Nothing is so perfect. This article originally appeared in issue 2. On October 25, 2012. For the PlayStation 3 is the best video game I’ve played in a long time. I’m going to use it to illustrate a larger point about technology, and in doing so, I’m going to spoil the game. If you have any interest in video games at all, I strongly recommend that you do not read any further until you’ve played it. And insults, including sexist, racist, and homophobic slurs. Many remedies have been tried: moderation, the ...

I had a skin biopsy last week (benign). It left me with two stitches and a colorful bruise. When Wes saw the sutures, his eyes opened wide. “WHAT,” he asked, “is THAT? I explained that the doctor wanted to look at my skin under a microscope to make sure it was healthy. It was, so he stitched me up so it would heal. No big deal. Wes ran to his room and came back with a bandaid, which he unwrapped and placed, gently and precisely, over the wound. Posted 2 years ago. Said: Glad you all good, KL. Said: 3 3 3.

I can be contacted @caseyliss. Α), or via e-mail: my first name at caseyliss.com. This past Friday I was lucky enough to have my first real speaking engagement, at CocoaConf DC. I gave the opening keynote, which was a tremendous honor. My talk, in short, was somewhat self-deprecating, but also hopefully inspiring. The premise was that I’m not particularly special, yet despite that I have ended up on a popular podcast. Unfortunately, I think I succeeded in that capacity. Rdquo; Ha ha! In the past–ha...

Highlights from 2011
http://siracusa.tumblr.com/post/15138872275/highlights-from-2011
Nothing is so perfect. This past year was an eventful one for someone like me who has already passed most of the common milestones of adulthood (college, marriage, home ownership, children). The highlights:. I started a weekly podcast. Named after this blog (which, in turn, was named after something I wrote for Ars Technica. In 2009). I’ve been amazed by the popularity of the show and the quality of the listener feedback and participation. Special thanks to Jeremy Mack. Creator of showbot.me. In San Fran...

http://www.jessiechar.com/post/33911584194/lets-reconsider-our-clients
Posted on Friday, 19 October 2012. Let’s reconsider our “clients”. 1 A person or organization using the services of a lawyer or other professional person or company. 2 A person receiving sexual services in return for money. Customer, patron, buyer, john, trick. During a Pacific Helm board meeting, our co-founder Louie, pulled me aside and asked me a stupid question. Ldquo;Why do we call all the people we work with 'clients’? Ldquo;I don’t know. We’ve always called them that.”. To everyone in the technolo...
