I'm learning how to program to hedge my employment risks. I have a few ideas for apps that may make me money or may flop.

lol, I'm more interested in ways that people can share content and be rewarded for content. It's something I've been thinking about for a while and what I've been seeing from Joseph Gordon Levitt in HitRecord has inspired me to try and take a serious stab at it.

Hey everyone, if you could do me a serious solid and vote for me at the below link. I entered my photos into a contest. My goal is actually to get some professional criticism, I don't know if I'm up to the standards to win any crazy prizes. I think I might have to meet some vote threshold to do that though, I dunno the rules are not expressed very clearly. It's a paid entry so I wanted to make the most of this experience, which unfortunately means begging for help!

I will now blame all spam I get relating to photography on you, surf.

I appreciate it and will gladly shoulder that burden.

Well, asked girl for phone number; girl "has a boyfriend."

There is no way what she was doing wasn't flirting; I mean, sometimes I have trouble reading people but to me this seemed obvious. Maybe I'm wrong. I don't really come out of this engagement at a loss; I guess I had my hopes up a little though. At least I actually asked for once.

Well you were probably right and no harm in asking.
Speaking from experience i have picked up a girl before when she had a boyfriend, which she promptly broke up with. Thinking back on it, that was one of the more terrible things i have ever done.
But the more you talk and ask girls the more natural you will be and then success you will be a ladies man in no time.

Well, let's just say I have no qualms with hooking up with women that are taken, but I would never 'commit' (I'm not sure if that's the right word here, perhaps you'll understand what I mean) anything to someone who's with someone. I guess I'm not really looking for random hookups right now. Perhaps I shouldn't be looking for anything right now.

I don't generally get nervous around women, but when a girl doesn't drive the encounter, or make it obvious to me that I should do it, I have severe confidence issues telling me to not try anything, even if it's harmless.

So Niero from Dtoid started following the twitter account that's been inactive for over 3 years that I was using for the podcast. That was my surprise for the day.

Man, that's a blast from the past

That guy still wishes me happy birthday every year on facebook. Which ends up with us having a little chat, then we don't talk to my birthday again.

He just followed me too. I've been getting all kinds of strange followers lately.

Also me, though the only thing my twitter is linked to is twitch which says when Im streaming. The only reason I opened a twitter account was so I could follow convention tweets about when hotel blocks were opening...
