Wondering if sharks are fish. Am actually in the Natural History Museum right now, but actually it's probably faster to Google.

Why Google's Closure is so named: "Closure was an attempt to bring a closure to this mess. The name is also a play on the programming language feature as well as the desire to make our js library be a closure of all the existing js code at Google."

cashto's blog : It's OK Not to Write Unit Tests - http://blogs.msdn.com/cashto...
Fairly decent anti-unit-test article: "There's this theory out there that Agile projects can refactor fearlessly because there's this immaculate suite of tests that can sound the alarm the second the smallest regression gets introduced. But anyone who's actually tried it knows that it's mostly just a fantasy. Unit tests tend to overspecify behavior—they test implementation details that don't matter, rather than fixed contracts that do."

Investing in Superstars « The Emergent Fool - http://emergentfool.com/2009...
"Imagine you are in your early twenties, out of college several years and your best friend, who recently came into an inheritance of $300K cash told you they could think of no better way to invest the money than to invest it in you. Not the company you started, not as a loan, but invest it in YOU, as if you were a startup. In return your friend said all they wanted was 3% of your gross income for the rest of your life. Do you think you would take it?"
