"+1 for save and invest. In CNBC columbia school QnA with Bill Gates and Warren Buffett, answering a question about ethics Warren Buffet said that ethics are best taught at home. I see a similar solution for 'Save and Invest' philosophy, it has to be taught at home and school. It will help the next generation. Educating the budding 'earners' is as important as educating the current 'earners'."

"I am all mac at home (even for working from home) but when I come into work I use a PC but its like the car license plate of a blue angels pilot that says 'my other ride is an F18'. Yeah I do find myself that fast on a mac for whatever reason, even though I have been using PCs for 10 years and a Mac just about 3 years. For the stuff I do at work I end up having to install our software on windows, OEL and some unix flavors. Our group has not yet migrated but many teams internally use the 'cloud' linux servers for development anyways. So the laptop/desktop really becomes a front end for accessing these servers, management tools, office, email etc I have done hack projects for Google Wave using Eclipse, Google Java App Engine on the Mac and I did not face any limitation. I guess for me Macs are more productive but at the end it might not be Mac vs PC rather what one is comfortable with."

"The way I see it is the next evolutionary stage for Enterprise Apps is Walk Up and Use. I don't mean just the interface but both IT perspective (cloud apps) and design perspective (simple apps). If the big corps (including Oracle) are late to this, startups will take advantage and do this. Like mint.com did to Quicken (i know its consumer product again) but lately I have been seeing lot of BI startups, like Indicee, which are doing exactly that."

I agree with you that Apple should care. However, Joe quit because he does not want a review process. He did not quit because bigger brands are getting easier review process or making more money or that many smaller shops are not making money. So in an ideal world, Apple should not care what apps get in and how much they make.

"Majority of my team still is with Eclipse but I like to try things around. Unknown territories are exciting! Moreover I am looking forward to all the internal integrations like plugins for ADE and bugdb (ex: check-in a change for a bug and automatically mark the bug fixed)."
- Kiran Patchigolla
"In Hyperion I used Eclipse/MyEclipse but this year I started using JDeveloper. Its a resource hog if you enable all the roles but in general any IDE I used in the past has been a resource hog. I like it overall. A side note: The disqus login to comment on the iPhone was unusable. It does not render correctly, however I am not sure its specific to your blog though."

"Robert I had similar impressions. I was using and hacking little bit with the dev sandbox. I felt it was too confusing for conversations but I do see a lot of power coming in the form of robots and gadgets. I wrote a little about liaise and google wave as a sample. http://bit.ly/q6MHZ"

Yep. Although, I share a house with a roommate. If I lived by myself, I would choose not to. As it is, I spend 90% of my time in my bedroom, so that's why.
- Derrick
We have one in ours, I didn't want it in there but the wife wanted it, so she wins :)
- Tsali, The Native of FF
No but i would have if i had a spare one. It's so nice being able to go to bed and watch tv on a cold winters night. Use the laptop quite a bit for watching downloaded TV but it's not the best viewing experience.
- Jamie Vidamour
I need a TV in my bedroom to help me go to sleep.
- Jonathan.Rivera
Nope. Used to, but then I moved to University and had to pay for a tv license for my dorm room so I decided not to have one. Don't miss it really :)
- Charlotte M
of course. that's how I watch Chelsea Lately every night before bed.
- sean808080
Yes. Mostly, to get news and weather in the mornings.
- Julie Barrett
from twhirl
yes - used to watch King of Queens reruns right before bedtime and when I don't want to watch those silly crime drama shows the wife likes
- Mark Bockenstedt
yes, but it is rarely on. In fact I turned it on this week and noticed the cable wasn't working and I had to wonder how long it has been that way
- RAPatton
no, and I don't have any TV of mine anywhere else (there is one in the living room that was left by the previous tennant and I just CBA to throw it out)
- mjc
I can't help but think of "Andy Richter Controls the Universe" here. If memory serves, Andy's character just came into a small windfall, and his plans included getting a *second* TV for the bedroom, which he would mount sideways beside his bed so he could watch TV while lying on his side.
- Andrew C
No, but only because we don't have enough power points in the bedroom, and no aerial point at all.
- Mellissa Claus
The way I see it is I am blessed to have un-interrupted work in this economy! Too much work is good now a days! Flexible schedule is the key for me. Almost every day I have to work with my offshore team in the night but its but then I do have flexible timings in the day time. I get to have a full hour lunch with folks, I get to catch up on latest and greatest in tech etc.

I don't like this... but think about it - Facebook was becoming quite like FriendFeed. However, Facebook is CLOSED, what I like about FriendFeed is being able to interact with lots of people that I haven't met IRL. I don't want these discussions to be taking place among my high school mates and coworkers.

I think this means facebook is getting ready to compete against Google Wave, not only against twitter the real threat in the horizon is Google Wave!.
- Carlos F. Sam Castillo
If Facebook effs up FriendFeed, someone else will build the same functionality. But I doubt FB will screw with it to the point they wreck it. 47 million is a lot of money, they won't be willy nilly with it.

I asked him if all the press your partners/competitors get due to their frequent downtime made him envious. I recommended one of the four pushes be a bad one.
- Louis Gray
@Ben - do you guys have/use a continuous build process and then push from dev to QA and/or to release/staging, and finally to production? Just curious to know how many layers you have before code is actually pushed into production.
