@railsninja: Have you ever had an OS X update fail? I've not (even upgrading to Leopard), though I have read some horror stories. |
@railsninja: 10.5.6 fine here - despite Shoes failing to quit and crashing the whole machine ;-) |
Certain areas of social networking are like caffeine in their addictiveness and lack of ultimate result. Trick is figuring out which areas. |
@IndianGuru: Looks good - thanks :) |
All I can remember of last night's dream was that someone used "portmanteau" as a verb and I found it hilarious. Even my dreams are square! |
I find Google Friend Connect very misleading. It doesn't seem to let people "log in" to my site.. just to Google's widgets on my site. |
Looking at the pictures of the Greek riots one thing jumps out at me. There are almost no natural blondes in Greece. |
Laura will never be a programmer :( She failed the classic "a=10; b=20; a=b; now what is 'a' equal to?" test. |
It's not that we're too lazy to change blown lightbulbs, but Laura has candles lighting the kitchen. |
Bill Clinton and Al Gore installing CAT-5: http://upload.wikimedia.org... - no joke! |
@gilesgoatboy: Two words: "Chelsea Handler" :-P |
Can't stop looking at this beautiful De Stijl map: http://tinyurl.com/5hubgx - perhaps you'll like it too. |
@andrewdisley: Heh. Well, he did sell when it was up like $140 in March ;-) Great timing! |
Love reading inside transaction reports on companies. Apple's Jonathan Ive (designer of iPod) sold $28.8m of #AAPL stock so far this year. |
Never been in weather under -5C or so. Can't imagine what it's like in, say, Montana where the low is -32C (!!) today.. |
Love the bit in Pirates of Silicon Valley where Steve Jobs asks the applicant if he's a virgin or not. Job interviews should be like that :) |
Ronald Wayne was the 3rd co-founder of Apple. He sold his 10% share in the company 2 weeks after it was founded for $800. Oh man :( |
I seem to watch Pirates of Silicon Valley at least once a year. Now is this year's time. |
@brianthecoder: It seems to get good reviews. I was just browsing really though :) So many random Dummies books in that cat.. |
The top book in "Computer Science->Artificial Intelligence" on Amazon.co.uk is "iPod and iTunes for Dummies". |
