Haha. Your city probably got polluted and was riddled with traffic, followed by intermittent power outages forcing you to replace power lines constantly. Eventually you ran out of money because tenants left your commercial developments, res

I'm with you (won't watch videos at work). I hate video content that could easily be text (screencasts, etc.). It's not readily translatable, uses more bandwidth, and (my chief annoyance) forces me to go at the speaker's pace. Descends fro

I think you're mistaken in expecting similar ratios. Everybody has a computer, but not a set of Erlenmeyer flasks.

I'd like to add that I believe basic calisthenics to be superior to weight training for most people. Whereas weights are designed to exercise specific muscle [groups], I think that activities like sit-ups and push-ups work muscles in such a

Really? The "Programming Rules" guide took me maybe ten minutes to go through as a newer Erlang programmer. I found the advice to be invaluable.

Wow, not a single mention of DTrace or ZFS. I believe that these are the best reasons for keeping these projects going.

Armstrong's book plus the style guide...I'll post the link to that when I get a chance. It's overlooked. Edit: Submitted the style and efficiency guides, check "New."

To paraphrase Eldridge Cleaver, sex and power are one in the same. Poor folk comparatively get down more often because they cannot exert influence. The rich have less sex because they're too busy controlling others.

Exactly. I can get action, as can most single people. But if I wanted to get laid all the time, I'd lie to women, entice drunk ones, etc. Not far off from what most "pickup manuals" encourage.

Safari shouldn't have DRM in the first place. And its "token" system for downloading PDFs is absurd. I say, either give me unlimited tokens or get rid of watermarks (PDFs are labeled with user info). Having both is logically wrong.
