Beautiful Day at the Dog Park (by Kelsey Wynns)

Ouch. I’ve been getting hammered at work recently because of this. :-(
This sums it up perfectly.
Some of these are pretty sweet game ideas.
“The “px” unit in CSS doesn’t really have anything to do with screen pixels, despite the poorly chosen name. It’s actually an non-linear angular measurement.”
Who knew?
I really like this idea. I’ve been having a hard time finding quiet time to myself to work on side projects.
I’m not really a morning person—but I secretly wish I was. Maybe this is just the thing I need..

One former executive described how the company relied upon a Chinese factory to revamp iPhone manufacturing just weeks before the device was due on shelves. Apple had redesigned the iPhone’s screen at the last minute, forcing an assembly line overhaul. New screens began arriving at the plant near midnight.
A foreman immediately roused 8,000 workers inside the company’s dormitories, according to the executive. Each employee was given a biscuit and a cup of tea, guided to a workstation and within half an hour started a 12-hour shift fitting glass screens into beveled frames. Within 96 hours, the plant was producing over 10,000 iPhones a day.”
It boggles the mind..
The difference between “doing agile” and “being agile”.
Edit: Reminds me of this Steve Yegge classic and it’s follow up.
