Hmm, how odd -- er strike that

Was about to post an entry musing about some odd behavior I'd run into on entry preview, and then it occurred to me that I could probably track down the cause with a couple of moments of investigative work.

Few minutes later, I have a patch, a bug filed, and a fix committed.

(The things I get up to while procrastinating from writing the news post, oops)

Any human being is capable of doing a ridiculous amount of work, so long as it is not the work that he or she is supposed to be doing at the time.

Ha! I've only read the initial article and it has pretty much described my whole life. Thanks. I'll probably read more on the subject as a way of not doing something more important. ;)

Oh, God, yeah. As soon as I found that article, I realized it described, like, my entire life. I have since (mostly) learned to use it *G*
