Most performing artists I meet are very professional, friendly guys. Show them respect and take it seriously, and you'll get it in return. If you love insane/awesome riders, here's my favorite, Iggy Pop's: http://www.thesmokinggun.com/back

I can understand your frustration, but this is how it works almost anywhere. Like if someone joins an IRC channel about a programming language and says something like "I'm getting build error X when including library Y" people will just say

There was a bug in the Rails code he wrote, so he berates Google until the last couple of paragraphs when he explains it was his fault (he thinks?) Did I overlook something in the article? I think that's exactly why Google sends out form le

Great article on the complexities of proposals competing for standardization. I especially appreciated the no-nonsense rundown of the statistics. Whoever takes the Grade 1 Haskell Invitational prize will apparently net a big advantage. Is t
