Science, Reason and Critical Thinking: Modern Science Map
This is seriously amazing, a subway-map-style timeline of science. Go look at the full-size image.

In this fan-edit you'll get to see the movie that I hope the studios bring to the big screen in a future Superman film. Please no more Lex Luthor centered shenanigans or kryptonite BS... let's see Superman face a real threat...Doomsday!
This would be so awesome. I've always wanted to see Doomsday in a Superman movie.
The basic unit of work in the Pomodoro Technique™ can be split in five simple steps:
- Choose a task to be accomplished
- Set the Pomodoro to 25 minutes (the Pomodoro is the timer)
- Work on the task until the Pomodoro rings, then put a check on your sheet of paper
- Take a short break (5 minutes is OK)
- Every 4 Pomodoros take a longer break
I'm giving the Pomodoro Technique a try today for my work. Looks like a nice way to split time, and a nice complement to GTD as a mechanism for the "doing" part of it.
Actually, this is just to test what posterous does with a text attachment.
Update: so it seems it just attaches it to the page. My suggestion, which I have already emailed to the Posterous guys, is to have the option to auto-post text attachments to gist.github.com. This would make it even easier to include code in blog posts.
The US Chamber of Commerce has apparently spent too much time watching Mad Men: in a blog post this morning, Chamber blogger Brad Peck called women’s fight for pay equity to be nothing more than a “fetish for money,” and said women complaining about their pay should focus instead on “choosing the right partner at home.”
You couldn't make up stuff like this. Wow.
In this post, I will explain how I use Github to version my code and Heroku to deploy it, with 2 different environments. You may also read this article that explains how to deploy your application on Heroku and this one that also explain how to deal with multiple environments
Nice article, possibly useful reference in the future.
The Misconception: Venting your anger is an effective way to reduce stress and prevent lashing out at friends and family.
The Truth: Venting increases aggressive behavior over time.
Another excellent article from YANSS, dispelling one of the most-commonly held beliefs in anger management.
