So is this really my last night in New York City?
wizzninetynine:
It’s seems very surreal and I’m thinking about not going to bed at all. It’s 3.30am right now and I just want to feel every single remaining minute.
Its crazy man. You’ll get home and certain things will trigger the most vivid memories. For example, I listened to the Kings of Leon album Only By The Night just about everyday on the way to work and now anytime I hear any of...
really Apple?
To max out the ram from apple for a new Mac Pro (32 gb) it costs $3,400 (three thousand four hundred dollars*)
To buy the ram yourself costs about $700 (seven hundred dollars*)
thats almost 5 times as much!
on a side note, I need to start charging more for installing ram on peoples computer… or at least start charging…
*I wrote it out to make sure there was no thought that I had...

david:
This is so sweet. Thank you so much, Rich and team.
Heading into 2011, Tumblr has a full tank of funding petrol and is racing full speed up the page view growth slope. Content curation is expected to be a big trend of 2011, so next year could be another tipping point again for this trendy New York startup.
I don’t think we could possibly be more excited about this next year.
And I...

I'm on the hunt for the best bargin finder
When I grocery shop I usually just buy stuff that is on sale. I have things that I like but my cart/basket is usually made up of 10% stuff I specifically wanted and the rest is stuff that was on sale when I was there so I got it. I categorize purchases by either meal or type. For example, Beverages is a type. I like to have a stocked fridge of beverages so I try to get as much as possible for the...

Normal convo with the boss might go as follows:
Me: I like qrcodes…
Him: great build proof of concept
… a few days later…
Me: I made this qr code generator…
Him: great, put the output on the main page.
Unlike at school, I can actually see my work put to use!

Regular Expressions
Regular Expressions are amazing… confusing to read/write but once you get a hang of the syntax they are so incredibly useful. They make creating/using custom templates so easy.
Perhaps I will make a madlibs web app to demo this… hmmm interesting…
On CMS
Content Management Systems will be the death of me… I hate them so much. I do not understand why they are so persnickety… why can’t they all be more like tumblr?
also, if tumblr could upload presentations it would be amazing.
Parallels 6
Parallels 6 has one of the nicest implementations of deploying new VM’s I have seen in a while. Granted the last one I liked was a tower with two hotswapable harddrive bays and a copy on norton ghost… Oh how I miss that lab.
I have to test a slew of different software and then pick one to recommend for our new CMS. Because each of the different software suites were designed for the...
