> Then maybe try to fix that instead of complaining about bikinis in powerpoint presentations? Why can't we do both? Maybe the problems are related? It's wrong (although a common argument) to insist everyone be working on the single most important problem all of the time. What are you working on right now? Grails app? Game? It's less important than curing malaria, so you should drop what you're working on and go do that.
