When all is summed up, a man never speaks of himself without loss; his accusations of himself are always believed, his praises never.— Montaigne, French essayist, 1533-92
The game is afoot!
Also, I’m super stoked about the CSS 2.1 appendices.
Also, I just lost the game.
A conversation I have every month or so
Me: (tries to visit a local restaurant’s website via iPhone)
Restaurant website: I require Flash. Fuck off.
Me: I just want to know how late you’re open.
Website: Nope.
Me: But I’m on my phone. Don’t you have a little “HTML Version” link up in the corner or something?
Website: I’m ignoring you.
And that’s where I switch to Yelp or OpenTable, since both are happy to provide me with an awesome iPhone experience.
On the button seek-time latency front: if I’m nuking something for 6 minutes or less, I’ll hit [minute plus] x 6 instead of hunting for the numbers and the start button.
Dear Apple Store employees,
When you say “let me look at it”, please note that there is a definite distinction between “let me look at it so I can help you” and “let me look at it so I can check if you’re a moron”. I promise it’s not the latter, so you’re wasting my time if you don’t mean the former.
Thank you for taking 20 minutes of my time to verify my claim that the blinky lights fail to come on when you plug in my AirPort Express. I already knew that. The least you could have done was replace my obviously defective hardware instead of making me set up a Genius Bar appointment for tomorrow.
Love, bob
He who would do some great thing in this short life, must apply himself to the work with such a concentration of his forces as to the idle spectators, who live only to amuse themselves, looks like insanity.— Some guy named John Foster (prob’ly this one) doesn’t think I’m crazy.
