No, I’m not dead

I was just busy and then I took some time off.

• The Python Paradox; Hire programmers who care.
• Ruby on Rails; The first web framework I actually think I might start to like.
• Getting started with Ruby; I still think Python code looks nicer.
• Why specs matter; On assholes and morons.
• The essential 50 archives; The most important games.
• The Amiga 500 at old-computers.com; My first, she’s still with me.
• Juno’s weblog redesigned; WordPress is nice.
• The Believer; No ads, heavy-stock paper, books, pop culture, politics, art, and music. Get a subscription.
• Checked baggage (warning: Flash); One square meter of terrorist weaponry.
