Protip: Don't work in an industry which requires interacting with people and getting their trust, "dude". You aren't cut out for it.

I have four cats and they are all indoors, so I guess I'm safe. But even if they weren't indoors, and I was vulnerable to this parasite, it wouldn't matter. I love them too much. The heart overrules the head in this matter.

Sorry. I'm not leaving Flickr. It's one of my favorite spots on the Internet. I love the community aspect of the site and the countless quality (and not so quality) Creative Commons contributions. I have spent more hours than I'd care to ad

The horror that has been going on in Syria for months is beyond comprehension. I personally don't know what to do but pray for the people. Tensions are electric in the Middle East. Rumor is Isreal will strike Iran soon to stop their nuclear

Filter being your conscious mind. Sometimes when I read or write, it's with a voice I haven't heard before. It doesn't sound authentic to me. That's my mind being loud, and it acts as a dirty filter that inhibits pure words from flowing fre

Btw, never take compliments like "brilliant" and "ingenious" too seriously. These words get bandied about much too often, and it's hardly ever appropriate.

Sounds like there's an ego issue here. Not ego as in "I'm so great, look at me" but ego as a self identity that wasn't there before. You're writing through a filter now (a personality you've constructed) whereas before you were writing in a

Oh thank God we as a consumer society are trying to sweep this issue under the rug. It's starting to ruin the enjoyment of my Apple products. Those so called hard working conditions where poor Chinese people work 16 hour days 7 days a week

Yes, I use Blekko regularly. I'm often (but not always) pleasantly surprised with it's search results. The slashes take some getting used to, but Blekko is worth an honest go.

Is this your subtle and twisted way of rationalizing your conscience away? Will this make the purchase of your next Apple product easier? Tell yourself anything you want, but you're going to have blood on your hands if you continue to suppo

In a way, I actually agree with this statement. Here's my reasoning: RIM's main manufacturing plant is in Waterloo Ontario. They also have a plant in Dallas, Hungary and Mexico. They offer good wages and excellent working conditions. That's

What's tragic is that there are some folks who can't afford to have badly needed dental work done. Hard to believe, because the pain of my recent toothache hit these incredible high notes that literally buckled my knees. Great post. Thanks

Just received confirmation that RIM's main manufacturing plant is in Waterloo. They also have a plant in Dallas, Hungary and Mexico. A person in RIM management has told me the costs on RIM devices are typically higher because they stay awa

RIM manufactures their smartphones on-site in Waterloo Ontario Canada (I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong). I have a friend and a cousin who work at RIM and working conditions and wages are excellent. I know for a fact I will nev

Nice job on the app. I'm not a photographer but I think this app will come in handy anyway.

The first thing I recommend you do is increase your self esteem. Respect yourself and the hard work you've put into your craft a little more, and you will never ask this question again.

If instead of a ring it taught you a new French word, then that would be something, but this would drive me insane. Awesome landing page though!

I've always taken "kill Hollywood" as a call to reinvent entertainment and come up with fresh alternatives to the current garbage. And oldstrangers nailed it with his iTunes comment. Ugh. Can't stand that software.

The answer is right under our nose. Duck Duck Go and Blekko are both excellent and constantly improving. They just need more time (and a lot more users).

I did something like this writing my first book Zero to Superhero: http://zerotosuperhero.com I'd wake up a 3 am every morning (except Sunday) and write until about 6 am, which is when I got ready for my 7 am shift. I agree with the autho

RIM is one of those rare companies that have the ability to gloat whilst having their ass handed to them.

My question is: why don't we show more empathy towards animals? The experimentations and vivisections, urban sprawl and deforestation, the abandonment of pets when they become inconvenient - we as humans don't consider the cruelty of our ac

Interesting how that is. I thought the writing was particularly good, and I make my living writing for the web.

No, it's not "of course it's because of the cost" because it could have been for another reason, and (thank God) the article wasn't about why Google would cut back on a perk. If it was, I wouldn't have read it.

The article isn't about why Google cut costs like free cafeteria food. It's about an employee agreeing to work somewhere that is reputed to be "world class" because they were promised a benefit and then that benefit was taken away.

No. Not seriously. You missed the point of her article. The point is she got screwed over by Google. What she was promised she didn't receive.

Let's dismiss this article and move on. PG has made an important invitation to all entrepreneurs within earshot and this article just adds noise.
