Wow. I am blown away at the formalness of this habit! I thought my girlfriend was the only person that took this process to such an extreme. I was also just thinking today my spiral notebooks are horribly difficult to navigate, maybe I mig

Mental illness does mean insanity or crazy. It could be a deep bout of depression that caused him to bury his wife. Regardless of circumstances, it is not a reasonable thing to do.

That was a fictional movie. The movie was unpredictable with stunning visuals. I found the representation of death and violence in the movie fantastic. It was portrayed as sudden and uneventful, only lasting a split second. /end rant - bu

And wrote a filesystem chose by several distros as the default. He was a seriously smart guy - and thats what make the story relative. A lot of smart people have mental illness. Happiness in intelligent people is the rarest thing I know. -

I enjoy coffee, tea and soda. However - my body seems to have a really high tolerance for caffeine, and I dont usually have much of them during the day. So I enjoy the taste of all 3, but don't get the caffeine boost some people do. A fri

And with respect to the international community - many countries. Canada's police turn a blind eye to it mostly, since the courts usually throw out the cases. But it creates a ridiculous situation where it is accepted and considered legal,

I am not a student (so, also not a pothead student). I do not agree that you need to have a real job+marriage+kids+mortgage+car payments+etc in order to have a 'real life'. Because if I did have all of those - I would be forced to do what

One or more founders will keep their current jobs during the summer. Shouldn't that be winter?

Throughout my youth, I always considered a similar thought experiment. Make the assumption you were some higher power with no concept of 'time' (or lived forever in our concept of time). What would you do? Well, I believe you would get ver

Good concept, but rehashed here many times. This time lacking in details or interesting anecdotal evidence. It is a very tough thing to do though - getting started. I am currently trying to help a friend get going and he is really struggl

Your best chance at negotiating any salary related issues is before you start. Don't think 'If I perform really well - they will compensate me fairly'. (speaking from experience)

#1 Reason easily explained: Blizzard Their attention to creating what they consider the 'perfect' game on a platform they create is mind blowing. They have had Starcraft 2 what any other company would consider 'finished' for probably 2 yea

Exactly. Do whatever you want, and don't let others stop you. If you enjoy going to parties - go. Someone deciding to get out of control and funnel a pitcher of beer doesn't mean you can't be standing 20 feet away having a great conversat

I suppose Scarface popularized this as well. Tony Montana: In this country, you gotta make the money first. Then when you get the money, you get the power. Then when you get the power, then you get the women.

One big concern you should have is this: Can you recognize a talented and driven non-technical person? Just as one great developer can do ten times the work as an average developer with far less problems, the same holds true with marketing

I have had nothing but bad luck with shared hosting. I have embraced VPS's, and have had zero problems so far with my slice at slicehost. I am just a happy customer - but maybe I should see if they have an affiliate program :) edit: appa

Apples stock price is ridiculous, and great news does seem to almost always drive the price down, especially if it is expected. It is one of the strongest companies with the riskiest stocks (and counter-intuitive swings) that I have followe

I have used Django at a well known web company and then at a startup and many other projects. Django is fantastic, and 'it runs you' would only hold true if you used the basic features and built in admin system and nothing else.
