but I decided to follow him based on this quote:
http://dashes.com/anil/2009/02/you-didnt-miss-anything.html
So, it's not exactly the most profound observation, and I'm far from the first to make it, but it's worth noting again: There isn't that much going on. While the constant flow of information is entertaining and addictive, it is, by overwhelming consensus, primarily filled with bits that are of little to no value. I'm recording this as much for my own future reference as for anyone else's.

I liked this tweet: 
"I like smaller regional confs with local speakers. I'd rather hear how someone is actually using something rather than hear an evangelist."

I read through his posts about trying to sell one of his companies back in 2007, or maybe 2006 and so I stopped by carsonified.com e very now and again and finally subscribed to his twitter

rebuilding the db schema 

1 - update config/schema.yml

2 - "php symfony propel:build-sql" from the command line, that will build the correct propel crap from the schema.yml

3 - now, here you should be able to just run "php symfony propel:insert-sql" but I always get a [wrapped: invalid data source name] error that I have no idea what it means, so you can also do:

> mysqladmin -u root -p create DB_NAME
> mysql -u root -p DB_NAME < data/sql/lib.model.schema.sql

obviously you don't have to do the "mysqladmin" command if you have already created the db, and you don't have to worry about the -p (password) if your localhost root has no password. You can also open the XAMPP phpAdmin and import the lib.model.schema.sql file into your db that way.

4 - then, if you changed your schema you will want your model bases to reflect the change, so delete the cache (delete everything in the cache folder) and then run: "php symfony propel:build-all" to rebuild everything, the documentation says to use "php symfony propel:build-model" but that doesn't redo all the base* classes of the model

I got all this from the middle and bottomish part of http://www.symfony-project.org/book/1_2/08-Inside-the-Model-Layer

propel:data-load in ch16 will also let you import data from a text file, to populate your db

To just rebuild the sql and the classes:

php symfony propel:build-sql
php symfony propel:build-all --classes-only

"high correlation between speed and good decisions...There are good fast decisions but no good slow decisions"

more context:
"“There are basically no companies that have good slow decisions,” Mr. Page said in a rare public appearance at Google’s Zeitgeist conference in Paradise Valley, Ariz. “There are only companies that have good fast decisions. As companies get bigger, they slow down decision making, and that’s a big problem.”"

I don't really remember what it was like before. Whatever I had going on, it was bull****. It wasn't important. It's kind of a nice thing about being a dad. My identity is really about them now, and what I can do for them, so it sort of takes the pressure off of your own life. What am I going to do, who am I? Who cares, you've got to get your kids to school. So I like it that way.

getting the first key of an array 

I always have the problem with having an array that only has one key, and I want that key and the value, I used to use something like: foreach($arr as $key => $val){ $this->key = $key; $this->val = $val; } which is dumb, here is a much better way:

$arr = array('some_key_with_meaning' => 1);
reset($arr);
$key = key($arr);
$val = $arr[$key];

to get the last key and value:
end($arr);
$key = key($arr);
$val = $arr[$key];
