Peter's Laws, The Creed of the Sociopathic Obsessive Compulsive (by Peter Diamandis)

Peter’s Laws, by Peter Diamandis

If anything can go wrong, Fix It!!! (To hell with Murphy!) When given a choice – Take Both!! Multiple projects lead to multiple successes. Start at the top then work your way up. Do it by the book…but be the author! When forced to compromise, ask for more. If you can’t beat them, join them, [...]

Arc Attack Performing Dr Who

Arc Attack

Posted from Lambeth, England, United Kingdom. Came across Arc Attack several years back, and thought their music completely exciting despite it simply being an electric arc hooked to a midi table. But then found that they had a show featuring ADAM SAVAGE from the mythbusters. Now, considering that the Mythbusters is one of my favourit-est [...]

Everyone's had a teacher like that...

Pa. teacher strikes nerve with lazy whiners blog – Yahoo! News

Posted from Lambeth, England, United Kingdom.Pa. teacher strikes nerve with lazy whiners blog – Yahoo! News. Oh yeah. Tough love is not just good. It’s necessary.

A Facebook Comment of Mine 280111 – On RI GEP

Well, the fact that a large number of our old teachers left because they did not get to teach GEP classes exclusively (let’s not quote names) suggests a noticeable difference in the teacher-student interaction. I doubt there will ever be [...]

White Kid, Yellow Kid (Amy Chua Is a Wimp – NYTimes.com)

Posted from London, England, United Kingdom. White kid, yellow kid. I am a product of that culture. A culture where 2,000 math questions a night is a manageable endeavour. Ask an Asian parent, and she’ll say ‘Thank God it’s only math’. Propagating that oft-true stereotype, I’ll add that US arithmetic questions as a simple as [...]

Apple’s Insane Antenna Design and Test Labs

Source: Apple  - Antenna Design and Test Labs Oh my goodness – this raises my respect for apple a thousand-fold, despite all that antenna talk. Thank goodness i’m on the right bandwagon, at least for the time being. Yes, we could dismiss all this as pointless PR spin, given how the testing process still produced [...]

Audiophile Headphone Testing – Second Day of Testing at Jaben Audio

Went down for the second time to Jaben Audio at the Adelphi. Basically I’m looking to purchase a nice pair of headphones and a suitable amplifier for my university tenure. Having come from a very decent speaker set up (Bowers and Wilkins 803S), i do not, and probably cannot expect to be able to replicate [...]

Opportunity versus Karma

Posted from Lambeth, England, United Kingdom. Just had a random thought: Opportunity knocks. Karma hunts you down. (Therefore girlfriends are opportunities and wives, karma)

GTD – Garrulous Writing

Engrish - Racist Park in China

“Login” is not a verb

“Login” is not a verb. This site graciously explains a grammatical error we commonly encounter nowadays knowingly or not! Despite what many people –mostly in the computer field– think, “login” is not a verb. It’s simply not. Whether or not “login” is a word at all may spark a debate in some circles, but assuming [...]
