When this happens to me – the hour or so I'm awake in the middle of the night is not a peaceful relaxing time – the night has this pessimistic quality to it: the assignment I'm wor…

Getting fired from Applebees is the best thing that could've happened to her. That's divine intervention if I've ever seen it...

Highly recommend this book: http://www.amazon.com/Language-Thought-Action-Fifth-Edition/... Which talks in detail about the "informative" and "affective" connotations of words (it'…

Agree, 1 in 4, Gambler's Fallacy: http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gamblers_fallacy

As far as speed reading books go, this one is decent: http://www.amazon.com/Spd-Rdng-Techniques-Accelerated-ebook/... It's the best superpower: read that book first, then all the r…

I agree with you - absolutely. The potential for growth and perspective as a human being is innate - some people have more of it than others. Though those people with greater poten…

Sigh. That wasn't at all what I was trying to say. I'm not my father either... but a piece of his generic code is in me. He was the final link of a countless chain of beings, and I…

I'm 35, been together with my wife for about 8 years and we're finally expecting our first kid in about 1 month. We were both always firmly in the "no kids" camp, the cost/benefit …

That slow motion `rm -rf` is a little doubtful. Sounds more like an ftp-style recursive delete.

That's why I just use VI. Ever since Nibs became XML there's no reason to ever use XCode anymore. Seriously though.. XCode does suck. It's a miracle anyone has been able to write a…

I wonder if the much higher DPI let's the new iPad get away with lower brightness overall - ie allows it to compensate on battery life.

I guess from MPOV, "eloquent" formatting shouldn't change based on the size of the content... ie the difference between standard indenting and tab-aligning commas vertically. There…

I thought about it like you describe - but then why even bother with the generation, why not be able to browse your stylesheets and have them transformed into styleguides realtime:…
