Are you sure it was just because of that one photo and not the story line or anything else?
Re:Is Science As Important As Football? on Thursday June 04, 2009 @02:03PM (#641873)
Interesting analogy. I would say the danger isn't quite in students injuring themselves in the classroom as much as it is giving destructive chemicals to students. Sure some of them can handle it, but the deviant ones will create havoc given the opportunity. In football there is a certain physical discipline allowed, where as in science its just the principals office, which can be better than class. Good analogy, but I think far from raising the argument...

Why do you use Quicksilver over Spotlight?

Ask Mac Users: What Do You Keep In Your Dock?

Re:Ask HN: How do you design your web pages? on Monday May 11, 2009 @03:40PM (#604146)
Although this is the more hands off approach, if you have a mac, get familiar with RapidWeaver. I actually started learning web design with RapidWeaver and it was great. Since then I moved onto writing my own code and I discovered that using custom code inline with RapidWeaver is a great approach. Rather than rip off other ideas, gain powerful functionality and create your beautiful design.

I like the concept just because it is built around twitter. I don't tweet myself, but I feel like it adds something to the twitter experience. There was an article talking about how twitter only has a 25% retention rate in their second month and sites like this might help that number get better.
