weird...
Hmm, a weird thing happens when I was trying to compile Flex 3 applications with haXe. I was getting a lot of errors of the form:
Field systemManager has different property access than in mx.managers.IFocusManagerContainer (default should be null)
What worked for me was going into
/usr/lib/haxe/lib/flex/1,2/mx
and editting the files so that I removed most of the
(default,null)
instances. Not sure what the problem was here, but things seem to work now.

cqrs
CQRS: Crack for architecture addicts
Great quote:
So ask yourself this, you're probably an architect or senior developer. Can the rest of your team fully understand the directions you?ll be giving from your ivory tower? If half of them can't you are choosing the wrong architecture. I don't care if it fits your problem perfectly. If your team can't handle it, it's the wrong choice.
This is so true, code is not just about making your computer do something, it's also for communicating with other people, both on your team and also developers in the future. Ignore this at your peril.

tonight
Tonight I was slicing up homemade bread that I made today and listening to Infected Mushroom. It makes me happy to think that there are very few other people in the universe that do these two things.

ERR
A really wacky error! I am running Phusion Passenger on Mac OS X, and I was getting a:
500 Internal Server Error
When I was trying to do a POST that went over a certain size limit, about 5960 bytes or so.
It turns out that the web server was trying to write into the directory:
/tmp/passenger.15068/webserver_private
But that directory didn't exist. I created it and all was well.
