Used Wolfram Alpha to realize that the fraction of programmers in the US population is 1/400 or 0.0025 or 0.25% - one-quarter percent.
This morning, I saw a car accelerate briskly to try stay ahead of an ambulance so as not to have to pull over. Dumb.

I am playing with moving more of the business logic of my app to Javascript. I see how it helps in scalability but not accessibility.
Why why did I just come across Python's list comprehension today. Could have used it yesterday. Much better than lambda functions.

Given that it has iWork, I will probably own one of these within seconds of availability. And VNC and ssh will be there likely.
The only thing that will save the iPad would be a decent VNC or Remote Desktop software. Where is the terminal program for the iPad?
Please please please tell me that that iPad is more than just a big iPod touch. Please show us a word processor or something.
For the first time, my wiscrowd application did not crash during class!
What is more important to watch? The #apple launch or the US State of the Union speech?
