Reality show
—
in PonderThinking about my doctor’s reply to my email. She typed this on her blackberry and I am way impressed. It’s longer than the snippets I’m quoting here.

Designer who can code or programmer who can design?
—
in DesignSome articles like “We don’t hire designers who can’t code” still make me realize how things have changed or wonder if there’s some kind of generation thing I can’t catch.

Unfortunately, it’s not too easy because: (1) Designing for, say, 1144px on Pixelmator makes the canvas look as small as this: I’m not sure if I’m being

Is he my lebenslangerschicksalsschatz?
—
in LiveFor anyone who’s watched the first episode of the current season of How I Met Your Mother, you’ll know what a Lebenslangerschicksalsschatz is. Klaus: Lebenslangerschicksalsschatz is not something that develops over time. It is something that happens instantaneously.
