Observations on Modern Computing (The Last 10 Years Were a Misstep)
Observations on Modern Computing (The Last 10 Years Were a Misstep)

I grew up with hand-me-down computers, from Atari to Apple (II GS!) to Dell, and in the process I got to experience a sizable portion of computer history very quickly, in my teen years.

Review: The New Day One
Twenty years from now, what will you remember? Last week, a friend of mine found an old MP3 player in her drawer. Upon recovering the contents of the device[1], she synced its music back to her iPod nano, and then she gave it to me. It was full of songs we used to listen to
