- The Rockridge Institute, a progressive think tank (THE progressive think tank for many) abruptly closes its doors because there wasn't enough money coming in. But as a part of their exit, the description of "The Big Job" to be done is compelling, and so life goes on.
- I love a good idea I've never heard of before, and this place has lots of them
- Can you survive for 24 hours without your computer? I didn't think so.
- One of the best YouTube videos I've seen in a long time: An Engineer's Guide to Cats
