If you don't know it already, you might like a poem by Edna St. Vincent Millay called Renascence.

This looks really impressive. One note -- there is an established current affairs/culture magazine/media brand called Monocle. While Monocle (the magazine) doesn't focus on tech, m…

Easily distracted by new email messages (or old ones that make you feel guilty for not replying) whenever you go to Gmail to send an email? Try this: instead of going to Gmail dire…

Fun. Would be nice to have a way to attribute the quotes, so you show quotes from notable people. Sometimes a quote is inspiring for who says it as much as for what it says.

I can't say how "amateurs" maps to MIT freshmen, but I wanted to point out that back in the day SICP was used, in its entirety, in 6.001, the one-semester entry-level computer scie…
