Gearing up for Google IO. May 6, 2010 - 8:49pm EDT. In a couple weeks, I'll be heading to San Francisco for the Google IO. Conference. Of particular interest to me is the talk on Appstats for Google App Engine. By none other than the father of the Python language, Guido van Rossum. I've personally done some tinkering with App Engine, and I have been supremely impressed with it. I've yet to produce any standalone apps worth mentioning with it, but I have contributed some work to an OpenID library.

I love my job. September 3, 2010 - 6:54pm EDT. I love my workplace (small company, young atmosphere) and my coworkers (many as strange as me). I get to do what I love - for a living - and I get to have awesome conversations like this with my peers. I'd rather live like hunter s thompson than fred rogers. Hunter s thompson was basically wolverine. You don't know that. I am going to come in there and stab you. And watch the mutant healing factor kick in. And watch you slowly bleed to death. I love my job.
