I would definitely prefer if the government had nothing to do with any kind of safety standards, including regulation of food, drugs, and vehicles.

Yes, it sucks that Edison screwed over Tesla, but how about the fact that he had serious BALLS? And Steve Jobs wasn't a dick at all? C'mon. Edison was a great entrepreneur. Despite his personal failings, he had the vision and determination

Yea, exactly. Whenever someone of Norvig's caliber is willing to teach, I shut up pay attention. I wouldn't care if Norvig was teaching how to make peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, I'd have my freaking notebook out scribbling down his re

I absolutely cannot listen to house music and work. As soon as I hear any kind of House I start dancing. I find it nearly impossible to listen to any kind of music and try to focus on working, but House is the worst, it invades my brain and

How Duhigg hacked his brain to reprogram an unwanted routine: 1. Identify the habit's reward. Ex: going to a cafeteria to eat a cookie could be to satisfy hunger, get a burst of energy, take a break from work, socialize, etc. 2. Identify th

My life keeps getting better. Thanks you, Thomas and Quan, both. I always leave the front-end work for last because design is ridiculously more difficult than coding. Guys like your are easing the anxiety I feel every time I start trying to

Great list. I use most of the resources listed there, but really, the Emacs wiki usually answers most of my questions.

I just stick with Emacs for composing posts. Format them with Markdown and copy from my Emacs buffer into Wordpress. Simple enough for me. All the files are on Github, so I guess I could create a plug-in to pull from Github into Wordpress,
