Going through these lists are strange — I expected the 1,001 books to be the best books, or the new Classics, things that an educated person should read to know about life or something like that. It was more of a little of literary-pop novels rather than Good Books. That there were so […]

I posted those videos mostly on Thursday and Friday through YouTube’s share interface, and they just showed up now. I think from now on I do it by “hand”.
Bring Your Own Big Wheel
I’m not normally a fan on the left coast, but this is an event I’m sad to miss.
I’ve been working a lot lately. We’re in that state of the project where we’ve been two weeks away from launch for a couple of weeks now, and every couple of steps forward uncovers, fractal like, a bit more stuff that we need to do. I’m sure most other computer types recognize crunch […]
The consensus over here at Benchcoach World Headquarters is that Paul Graham has jumped the shark. Six Principles for Making New Things:
Here it is: I like to find (a) simple solutions (b) to overlooked problems (c) that actually need to be solved, and (d) deliver them as informally as possible, (e) starting with a […]

I’m getting ready to head to the office this morning and as I’m unplugging the phone I see this:

It’s times like these that I wish I was registered Democrat. Get out tomorrow and vote people! I haven’t seen any Clinton supporters out there — most of the windows I’ve seen around here are Obama people and I think everyone in the technology world who is familiar with their policy stances are […]
A woman in liquor production
Owns a still of exquisite construction.
The alcohol boils
Through magnetic coils.
She says that it’s “proof by induction.”
A nice quixotic gesture in preserving the Limerick.
