A "cache"-centric, non-bloated CMS (in Go?).
Another Dr. Willy ringtone here.
As a female computer scientist, I would be very sad if a speaker I was very much looking forward to hearing at a conference opted out because there happened to be no women on the panel. This seems to be an inappropriate…
Until you change what those functions do, and then the function name lies.

Learning new languages and SDKs (Go & Android). Planning the amazing hack of my Nexus Q.
I think there should be a distinction made in this discussion between the technical use of dates for the purpose of storage, and display of dates for the end user. Why don't we display dates as seconds since epoch?…
Why I don't wear the same shirt everyday: I think shopping for clothes is fun. I'm not awake enough in the morning to do anything but pick out clothes. My company doesn't have branded T-Shirts? I guess if I tried to do…
I have a Nexus Q from I/O and was never able to try it because they wouldn't let me download the app in my country. ... time to see if I can hack it, I guess.
I have seen children become bored with opening gifts on Christmas because there were just so many of them. From what I could gather, the family really could not afford all the gifts either (they'd be paying off their…
"how do we make it more likely?" Sometimes it's not just a matter of being intrinsically motivated, and no matter what you sacrifice, you never seem to have enough. "Many young people, who have the ability to attend…
I am rather apprehensive about something of the opposite effect. I'm a chick and I'll be attending Google I/O this year . It'll be my first tech conference. I looked at the pictures from last year and it appears men are…
Sounds like fun! Where do I sign up? I actually spent more than an hour on the phone with some of the call-you-up-because-you've-won-something-but-you-can't-have-it-unless-you-give-us-money scams once. I repeatedly gave…
This article resonates with me, I really appreciate it! I would like to add a source or two of grumpiness. To the "Work cross-functionally" section: it is possible to be injected into the creative process too early and…
I listened to the X Minus 1 version of "Mars is Heaven" when I was 12 or something. Gave me nightmares!
Imagine having nothing that you love to do, and imagine the things that you previously loved to do are now laborious and draining, no matter the positive things you tell yourself about them. Think of something you…
I just buy my clothes in outfits. For each pair of pants there is at least one sweater and at most two that will go with it. I don't try to mix and match to make new combinations on the fly. When I wake up, I think…
Yes. My mom said "Now what do I do?" when there was a box on her screen that said "Click Next to Continue" and that's all that could be done. I've been trying to teach her to read the boxes that come up before she calls…
I couldn't agree more with Mr. Torvalds. I'm relieved to know I'm not the only one - I was thinking maybe I was too picky, or too dumb to set Gnome 3 up the way I wanted it. I spent a half hour searching and Googling to…
A dialling modem is my favourite, followed closely by the dot-matrix printer. My dear mother used to create multi-page decorative banners for our birthdays and print them with the old dot-matrix printer. We'd colour the…

Wave was scraped a while ago and taken completely offline just recently. I loved the per-character live action, but the rest of the UX was non-revolutionary and mostly a disaster.
I have three monitors and it saves me a tonne of headache. Left to right: 1. (Ubuntu) Project Firebug Browser, Reference Browser, FTP 2. (Ubuntu) Source Editor, Email, Console 3. (Win 7) Photoshop, IE Tester, MS Office…
What's the analogy for really, really bad managers who pass everything through, but not before completely misunderstanding the request and garbling it beyond recognition such that the developers deliver something…
I took 4 spins waiting, but I got my ticket at 16 minutes past the hour.
