They Stood For Hours, Drinking In Every Word…

Mon, 12 May 2008 14:59:19 PDT
It was one of the most amazing things I had ever seen. Last February, during our New Beginnings event at the Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando, one of my guest speakers was Wine Library TV’s Gary Vaynerchuk.

But it’s what happened AFTERWARDS that really made me shake my head… Hours after the day’s activities had come to a close, I was walking past the empty ballroo

The ostensible topic is that discoveries and inventions are often made contemporaneously by multiple people. However droll and obvious the observation may be, Gladwell spins his yarn in posh New Yorker fashion. A sip of the wine: In the nineteen-sixties, the sociologist Robert K. Merton wrote a famous essay on scientific discov

Thinking in JVM languages

Sun, 11 May 2008 23:26:58 PDT
When I find a language expressive enough to implement the programming idioms succinctly, I like to use the language in my projects. But I constantly have to thunder on myself the fact that a project development is a team game and the language has to be usable by all members of the development team.

Gas prices, mass transit ridership up nationwide

Sun, 11 May 2008 21:53:36 PDT
Gas prices have been on the climb in America for years, but investment in mass transit has lagged far behind acceptable levels. Most major cities in the country have only nascent systems, and while new light rail and other mass transit networks are starting to spring up around America, it’s all been a bit too little way too late for a nation long dependent on cars. Now, though, with gas prices hitting record highs and showing no signs of ever coming back down, the people once behind their whe
