoppy. The unfortunate aspect of developing a taste for them is that nothing else really satisfies you.

Dogfish Head does some very interesting things. They have an Ancient Ales series concocted in concert with an archaeologist at Penn. It attempts to replicate ancient beers based on analysis of chemical residue left behind in various relics which once held beer. They've got a lovely one that they produce all year 'round, called Midas Touch. It's based on a Homeric-era formula. Very interesting, too--it's around 9% ABV, and tastes like a hefeweizen crossed with a muscat dessert wine (minus the sweetness) and spiked with a bit of cumin. Fantastic!

Will do

And if I ever make it to Europe, I will see if I can bring some of the more interesting American stuff with me to share. The last 10 years of American beercraft have been wonderful.
