And not only that, I feel like it should be accepted that Jobs was able to really accomplish things at the level at which he did _because_ of the others helping behind the scenes.


Haha, wow. Look at those chairs. So frugal!


I agree. I don't see how one could claim Vishal is unable to focus on a task at hand when he is able to devote hours to perfecting his filmmaking.


I really don't see what's so bad about the weather. I grew up in Florida for most of my life, so some people may think I'm crazy to say this. The weather in Florida was usually too hot for me, and living around here I feel like I get a good balance of seasons (no season in Florida!). This fall has been amazing! Nothing wrong with a bit of snow, too, even though last winter was pretty crazy (my first winter here). I feel like I drove better than locals, and I'm a Floridian who had never driven in snow before. I gave up counting how many cars I saw abandoned off the side of the road after, I presume, they had lost control.


Hard Times Cafe is pretty dang good, too. Chili Mac! Cheap, filling, tasty.

We, The Pizza is brand new and has some good slices. Good Stuff Eatery burgers next door are really good.

I think the best meal I've had in the area, yet, though, has been a burger at Ray's Hell Burger in Arlington.


Even if you think you might not end up doing something totally profound, why live life as such a pessimist? That's certainly no fun at all.


http://thesixtyone.com seems to be doing just that.


Do you have any good examples/tips?


Not to mention a very cool wife, though I couldn't really say much beyond what I've seen on their respective sites.


Which podcast? TWiT? I haven't found a more entertaining (and somewhat educational) podcast than that, including other non-tech-related ones. I'm probably very uninformed, though, so I'd like to hear which others might be worthwhile.


Here are a few I enjoy:

Techzing

Mixergy

Radiolab

Floss Weekly

Stack Overflow (no recent podcasts from Joel and Jeff however)
