Kraken by China Miéville

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Perhaps the most successful "modern gods and magic" book I've read (although actually I experienced it as an audiobook). This is the quality that I thought "American Gods" was going to achieve (when in fact I thought that book was …

On July 3, 1988, I moved to San Francisco from San Diego (more specifically, I moved to Sausalito from Pacific Beach) to take a job as Product Review Editor on Computer Language and AI Expert magazines. I remember riding the Marin Airporter (for the first, but certainly not last, time …

Still struggling with the benefits of the Reader monad… In the well-liked answer on StackOverflow, mergeconflict says

I can explain how Reader works easily: it’s a function, and it takes an argument.

One of the major quos one gets pro being on a 2-year contract quid is that it’s not disloyal, 6-months out, to publicly seek a new opportunity.

Supposedly, the software development community has weathered the Great Recession well and has come roaring back. To believe my Twitter feed, everyone …

Ah.

It turns out that it’s a terrible mistake to leave the “Autoimport” feature of Photostream on in iPhoto or Aperture when you go on vacation. If you leave it on, and you do the logical thing of moving your daily photographs into your laptop, when you merge the …

I have this very mundane need: an application to fill the SD card that goes into a digital picture frame. You know, don't show photos that were on it last time, show all the photos that are new since last time, show higher-rated photos more than lower-rated ones, etc.

American Gods by Neil Gaiman

My rating: 3 of 5 stars
