Nuggets of Knowledge
Nuggets of Knowledge would be a great name for a company. I'm going to be LLC-ing my projects soon (although it would be uber-l33t to declare a S-Corp and then actually get to call myself "CEO", I can't really afford to pay taxes twice on like razor-thin margins ;)) ... and I've been thinking of cool names for company. In the end, I may pick the vainest company name ever, but what the heck. All big companies are named after some family or some person. Just as long as I don't get too vain like certain other Internet self-proclaimed Kings, I should be OK. (But dag ... really... that is one VAIN page)
Anyways, here are some cool "nuggets of knowledge" for you:
- Yamaha RH5MA headphones are absolutely awesome! They aren't too overpriced at $45 either! I get really uncomfortable using earbuds for extended periods of time (from my iPod), so I bought some "normal" headphones. Honestly though ... given the MP3s I listen to, the quality of the headphones isn't THAT evident ... but I do have a few lossless tracks on my iPod that it really makes a big difference.
- I bought Joel on Software from Amazon and have been reading it voraciously since I got it two days ago. It's a pretty darn good book! Nothing too specific (it's based on his weblog), but it's generally his experiences in software development. I partially wish I had read his chapter on "Why Not to Rebuild a Whole Program From Scratch" before I scrapped all 1.0 code for 2.0. If you have a bit of money (and some time) to burn, buy it.
- On the other hand, do *not* buy Defensive Design for the Web. It is the most useless book ever.
