  Scala: Silly things I’ve done. 

  I had a list of objects, say like this:

  val l = List("aaa", "bbb", "ccc")

  and I wanted to produce something like this:

  <td id=IDaaa>aaa</td>
<td id=IDbbb>bbb</td>
<td id=IDccc>ccc</td>

  I first did this:

  l.map(u => <td id="ID" + {u}>{u}</td>)

  and that failed, unsurprisingly. That’s not even close to valid xml.

  The real way is this:

  l.map(u => <td id={"ID" + u}>{u}</td>)

  CrossFit: July 29 / 2008 – Annie – new record 

  Named Workout: Annie
  Laura:
  45-35-25-15-5:
  - Double Unders
  - Situps

  9:??

  Tyler:
  50-40-30-20-10 reps of:
  - Double Unders
  - Situps

  7:15. Woop, that’s a big improvement from 10:48!

  But then watch Speal do it in 4:33. Damn robots.

    That is a ridiculous Annie time…I am still twice that. Your skipping must have come a long way from the early days.

  • Tyler Weir 3:24 pm on July 29, 2008 Permalink

    I’m quite happy. The difference that solid, consistent Double-Unders is huge.

  • @kevsmith Awesome! #
  • I really like reading articles by Daniel Spiewak: http://snurl.com/36hh2 #
  • @kevsmith Make sure to point out the concepts of erlang and erlang/otp. I was confused by that at the start. #
  • @strawpoll (2) Debit – carry as little unneeded debt as possible. #
  • @kevsmith Sounds like a good plan. #
  • Robbie Keane to Liverpool? What? He’s going to play off Torres? So odd. http://snurl.com/36itu #
  • Not sure about how my 24 hour fast is going to go today. Looks like it will be about 18 hours. CrossFit was grueling this morning. #
  • @paulwill I attempt one 24Hour fast a week. The stress promotes Growth Hormone release. It’s a black box experiment on my body composition. #
  • @paulwill – It doesn’t hurt, the feeling of hunger comes in waves. Water and black tea help. #
  • @paulwill Yup, the rest of my routine stays the same. :) #
  • @ryancarson Hell ya you should, it’s just hair. #
  • A coworker is selling chocolate almonds for charity. In related news, I’m full of chocolate almonds. #
  • @travisjeffery Are you in Toronto? #
  • @travisjeffery Right on, Toronto needs more mac nerds. UofT for what? #

  CrossFit: July 28 / 2008 

  Woo, this was pretty rough.

  120 SDHP – 45#
  120 Thrusters – 45#

  9:59. I was surprised I was under 10 minutes. I did all of the High Pulls and then all of the Thrusters. I wonder how time would be different if I did 6 rounds of 20/20? Other than the first set of HP, I was doing sets of 20 and then 10.

  I should try it again.
