So, here’s a thought that occured rather spontaneously this afternoon. What if URLs had a codified set of rules, akin to linguistic grammar? Right now there is a minimal required form, that of protocol://host/<arbitrary-and-optional-stuff>, which is perfectly reasonable in a limited fashion. What I’m suggesting is that <arbitrary-and-optional-stuff> have a set of rules as well.
Muddling through the interwebs, as I do every day, I came across a few interesting thoughts on personal development, “Business-2.0,” and blog categorization.
Starting with the last element, is the addition of a “Thoughts” category. A good place to drop half-formed ideas, random thoughts, and things that just don’t fit elsewhere yet deserve better than ‘Uncategorized.’ I guess this post is one of those “Thoughts.”
While working on some code recently, I noticed a preponderance — neigh, an outright overabundance — of swith/case logic blocks to control content. What’s worse is that the input variable to the switch block happened to be the value of a specific hash key, which got me to thinking — what is the purpose of a switch/case block, after all?
Someday I'll fill this space with meaningful, personal information. Today - is not that day.
