RSS: NSLogKonfabulator tutorial. “I think it’s funny to scroll down 50 pages of a tutorial and then see the words ‘That’s all there is to it.’” Same site: How to pack a hippo.

Slashdot: Yet another lame acronym law. Comment: “Obviously, we need legislation to keep our representatives from wasting too much time thinking up clever acronyms. I would like to propose a bill entitled Legislation Insulated from Acronyms by Representatives.”
