Calico
- My calico is sitting on my left arm right now
- while I type on the computer
- i'm typing to put some queued actions into my little queue script
- so i can check for them
- and then see if the cron picks them p
- up i mean
- i ran some queries, i'm just waiting for the 5 minute mark...
- some "before" queries that is
- huzzah! the log has a new row in it...
- let's check with some "after queries!"
- it worked! freakin' sweet
- my calico was on my writst, but i slid it out from under her
- she's sleeping on my left thigh now... with her face near my laptop...
- oops now she's looking around
- she's sweet
- i think she likes me
- i like her too
- it's hard having a 3rd cat around here...
- with the extra expense in food, and the extra poo
- but i love her... she's sweet
- it's almost been 5 more minutes now... took you much less time to read this than it did for me to write it, didn't it?
- that next cron should fire off soon :-)
- my other cat is snoring loudly
- they're all asleep
- when i get the queue for streams working right, i'm going to start working on another use
- for the queue, that is... qlickthru.com summary tables...
- i think streams should start rolling the ripples
- now i can't see the last one...
- maybe after 5 it should roll out the first one... so you can always see...
- This goes pretty quick... :-)
- I'm happy with the queue thingie...!
- i should be pretty easy to create the "conversion" pixel
- on qlickthru
- very similar to the view pixel i would imagine
- then the summary stuff, which should analyize things like duplicates, etc... and from/to domains...
- i think the archive tables on the queue should be uh... monthly or weekly... i'm not sure...
- doing 1 ripple makes 2 queue actions...
- damn that thing is quick!
- it just ran while i was typing that stuff...
- the rows go in out of order... which is perfectly fine!
- since the whole idea is to be asynchronis
- I wanted to use the queue for paypal stuff too... :-) i remember now
- oh - and remind me
- not quite sure *how* exactly that will work..? *shrug*
- but i was thinking for reminders...
- they could be queued when they are run...
- that a queue handler will send them, and re-schedule them... (if need be)
- for the ones where people want like... hourly reminders or something...
- how long will my session hang on...
- i.e. if i come back to one really old - do i get a new stream or something? guess not...
- i have to put the visitor counts into the queue for all sites... :-)
- I guess there's nothing to process...?
- i must have missed a few....
- ohhhhhhhhhhh i see - at 3:30, 6 were processed...
- that makes sense
- i must have missed them
- this needs javascript to be interesting
- if i move the cats all get up and look around
- then lick each othere
- nother minute and the queue will go again...
- i love it
- i wonder if i could crank that sucker up to run every 4 minutes or every 3....
- i don't want to piss off Michal
- yeah - i gotta add some stuff to some stuff and things... :-)
- i'm extremely tired now
- i'm excited that houses near brandon are so inexpensive
- meeko stopped licking cream
- the calico's name - it's cream
- OH! and comment subscriptions... i always wonder if those could be made to run off the queue... which is what the whole requirement id was for....
- i.e. we put in the comment subscriptions with a requirement...
- but i'm not sure how that would work... :-/
- since who knows when i'll approve the comment...
- which would release the subscriptions
- this really needs some nice scriptaculous on this screen
- and mercury really slows down around 1:30 or 2
- at night
- i think it's jumpin now because i'm accessing it
- then again maybe it was my connection...
- who knows?1
- ?! even
- this is a long stream
- this is kinda what i thought people would do... it just ... type freely
- ooo it's almost the 5... i changed the q page to show "in progress" things... - ones with a pid
- damn - i saw it... it picks them all up
- but it goes so fast! :-)
- i guess that's the idea - small atomic pieces of data
- i like this little tiny web empire i'm creating... :-P
- "empire" ?! ha!
- queue should definitely roll the log tables...
- not sure if daily or weekly would be better...
- they're not HUGE tables... not yet at lease
- least
- it will be fun when things pickup
- a bit more
- and we can play with some real numbers... ya know?
- i really should put the last 2 little page views on streams... the "streams" w/ recent streams, and the by anon page...
- then i could leave it for a while...
- oh and do the javascript/scriptaculous stuff on this silly page
- yaaaaaay!
- how hard would it be to make 100 items waiting in the queue!?
- i wonder!
