   I'd say about 2M. *0.04 == 80k from passive investments, and put half of that back into the principal to combat inflation.

   What about http://www.clozure.com/clozurecl.html ? I believe it was Clozure before Clojure was released (but I could be wrong).

   In addition to car nav, the last Garmin thing I bought was a Forerunner, which is obsoleted by "My Tracks" on Android (and undoubtedly other things on other platforms).

   Real estate is one that really chaps my ass. I don't know what it's like in other countries, but in Canada there's this bizarre mafia of middlemen that take ~6-10% of the value of house when you sell. They self-promote and self-reinforce to

    That's a horrible idea, and it sounds a lot more like training than education. 90% of Math, Chemistry and Physics are calculations? You're doing it wrong anyway. The material content of the calculus class is nigh useless, the goal is to get

    Oh, and System->Preferences->Keyboard->Typing Break under Gnome, or workrave for Windows. Being interrupted every 30-40 minutes is irritating as shit, but if you practice you can keep your flow alive by staring at the screen, ke

    I'm sure this worked for you, but for me a trackball made things much worse. It seemed to be more weird movements in my thumb/hand. I do notice that if I'm not doing much work (i.e. more browsing with the mouse) things are worse than when

    Stop programming at home for now. I know, it sucks. TS. For me, it seems to be tightness through my inner shoulder down to my elbow and inside forearm that causes the problem. But, yours will surely be different. I really really really reco

    I have no idea. UUCP (Usenet) addresses used to be (are?) "backwards" and ! separated. Maybe some historical references related to that would point you to more info. If I were to guess though, I'd guess email addresses. me@machine being ori

    I'm horrible at choosing lines, and it aggravates me to no end. As in most endeavours, the vastly more important factor in determining efficiency is the person doing the job. i.e. the cashier or the programmer, not the type of line, or the

    Seems strange. I'm pretty sure I read clumps of words, not individual words when I'm going quickly. (also, disappointed in the title: where's my wetware interface already?)

    SauceLabs looks slick! Hope you're making money. :) I found Selenium to be a bit heavy for what I was doing, but for a full application with UI it seems like it'd work well.

    Are you're running the tests on the same OS that you work on? I guess I could set up a whole bunch of VMs (or VM snapshots) and use Selenium RC and then cycle through them.

    Hard to read, main page has no lower case. Without signing up, I don't understand how it works. Do I have to manually enter all my stats into a spreadsheet, or is it better than that?

    Never mind hooking up to your fast PC, just add 4G+ network access and have it stream the video straight to the cloud for immediate analysis and indexing. Freakin' cool. Scary.
