my idea of an awesome saturday night? working on Stack Overflow! ADDING MORE AWESOME!!

oh, interesting, youtube has moved to an "only show significantly upvoted comments, kinda hide the rest" model. Good call.

r @dswersky no, replying to random emails makes him seem crazy, capricious, and arbitrary. Just like Apple itself.

So many levels of wrongness: http://yfrog.com/2m26457010j (via @Ihnatko)

Apple's walled garden bothers me a lot less than Facebook's. That's because Apple doesn't hate their customers.

why is Steve Jobs randomly replying to emails from random users? This is just weird. http://goo.gl/R8tO

aw, sweet, I found a 27" monitor with my preferred 2048x1152 resolution! Here's hoping 3 of them fit on my desk http://goo.gl/R9T5

I do admire the chutzpah of furries. Now there's a group of people unafraid to let their freak flag fly. high. http://goo.gl/lDiq

I think for my midlife crisis -- 40 in December -- I'll become a furry.

This phone sucks. It only has three "gees". I need, like twelve of 'em.

being able to drag and drop into gmail has been a godsend. I never realized how much I missed that.

woo! we're the venture capital "deal of the week" http://goo.gl/s4U3

FYI -- our automated build system ain't gonna pull from a random dev. It's gonna pull from central. Which is hard when central is down.

♺ @Johngcole: My Ex-Wife's Wedding Dress http://bit.ly/bAGzzu

there's no avoiding that central hub in the wheel if you work with people remotely. Pure "distributed" is a bit of a fantasy.

it's sort of telling that when our "distributed" source control is down, it kinda.. prevents us from working in practice.

@davebritton send me a copy so I can see it

@davebritton what email? not clear.

@10thApeRag dude I think the IPHONE is too heavy. Yes, I am a wuss, but still.

I like what the iPad *represents* but the current implementation, not so much. It's just.. OK. I am sure v3 and v4 will be amazing.

my official verdict on iPad is a resounding "meh". Too heavy, too low res, aspect ratio problems. Wait for V2, like iPhone.

campfirenow.com is great but the "who's here" is worse than useless. It's like friggin' Weekend at Bernies http://goo.gl/2wHG

in all seriousness, one of the first things I thought after having my iPhone for a week: "I'll never have to pay Nintendo another dime."

so little time, so much to not give a crap about.
