  1. This is like sucking on a shotgun full of rye. twitter.com/AustinTHaas/st…
  2. @ThisIsPizza @tanukipdx I dreamed we used them as currency in prison.
  3. @fivebats Yep, and I was definitely in a very receptive state of mind to welcome the Clojure philosophy.
  4. I'm really impressed with Ring, the web app library for Clojure. It's a great example of keeping things simple. github.com/mmcgrana/ring
  5. @Tanukipdx KIMCHEEZESTEAK!!!
  6. And, libraries > frameworks. I think I'll save a lot of time by ignoring anything that looks like a framework.
  7. I think I've come full spiral from "not invented here," to "don't reinvent the wheel," to "keep it simple, stupid."
  8. Double Fine's new game, THE CAVE, looks awesome. kotaku.com/5912907/ron-gi… via prismatic
  9. This paper on costing and balancing in game design is full of great tips: crabtreeland.com/reference_sect…
  10. @mrgan Did you know that the weather\.com app will let you share photos of the weather with your friends!?
  11. Here is a neat video showing off what will be presented at SIGGRAPH this year: mlkshk.com/p/FY75
  12. I backed three games on Kickstarter and I feel like I've already got my money's worth just from watching the projects unfold via updates.
  13. This is what I think of every time I hear the word BRAINSTORM: youtube.com/watch?v=DQatZM…
  14. @mrgan "Diet Coda" is awesome.
  15. The eclipse, from my backyard in Portland, OR. twitter.com/AustinTHaas/st…
  16. @toenut, it was awesome; very simple on a baguette. I saved the other half for when I get home from @Tanukipdx tonight.
