Always looking for a better way to make a pizza at home. Using the stone seems to work well, but is awkward to say the least. Should be interesting to try this method (and dough).
If I were able to start again, this is what I’d do. The puzzle of vast amounts of data combined with the beauty of design in order to convey an understandable and meaningful message.
Won’t be needing all of these, and I don’t know about the plugins, but interesting to know about, and some of the general settings are definitely useful.
This is clever, but I still think the real solution is to have the airlines change the way the seat works so that if a person reclines it lessens the recliner’s legroom, not the person behind them. As long as it’s not an issue for the recliner, there’s nothing slowing them from making the choice.
Nice little tip. Bonus is that by keeping the cord through the loop, it doesn’t come completely unraveled while on top of my desk (which it really likes to do otherwise).
Awesome little tool for checking regular expressions (despite that it’s in flash 
).
Something worth keeping an eye on as I’m sure there’s going to be some useful stuff from time to time.
Despite my denials, I’ve been getting increasingly more lactose intolerant. But I still like me some ice cream. Enter coconut milk. I’ve been enjoying it with my coffee for a while now, and, as it turns out, the ice cream (or “frozen non-dairy dessert”) is delicious. None of that weird soy taste (my son says he tastes the coconut, I can’t; maybe I’ve become immune). Anyway, I’ve been wondering about making it at home and did some looking. This recipe, by far, looked the best. Will update after I’ve had the chance to make it.
Great post about the plusses of having a distributed company. I’ve worked remotely now for 5 years, so this hits home for me (so to speak).
I’d dispute #3 somewhat as this certainly doesn’t force your team to use “better communication tools” (I have a founder who lives on the phone), but it’s certainly made me better at recording things (either by wiki or email – none of use chat much).
Really like idea #4, but currently all our developers are here in Portland, so there’s not much need (still think it’s a good idea, though).
For #5, we all meet once a week in a coffee shop. I like the idea of having something more permanent, though, and especially using the space for meetups and such.
Our roof has so much lichen that I call it an living roof. Despite the joke, I’d really like to have a living roof, or ecoroof. Looks like the pitch of the roof must be under 25 degrees, so I don’t know if we’d qualify. But I need to follow up on this.
