• On Carving Your Initials: "For an adult there really only two things that matter, that deserve your essential focus: those are work and love". Anything that mattes is built by > 1 person. Communication is essential; it's your fault if they don't understand what you are saying; and your job to tell people when you don't understand what they are telling you. Don't try to guess what other people need: do the best job you can of building something YOU need. Build the simplest thing you can. Remember Gall's Law (complex things are built on-top of simpler things). Don't pretend you can have a good work/life balance, it's impossible to have it all.

• Short Is Sweet: Postcards Begat SMS Begat Twitter: The LA Times ran an excellent piece a few months ago about Friedhelm Hillebrand, the father of the modern text message. He dreamed up the 160 character limit while working at a typewriter in the mid-1980s, trying to see how long sentences needed to be to convey something. He found 160 characters was the magic number he kept arriving at. But the deciding committee for SMS still wasn?t sure until they looked at postcards and found that most of those had messages of 150 characters or less.
• The Technium: Triumph of the Default: "Today the notion of a default has spread beyond computer science to the culture at large. It seems such a small thing, but the idea of the default is fundamental to the technium. It's hard to remember a time when defaults were not part of life. But defaults only arose as computing spread; they are an attribute of complex technological systems... A default is more than the unspoken assumptions that have always been present in anything made. For instance most hand tools were "defaulte d" to right hand use. In fact assuming the user was right handed was so normal, it was never mentioned. Likewise, the shape of hand tools assumed the user was male...But while these embedded biases, common to all technology, share many attributes with the concept of a default, they are not a default proper. A default is an assumption that can be changed."
