I Truly Hate Twitter

If you google “I hate Twitter” you’ll find a bunch of results with “I hate Twitter” in the title.  However, if you actually go and read any of these articles they are all liars!  These people don’t really hate Twitter.  Most say stuff like this… “I hate Twitter because I’m so addicted to it!” “I [...]

Bijan: The Worst Marketing in the World

The first part is pretty standard [...]

Apparently I’m Racist

Thanks to the Harvard Implicit Association Test (IAT) a friend of mine sent me to take I have learned that I’m racist.  Harvard doesn’t directly call me a racist, but say that my results “suggest a moderate automatic preference for European American compared to African American.”    If European American = white and African American = [...]

MacBook Not Booting (Part 2)

Yesterday I left off where I had just bought a new hard drive and an enclosure for the old hard drive (to see if I could salvage any of the old data).  I was able to get the new hard drive working in the computer, which confirmed that the hard drive was the problem.  As [...]
