I need to read it a couple more time to get my thoughts about it better ordered.
Still, take a peek at this “I feel like this too” article by Vijay Prashad titled “Letter to a Young American Hindu“
Though, why title it and limit it to an American Hindu?
I identify with so much of the article, […]

Call me too nerdy, but when I saw this photo of a keyboard, the thing that stood out for me was the way the [ { ] } keys were shown on the keyboard.

So, I’ve shown my irritation with Adobe Acrobat a few times over the years. A bigger issue … creating the PDF’s costs money (you have to buy the full version of Acrobat). So it’s great as an end-user technology (similar to Flash, etc) but sucks for developers who just want to play with it.
So it […]

Just today, I saw some of my favourite bits again …
