21 June 08 - 22:54Wow.

Americans, how can stuff like this be allowed? Is it really a productive use of your tax dollars to provide people with the avenue to be a partisan slimeball? Perhaps I just don't "get" the purpose of Congress.

04 June 08 - 20:14New Subaru coupe spy pictures

In the interest of making this blog more relevant to my new love affair with high-performance Japanese econoboxes, I bring you a much-linked set of pictures of the new Toyota/Subaru RWD coupe. I think I've found my next next car.

The front end reminds me of the Prelude, for some reason, and the rear reminds me of the Legacy, two coupes which I really like, and I'm not even really into coupes all that much. Hopefully the weight and performance improvements also make it over to the mainline 'preza and Legacy. Performance belongs in a hot hatch, dammit.

In the interest of disclosing how I managed to get my Eee set up with WPA2, here is the forum thread that sussed it for me.

The Eee is pretty awesome. Go pick one up!

Apparently if you're an atheist in Illinois you should be coerced and bullied into not testifying. It sounds reasonable then that atheists also shouldn't be allowed to own land, or have children.

This is so far beyond politics, it's not even funny anymore. She should be in prison.

What the hell?

Well, at least someone else feels the same way I do.

Bush found someone who was even stupider than he is. He must be so glad.

24 January 08 - 18:41Ta-Da List

Ruby on Rails types have been going on and on about how their language and toolkit reduces the agonizing pain of web development to a mere tedious, numb pain. To this effect, one of the forerunners of the entire RoR "revolution" (read: MVC), have shown off that they have created a multi-user TODO list in 579 lines of code.

This is impressive; unless you count the actual Ruby on Rails framework it's based heavily upon. Commenters point out that you can easily write Photoshop in this fashion in a mere four lines of code or less.

Perhaps 37signals' next project should be to reduce their self-congratulation level to something below that of the Ron Paul "supporters" on Digg.
