If you take that sort of approach, I would much rather you present the topics in some sort of directed graph format to clearly show which areas depend on knowledge of other areas. I realize that's a non-trivial exercise and no matter what y

It looks cool enough, but I'm a little unclear what it's doing. Mapping your twitter friends? Is there something else here that I'm just not getting?

If I understand that correctly: your score dropped, so you hacked the scoring algorithm to display a number you liked better? Shouldn't you have instead started a new round of the "game" and worked to fix the bugs -- thus improving your sco

I want to zoom down to street level. Then walk up and down breaking boxes and burning shrubs looking for money.

I only heard about Pat Rothfuss a few days ago (via http://www.penny-arcade.com/2010/3/3/#1267646560 ) but I've really liked what little I've seen of his work so far. Got his book on hold at the library and will cheerfully shill out for

They're going there. But you know how it is... You can know where the physicists are, or where they're going, but not both at the same time. I was thinking about creating a ProcrastinationOverflow but I haven't gotten around to it yet.

This reminds me of a wonderful site from a few years back: http://carfree.com/ The basic premise being to deliberately create small, architecturally distinct neighborhoods with swaths of greenspace separating them, then joining them all t

A lot of arts make it look a lot easier than it really is but it is also not as impossible as others in this thread seems to believe. The main trick is accepting the fact that you are going to get hurt. Get past that then you can focus on m

For me, this is the money quote as I pasted it into my fortune file I knew there were a lot of other people as intelligent as I was, and who had all [the same] advantages [as me]. The only way to be successful then would be to gai

Love this quote: There were times when I lay down on the floor at night, close to crying, and said, "I'm done. I can't make payroll." Then my wife would come over and kick me and say, "Get up and figure it out."

@pg: Uh... that came across as far more negative than I intended. I really do like reading your work and want to read more. The fact that I don't fit into (what I think is) your primary audience does NOT make them any less valuable to me.

This plus "Better GMail" from Lifehacker really take things to the next level. They're a "must have" combo as far as I'm concerned [edit] https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/6076

Well written and it comes at a great time for me. It's such a wonderful feeling to know there's someone else out there like me... I too am a family man (2 + 1 in the oven) with a fulltime job and a mortgage, and am trying to make time to bu

Looks nice. However, it looks exactly like balsamiq. That being the case, why should I buy the challenger (you) over the incumbent (them... with a track record)? I think it would be a good idea to make your app look different in an intere

I had this problem too. We had a whole closet filled floor to ceiling with boxes of stuff that hadn't been unpacked in over 5 years. One Saturday afternoon, I pulled a box at a time out of the storage closet and the wife and I unpacked it o

Good to see the company moving to fix. Though I find their attempt to spin this as "theft-recovery vigilantism" pretty weak. If my kids were attending that school (and assuming I didn't take them out over this), I would not let them keep th

My family doesn't own a tv. For the Summer Olympics there was lots of official online content. The winter games? ... not so much. Sure there are lots of official stats out there, but I was unable to find the figure skating for my wife.
