Paul Graham is way too obsessed with startups though, he's missing interesting parallels and contrasts as a result
Reading http://www.paulgraham.com/h... I am reminded of outsourcing and cottage industries, the rise and fall of big industry
@jorendorff I only want Ctrl-PageUp to work consistently; I hate going through tabs and flash grabbing they keyboard when passing through.
another example of http://ur1.ca/05d7 weird form of story telling: http://ur1.ca/05d7
These weird reddit threads are like collaborative story telling with voting: http://ur1.ca/05d2
I really wish keys like Ctrl-W/PageUp/Down worked consistently in Firefox. Flash, location bar, etc, should never be able to override them
@abbywilliamson Now that I think about it, "takeaway" the noun bothers me terrible, "take away" the verb doesn't bother me at all.
Something about the term "takeaway" really bothers me. This seems irrational. It's like it's a signal-word, of what I can't quite describe
On a mailing list someone calls solar panels "eco bling".
@drewp HTTP access; you mean just an HTTP API similar to IMAP? That'd be cool, but it doesn't actually get me much closer to awesomeness.
@jorendorff that post made me upgrade. But once I upgraded it was underwhelming, it didn't *feel* any better, and it needs to.
Huckabee doesn't want to be labelled a homophobe. I agree he his not. Homophobia is not the same as bigotry, and he's simply a bigot.
Huckabee is rather obnoxious, pontificating on truisms. He's all truthy bullshit.
Tried Thunderbird 3 beta... unimpressed :( Feels like Thunderbird, and I'm getting tired of Thunderbird.
@abbywilliamson Look at the links in http://en.wikipedia.org/wik... - "pejorative", "fictional character" etc. All boring!
hmm... now identi.ca is shortening my URLs even when I have available characters
Yay, working again (with http://ur1.ca/03f3)
Blast, my identi.ca Ubiquity command isn't working since I updated to 0.1.3rcwhatever.
@mpirnat thanks, this worked well: http://tinyurl.com/6f3j4n (@scrollie: I tried twitterfeed, but it never posted anything)
In a blog post when a common phrase is linked, it's to some interesting page related to the post; in WikiPedia it is always a boring link
