In-person interview, at Tableau's Menlo Park office. Involved some whiteboard coding, which I'm not all that good at yet; hopefully I'll get the opportunity to do some more in Seattle. At least I'd spent some time beforehand reading the Java class library docs -- things have changed a lot since the last time I used it. Fortunately I'm still a quick study for programming languages.

Afterwards I went out shopping for printer ink and packing tape -- ended up getting the tape at Office Max, black ink at Fry's and color at Staples. :P

The house is filling up with boxes.

I have, somehow, acquired what appears to be a bone bruise on my left heel. Wearing shoes/boots fixes it, but ouch anyway. I don't *like* to wear shoes indoors.

The links in the notes below are almost all good. Dark chocolate cuts heart deaths -- Yay! Stuxnet, the worm that targeted Iran's nuclear facilities, was created by US and Israel -- duh. And I didn't know there was such a thing as wrap rage, but it doesn't surprise me.

    "One of the appeals of this study is here is a dietary alternative which may
     be quite appealing to a lot of people. In fact, chocolate studies have shown
     really good compliance rates," Reid told AFP.
