Froehle's Rule of Management #1:
If you're considering a new organizational policy in order to get M employees to stop doing something you don't like, and the policy will affect N employees in total, it's probably a bad idea when N/M ≥ 2. Just deal with the M employees and let everyone else do their jobs.

When you see the word "gaming," what do you first think it is probably referring to?

I don't know who was the graphic designer of the international biological hazard symbol, but it's so evocative.

I don't know who was the graphic designer of the international biological hazard symbol, but it's so evocative. It makes me uncomfortable looking at it, and I suspect I'd feel the same way even if I didn't know what it actually meant.

Apparently, it was developed in the mid-1960s by a Dow Chemical artist. I don't know what inspired him/her, but this symbol just oozes threat/harm and dynamism without using a single letter or typographic element. This is graphic design done right.

Saw this nifty LEGO Christmas Ornaments book at my local toy store.

Saw this nifty LEGO Christmas Ornaments book at my local toy store. Chris McVeigh did a stellar job on this...looks most excellent. My only problem now is getting some of the parts these builds require. I guess I'm off to BrickLink...

If this doesn't give you a modicum of respect for mountain bike racers, I don't know what will.

If this doesn't give you a modicum of respect for mountain bike racers, I don't know what will. Seriously, it's simultaneously terrifying and exhausting.

When I was a kid in 1983, The Day After was a made-for-TV movie that portrayed the advent of a nuclear World War III. It scared the crap out of literally everyone I knew and it seemed like a turning point. Where we had once talked about nuclear weapons as strategic negotiating chits, we began speaking of them as "never to be used" armaments that the world must eventually move away from. Maybe the changing public sentiment was reflected by the film, or maybe the film influenced the public sentiment. Either way, it was impactful.

Perhaps this documentary will have the impact that An Inconvenient Truth was meant to have a decade ago, but for which we were just not yet prepared as a society. Hopefully we now are.
