Gotye's "Somebody That I Used to Know" playing on 3/4 of the radio stations I listen to most. Not a fan of the song. Am I missing something?
RT @sportsguy33: 28 FT's to 5. I don't watch rigged NBA games, I'm switching to hockey.
Was momentarily pissed at Google 2-Step verification because the 30 days expired while I'm abroad. Had to enable roaming on my iPhone and got about 40 texts before I got the one with the code. Was annoying but I figure it's < $10 insurance for extra protection on my Gmail account. Should remember to make a copy of my 10 one-off codes for next time.
Install the Google Authenticator iPhone app. It works like an RSA token and needs no Internet connection or cell service. - Benjamin Golub
NICE! Thanks, Ben!! - Dan Hsiao
It's difficult to focus and code with these mosquitos intermittently attacking my legs. :/
I'm finding the Atlanta Hawks color commentator to be really annoying.
#Knicks games on TV aren't complete without cheesy HAIER ads.

Jeremy Lin was asked on ESPN radio how his family feels about his sudden burst of fame. He replies: "We all think it's pretty Lindescribable." https://www.facebook.com/

Happy there's finally a new episode of #PanAm, but am kind of annoyed that it's being aired out of order. Also, Ginny is certifiably nuts.

Argh. Google has ruined my obsessive-compulsive habit of clicking on a page's logo in the latest Gmail design update. :(
Google has ruined lots of things :( - Kamilah Reed (K. Gill)
It's even worse than I thought. The logo is the big happy target I use to get back to my Inbox. I had to revert to the even older design, though that's obviously not a long-term solution. - Dan Hsiao
Unfortunately we're in the minority. I believe that the grand mass of users aren't aware that they can click the logo on most sites. - Dan Hsiao
"If you look at four-year-olds, they are constantly asking questions and wondering how things work," Gregerson observed generally. "But by the time they are six and a half years old they stop asking questions because they quickly learn that teachers value the right answers more than provocative questions." It's a haunting finding that raises...
...serious concern about our education system. Specifically, what is the purpose of education? Is it to convey knowledge, as the current system is weighted, or it to be inspired and nurture an ability to constantly learn? — Little Bets (Peter Sims) - Dan Hsiao
Lawson, I love your optimistic slant. But sometimes it's impossible to co-exist with the system and still do what you want. That's a (hard) lesson you can learn in public school also. - Laura Norvig
