He stole the inital Os for windows from steve jobs, back when steve jobs was working at atari as a programmer.
A swing and a miss; Steve Jobs ripped the concept of a GUI-driven OS off of the GUI developed at Xerox's PARC lab, just like everyone else did.

Finally finished Advance Wars: Days of Ruin almost 2 years after starting it. I don't know why I ever stopped playing to begin with... probably school related. What a rad freaking game.
A rad game with shit-terrible dialog I couldn't skip through fast enough to avoid reading D: my brain!

hi..
What are you currently reading?
i herd u liek dystopian fiction
I love 1984, this precedes it and imo is just as awesome, albeit in a more slapyouintheface way. For example: literal glass houses.
But that's not what I'm reading atm, right now I'm reading Working: People Talk About What They Do All Day and How They Feel About What They Do by recently-deceased radio pimp "Studs" Terkel (fucking badass name), basically it contains interviews of a bunch of people from different walks of life about their daily jobs, only more interesting than that sounds. Ever wonder what a day in the life of a trash collector, stock broker, prostitute, a pianist, a CEO, or some other job is like from a cynical, I've-been-doing-this-shit-forever point of view? This book can tell you what it was like (in the mid 70s).
I read this in high school for a journalism class but kind of rushed through it and am absorbing/appreciating it a lot more now.

Please consider donating to the Haiti earthquake situation!
It is so awesome to see such unanimous empathy and charity for the earthquake victims <3 and big asspats to you Feld, and anyone else who has motivated another to donate.
If you're in America and want to donate in more ways than just cash, people eligible for blood donation with a type of O negative can check out http://www.redcrossblood.org/ for information on giving blood in their area. While the Red Cross generally speaking has a smorgasbord of blood reserves in different types, in disaster situations like these there are often thousands of emergency situations in which the patient's blood type isn't readily available and there is no time to test for it, making your O- blood priceless beyond measure for providing life-saving transfusions to those with the greatest need. Plus, needles are cool.

Standards
I hold myself up to high standards. They're not always realistic, but that's kind of the point. They don't serve to evaluate my ability at any given time (though that's a plus) so much as to help me improve.
Given: If I'm at a certain skill level before tackling a project and I aim to create something at a much higher skill level then the result will most likely be something in between.
Hypothesis: If I hold myself to high standards, that "something in between" will be greater than if I had expected less of myself. That's the general idea, anyway.
I have pretty high expectations of others too. However, outside of friends and some other colleagues, it's pretty rare that I will give a big enough shit about their work to really flesh out a good critique when asked for feedback. Unless it's a genuinely good effort, in which case I get a little excited and motivated to engage them about their work as if the energy they spent making it magically juices me up. On the other hand, if it doesn't seem like they really worked at it, I get bored and/or crabby that they're wasting my time with it and will probably just comment from what I see as a more relaxed, general set of standards with the aim of shutting them up.
It sounds jerky I know, but it just comes from a few years of attending an art school full of semi-retarded asslings who, instead of spending their time practicing their fundamentals, wasted it coming up with excuses for their half-assery of something they're supposed to be really passionate about. /shrug
