Back in the saddle. Getting ready to get my code on. The BOS conference had me wiped out last night. The talks by Seth Goden and YoungMe Moon had my cerebral cortex inflamed with ideas. I slept it off though.
Read and understand that in 5 years the internet as you know it now will be gone. http://io9.com/5610328... Technology is great. It gives everyone the false impression that life is going to be easier. I hope that as a result we revert back to using gopher and news groups.
Perfect way to stymie innovation. The patent system is dire need of an overhaul.

Had to drop off my little girl at day care today. It was her first day. That kind of shit will never get easy. It sucks royally that both parents have to work, which is compounded with a forced trust of the people at the day care.
I would love nothing more than to see some actual competition between palm, or android based phones against the iPhone. I am an iPhone user but it irks me to no end how closed off apple is when it comes to developing apps. http://www.techcrunch.com/2009...
What a fucking idiot. http://www.journal-news.net/page... What is wrong with today's youth? If you want to be a thief be a thief, if you want to be narcissistic then be a ____________ (fill in blank)
Politician - in reference to the married 54-year-old Republican state representative from California who resigned after being caught on an open microphone bragging about his sexual exploits with two mistresses.

To steal a line from something I saw somewhere on the internet after this story broke (I think I saw it on Gizmodo), it's only a matter of time before someone does a play-by-play on Twitter while committing a felony.

Despite the laugh, I wish police would keep this stuff secret so more people could be stupid and get caught. Although, I'm assuming the stupid people read articles posted on Facebook.

I have been programming for 15 years, this is why it appears easy for me to do. It does not mean I need suggestions from you with your experience in sales on how to code the requested task. Please go call someone and sell them something that doesn't exist so that you can come back and ask me "how hard would it be..."
Apple was foolish to use this network. It is not the fastest or most dependable network. I am not arguing in favor of other vendors but AT&T sucks ass.

Why AT&T Killed Google Voice and innovation. These kind of obstacles will put AT&T and other vendors into the same downward spiral as the auto industry. - http://online.wsj.com/article...
http://gizmodo.com/5342954... A lot of it is probably just standard PR misdirection, but both AT&T and Apple are claiming that the Google Voice rejection was a unilateral move by Apple with no input by AT&T.
- Brian Chang
Some people would rather believe Apple than their lying eyes.

I'm glad I don't have either an apple product or an AT&T account then. I use Google Voice all the time. Not so much to get free calls, but to use that ONE number.

The thing I don't like about the UK mobile phone system is the sucky 07 code shit, where it costs an arm and a leg to call anyone from a landline or other network.
- Ian May
Here I can call anyone on my mobile network for free at any time. My plan gives me 1200 mins a month for other networks. It also gives me 10 favorite numbers I can add in, that are free at any time. Adding my skype to go number, means I can call the UK from my mobile at no extra cost, as long as it's a landline. I haven't had any overage charges in years, and we don't have a landline at all now - that would be a waste of money, and AT&T are expensive too.
- Ian May
If wi-fi was to spread even more, I'd ditch the cellphone altogether, and simply use my netbook and skype for everything.

Fuck him. People like this deserve to go to prison, maybe the stupid bastard will figure out that being an affluent football player and role model is better than being a thug. Live the thug life and pay the consequences asshole. Now have a big gulp from your tin mug of shut the fuck up and bond with your cell mates

I am kind of book marking this for myself. Some of the designs are a bit outlandish; however, I do dig the rubber hose chair. Simplicity.
