Meant to upvote this. Started learning German in 2nd grade, but that's only because my dad was in the US Army and we were stationed in Germany at the time. Learning a language at that age (and younger ) should always be an option for kids

I've learned not to take things at face value and provide evidence (and demand evidence) of why what's said makes sense, is credible, etc. People here are always calling others out for what amounts to "anecdotal evidence" and I know find m

What causes these thoughts? Either way, talk to a loved one (who loves you) or a friend and then visit a psych. Some people may rant about having drugs prescribed, but that doesn't always have to be the solution. Just having somebody to ta

To be a racecar driver--professionally or not. Sounds crazy, but something about watching Formula 1 for the last few years has driven (haha) me to really want to get involved some kind of way. Saving up for lessons at the Skip Barber Raci

The IBM/Firefox tie-up started a long time ago with them contributing some accessibility features. http://www-03.ibm.com/able/resources/firefox.html Glad they made it official, though, but Firefox had been an IBMer favorite for a while:

I like how for some of them the "before" was a male and "after" was a female--especially with the girls. There's always an uproar about how there's a distinct lack of women in science and tech, so it's good that this trip helped them alter

Depending on what you're building, see if you can turn a customer into an advisor. For a product I once put together for other businesses, one of the earliest users ended up being very helpful as an informal advisor: giving feedback on the

What do you do? (Details aren't 100% necessary, but just trying to get an idea of what you do so we could perhaps help you make it more interesting in some way or another--if leaving really isn't an option.)

A page straight out of "It's Not How Good You Are, It's How Good You Want to Be." Bought that a long time ago and betting it'd make for a good re-read thanks to this reminder. http://www.amazon.com/dp/0714843377

I feel sorry for the ConnectU guys only because it looks like they'd rather spend time suing than building something else. Sure, it sucks to get ripped off, but it sucks worse to drag out that kind of response to having that happen.

S/he has a point. I spent four years in college in DC eating at various Five Guys in the DMV area and they were all great. (And it had nothing to do with price--I'd spend $8-10 every time I went there which was fairly often.) Then, I star
