My mom accidentally took one of my Adderalls one night (mixed it up with one her pills). She said the experience was quite enlightening to what I was experiencing every morning.

I was given a slew of ADD drugs from ages 8-16 and finally quit them cold turkey after I realized what they were doing to me. It was pulling me up and down throughout the day. I was high and awkward in the morning and depressed as hell co

I wonder if Steve Jobs did or Bill Gates does get the same joy out of cleaning one's ears with a q-tip after getting out of the shower.

I'm trying to stay unaddicted and I have friends who are far better at me at it. I don't game, but like most people, I'm a FB, Quora, Reddit, HN checker and I've started to realize that I'm hitting a point of diminishing returns with all t

I was into the Seattle salsa scene and definitely saw a lot of engineers get "really good" at salsa. However, you can almost always tell who's a developer and who isn't, based on how they dance. They dance like they're just trying to solv

I agree. When I read this, it felt a bit fake. While I plan on doing something entrepreneurial after college (June 2011), most of my classmates aren't built for it. I've traveled in developing countries by myself, started small ventures
