Apple's Mistake - http://news.ycombinator.com/item...
Jonathan Le Plastrier liked this
"I found it an interesting read. I especially liked the sentiment, "An organization that wins by exercising power starts to lose the ability to win by doing better work.", which I firmly believe. However I don't see how PG shows that Apple is somehow winning by exercising power. Can someone clarify this? PG even? I don't hear any explanation of how their exercise of power is helping them win."

@stevedekorte The author of isolator has been pretty helpful to me. He might respond well to a feature request.
@stevedekorte have you tried 'isolator'? It will fade or blur the background windows.

Earthships!

Yes! Have you been there?

Nope-- but I have read a lot about earthships (and other 'handmade' building techniques). Did you go inside any? What did you think-- ready to grab some tires and go off grid?

I went inside the 'visitor center' which is itself and earthship. It was pretty impressive. I also spent some time doing mud plasterwork at the zen refugue, so yes - I was quite inspired, although it's probably easier in NM than in the Bay Area.

Vacation in NM was amazing. Coming home to a bright sunny day and the smell of the ocean in the bay area, just as good!
Skinny dipping in the rio grande :-)
Be careful to avoid the pollution.
- Jonathan Le Plastrier
Very nice. We were actually in some hot springs that outlet into the river, and only spent a few seconds in the actual (ice cold) rio grande.

Good work. I recommend not bothering to reintroduce it to check your results.

Re: "I am having trouble concentrating and coffee might help" - it probably would help. In theory, stimulants when needed is not such a bad idea. Coffee is an addictive drug, though - so use with caution - http://www.mycaffeineaddiction.com/caffein...
