10K Apart | Inspire the web with just 10K. →
Seriously tempted to try to pull off our community calendar idea with Sinatra, MongoDB and jQuery (which, thankfully, doesn’t count against the 10k, which makes things a LOT easier).
Don’t let ASCAP’s president be silenced! -... →
I love this response. It’s pitch-perfect when presented with an old media idiot. The best response when presented with an idiot is not to try to shut them up. It’s to let them declare their stupidity from the rooftops and then happily point their lunacy out to them. Love it!
cuptocup asked: Hurray for Kevin following my tumblr! I guess that wasn't a question, was it? Oh, that one was.

I don’t know what I can add to this other than I’ve worked with brilliant women in dozens of disciplines throughout my career and think they’re more than equal to the men in the field - in many cases, more so.
I don’t have a problem with Google trying to get more equal representation at JSConf, or anywhere else. I applaud it. The homogenous nature of the tech world,...

Profiles in Mileage: Irv Gordon, the 2.8 Million... →
I love this story. This guy has put almost 3 million miles on his car and does all routine maintenance himself. I’m not sure why I love it, but I do. I almost got choked up reading it.

Letter to the Sun:

Back off, summer orb!
Yeah… another one.
A Haiku
Balloons under ice
do not float, but do not sink.
They are suspended.
I’ve taken up the challenge to make all of my Skype status messages either extremely cryptic or haikus. This is the first haiku and I liked it so much, well, here it is.
Sunrise on Tybee →
I got up really early this morning to go take pictures of the sunrise. It’s something I’ve been thinking about doing pretty much since we moved here. Since I don’t have anywhere I need to…
Kanban development oversimplified: a simple... →
Kanban is really interesting. It’s agile development in its simplest form without the process overhead of scrum (sprint planning, estimates, etc). Are you doing Kanban? Did you switch from Scrum? How did it go?
These United States | A Take Away Show | Water & Wheat (by La Blogotheque)
I don’t think I’d ever actually heard These United States before this. Good stuff.
Rails Resources →
Shawn Medero asked for some Rails resources on Twitter last night, and here they are. All of the blogs are from my feed reader and the links are things that are pretty much always on one of my…
10 Years →
I’ve been blogging, right here, for ten years. The first post on lawver.net was on 07/20/2000 and didn’t say a whole lot. Since then, though, Jen and I have posted 2,631 entries. Jen didn’t start…
Thievery Corporation Soundtrack for a BUCK?! →
I didn’t believe it either, but there it is… I haven’t listened to it, but Thievery Corporation = awesome, so I took the chance. Again, it was only a buck.
