A Non-Programmer’s Apology, by Aaron Swartz. “When I go to programmer conferences, I’d rather skip out and talk politics than programming. And writing code, although it can be enjoyable, is hardly something I want to spend my life doing.” I notice that too for myself, but it’s not that bad yet.

Then they’ll raise their hands,
Sayin’ we’ll meet all your demands,
But we’ll shout from the bow your days are numbered.
And like Pharaoh’s tribe,
They’ll be drownded in the tide,
And like Goliath, they’ll be conquered.
— Bob Dylan, When the Ship Comes In

Take 42: vget, nice structure.
You changed my life
Came along in a time of strife
In hunger and need
You made my heart bleed
You changed my life
You changed my life
— Bob Dylan, You Changed My Life
Scripting the wmii-3 window manager with Ruby, Mauricio does it again. :-) (By the way, I’m the one to show him wmii in first place…) Great stuff.
Adventures with an ice pick, a short history of lobotomy. WJW. Don’t read after eating.
