Apropos of even less

One day real soon I’m going to start writing real blog entries again. But for the moment, I’m a bit too bogged down with various things, so I’m just going to continue sharing quick, amusing anecdotes.

Moments ago on IRC, Jeff posted one of the more amusing error messages we’ve ever come across:

tar: phpicalendar-2.22/phpicalendar/tmp/parsedcal-US%2520Holidays-2006: implausibly old time stamp 1969-12-31 16:00:00

Damnit, James. You weren’t supposed to show the world that, once in a while, I still use PHP apps!

Meh.

The fact that you haven’t released your blog code kind of gives away that it’s all written in PHP. Or was that Perl? I forget…

Imagine that error being read by Douglas Rain and you realize that we are yet another step closer to being trapped in a space ship under the control of rogue AI.
