  • Who’s afraid of the Big Wolf? Not me.

    Just for fun compare this to this . MSFT is going exactly nowhere. And so is the company. They have plenty of dominance to make noise and plenty of cash to try out things but they have been failing to come up with something big besides Windows and Office for a long time now. There…

  • .The .Product

    Ok. I haven’t posted in a while and today’s link is about 5 years old. However, its still cool and its still something anyone who is into programming or graphics should see.

  • Jung

    I was writing an email to a friend when I realized that what I was looking for was something Jung had said in “The Undiscovered Self”. So rather than trying to say anything original I just typed in the words and sent them off, which of course makes it all to easy to just paste…

  • The Vanishing Objectivity

    This is a review of a book based on a review of a book I haven’t read. The book is by Jared Diamond and the review is by Malcolm Galdwell. First let me get a few things out of the way. I really liked The Tipping Point by Gladwell I really liked Guns, Germs, and…
