Mean girls bullies and bitches that hit
It is always important to remember, haters are miserable all by their damned selves—it stems from not being properly brought up (poor them) and deep-rooted insecurities. It might be because their career path didn’t go the way they planned. No one dreams of being an unemployed twenty-something living on Mom’s sofa. No one strives to attend online law school (Wait, no, really?). No one...

SUPERMECHANICAL.BLOG: We outsourced the future. →
supermechanical:
…product and process innovation are intertwined. So the decline of manufacturing in a region sets off a chain reaction.
— Gary Pisano and Willy Shih, “Restoring American Competitiveness”

Sometimes I wish life is a bit easier and people would be kinder but (they will) never be. Some people are meant to not be in your life, for the stress and negativity, cruel intention and nasty behavior, the list can go on. Being deep doesn’t make you better than anyone. Being sensitive doesn’t mean you care for others - maybe your own feelings. Being angry and manipulative...

We’ve employed an invite-only model since the early days of the site with a nice degree of success; it’s helped keep the community highly-focused, and ensured that only developers and designers are…

Clients From Hell: My client regularly downloads... →
My client regularly downloads thumbnails off of Google Image Search and emails them to me to post on his site.
Me: “I’m sorry but I can’t post these on your site.”
Client: “What? Why not?”
Me: “For one thing, that’s copyright infringement, which is illegal, and for another, these are WAY too…

Client: “What is going on with my website? It looks all wrong!”
Me: “It was working just fine yesterday, let’s take a look.”
Us: “Let’s take a look… (We download a page, check out the code). Well, it looks as if someone’s gone in and deleted some of the code that makes the site work.”

Stay hungry
There is an algorithm of sorts between hungry eyes and exceptional achievement. A correlation. As long as a person remains committed to a slightly impossible dream– to a breakthrough in the arts, business, science–that seems to be beyond their talent, knowledge, and ultimately their grasp, they have the possibility of making history. Or at the very least, of affecting positive change.

Get it together
The article “What is nostalgia good for?” from BBC News discusses a recent report from the financial services firm Standard Life, the book Get It Together by Damian Barr, and research conducted by psychologist Clay Routledge at North Dakota State University that may provide insight into why we accumulate so many sentimental items and have even greater difficulty letting them go.

By 1984, even as Microsoft was already raking in the cash, Bill Gates exuded pure passion for the software that would turn his company into one of the world’s most successful and well-known enterprises. He was well on his way to becoming the world’s richest man, but the Harvard drop-out was still a hacker and hard-core tech geek at heart. So forget picking up stereotypical wealthy businessman...
