I've mentioned this before, but entering the "Chinese" internet (or internet of any foreign culture for that matter) is like entering a whole new world. It's amazing how the cultural aspects impacts small things like design sense and advert

I guess sometimes we get caught up sitting at our desk, hacking around and forget to appreciate the world beyond the internet?

Wow. I can seriously relate to this article. I'm notorious among my friends for "zoning-out", going into deep thought, being easily distracted and giving a delayed response when they ask me something. I thought I might have a problem, but t

Why are all these North Korea articles/videos always so interesting to us? Every time one of them is posted I find myself glued to the computer screen and then looking up more information on Wikipedia for hours. I must have seen like 10 doc

The whole concept is actually really impressive. It really shows shows how much more is possible if we just think outside the box. Regardless, I'm incredibly excited after seeing this. We actually have one of these on reserve. :D

Thanks for the heads up. You're probably right that filling out 2 forms is humorous, but it is the bare minimum and I did get away with it for the 2009 tax year (which we had no activity because we incorporated late in the year). I'm even

Thanks for asking your wife :). I'll keep that in mind next June because 2010 was our first "profitable" year. We have a tax-exempt purpose— it's charitable. We're actually raising money to build computers for remote villages in North Ind

You make a really good point. But as I mentioned in the article during my research process I found that for tax purposes if you keep the gross receipts of a non-profit below $5,000/year you automatically get 501(c)(3) status and the proces

If you'd rather watch video tutorials than read something, I'd highly recxomwnd the Lynda.com series 'CSS for Designers' — Although it's a bit dated, it teaches you a lot about web standards and semantics.

Racket is a great place to start with functional programming. We just spent one-third of the school year in AP Comp. Sci. playing around with it before starting JAVA. I'd definitely be interested in learning more.

Why are trains so fascinating to us? Every time I read a new article on new high-speed rail projects or even sometimes while riding on the trains, I find myself spending hours on Wikipedia looking up random facts about rail lines and locomo

Actually, I think I'm wrong because I wrote 中国人, which literally implies a person from PRC. I'm still learning Chinese in school and I didn't know how to say "people of Chinese origin" haha
