As of 10 days ago: wondering which rails search engine is right for me? ThinkingSphinx, UltraSphinx, acts_as_xapian, or do i really need full-text search? twitter.com/carpeliam
Here are some facts about me. If you log in, you can add your own.I've been playing around on a piano since I was 8 or so. It's something I like to do. I also like to play piano for other people. If you ever want to give me something to do, just give me a piano and someone to listen to me, I'll be happy for a while.liam
Technically, I'm Catholic. Well, at least I was baptized Catholic. There are some things I don't like about the Catholic Church, but then again there are things I don't like about any church. That said, I'm still a little apprehensive about getting confirmed. I think that questioning and reaffirming your faith are good things. I like talking about religion to non-religious people, because I think I'm a good position to actually explain it from a rational point of view.liam
I like the sound of ice cream trucks in the summer; who doesn't. Some day I'd like to buy one and just drive it around with the music playing (Scott Joplin's Ragtime would probably be my choice). I wouldn't actually sell ice cream, and I'm sure that lots of kids would be sad when the ice cream truck just keeps going and never stops, but it'd be worth it.liam
I wish I had a better sense of smell. I don't.liam
I'm horrible at time management and prioritizing. Chances are, right now, I probably should be doing something else.liam
I really like sleep, but I don't act like it.liam
We are all the same age.liam
There's something about Cinnamon Toast Crunch that is pretty good. I used to really like Kix, Fruity Pebbles, and Capt'n Crunch. I liked Kix so much, not even throwing up in a bowl could dispel me from liking it. (I didn't eat the rest of that bowl.)liam
I'm kind of competitive, but I'm also kind of lazy. That kind of makes me the ideal ultimate frisbee player.liam
I used to think that sexual innuendo was funny. That was a long time ago. Sometimes I still make "your mom" jokes occasionally, but I have to know you pretty well to make one. It also helps if I don't know your mom that well, because then I'd feel bad.liam
I don't really believe in scratch tickets. My uncle inherited some money, invested it in some scratch tickets, and won a few thousand dollars within a few days; he bought me two $20 scratch tickets for Christmas, and neither of them won at all. So I really didn't get anything for Christmas that year from my uncle, and he spent $40 on me. Maybe it's due to my lack of faith in the system.liam
My favorite color is green. This is probably part obligatory, having the Irish heritage and all, but it helps that all those touristy photos of Ireland seem to have the most beautifully lush green grass I've ever seen.liam
Sometimes, I'm a Sensitive New Age Guy.liam
I was born in Burlington VT, and it's still my favorite city. Growing up, my dad lived right by Lake Champlain, on a cliff overlooking the water. The name of the cliff was "Sunset Cliff", and I can tell you I've never seen prettier sunsets anywhere else.liam
I'm a good cook only if you think that being really good at following directions constitutes being a good cook. I'm not inventive at all, but I know how to do stuff. I wish I was a better cook.liam
My best score in Hearts currently stands at 23. I'm not a big fan of Hearts, I hardly ever play. I've only played once with real people, but I won that time. I think.liam
