Elvis Costello at the Warfield (4/15/12) | Timboy
https://timconverse.wordpress.com/2012/04/23/elvis-costello-at-the-warfield
Elvis Costello at the Warfield (4/15/12). For some reason I went to this show with a dual consciousness: as long-time rabid fan, but also trying to channel the experience of a newbie. As I’ll explain, the first consciousness enjoyed itself; the second, not so much. Not to be a city-snob, but sometimes I wonder if some folks who come from the suburbs to concerts in the city simply cannot deal with the sudden increase in population density, and freak out for that reason alone.). He came up to our balcony t...

Why is it more difficult to memorize or sing a classical piece than a pop song? Excerpts from the answer. There is no faking it if you are a classical musician. You have to know what you are doing. Classical music truly separates the men from the boys.”]. There is almost no polyrhythmic action (of multiple signatures p...
Stealth site for Jybe | Timboy
https://timconverse.wordpress.com/2011/06/11/stealth-site-for-jybe
Stealth site for Jybe. A stealth-mode startup should have a stealth-mode site, and we have one now for Jybe. Target audiences are 1) potential users and alpha-testers, 2) potential employees, and 3) potential funders (although we are not looking for outside funding quite yet). I love the logo and visual design from the guys at ZENxd. This entry was posted on Saturday, June 11th, 2011 at 4:48 pm and is filed under Uncategorized.

Silicon Valley and “Science”. August 18, 2013. I’ve been working in Silicon Valley since 2000, at first as an engineer and then as a …. well, that’s what we’re here to talk about. The “Scientist” title has always bothered me a little, both because it feels like an inaccurate use of a perfectly fine word, and because it feels like grade inflation. 8220;But I’m a scientist! 8221; Hiring manager: “No problem, we need scientists too! 8221; (editing the job title as he speaks).
