Good Stuff on The Web
Here are some great posts that I’ve ran across recently.
- From Geek to Freak: How I Gained 34 lbs. of Muscle in 4 Weeks: From the blog of Tim Ferriss. Provides some tips on how to gain massive amounts of strength and size in a very short amount of training time with high intensity/low frequency weight training. I am putting this technique to the test myself, and am happy with the results.
- Continuously Increase Productivity by Embracing the Optimization Mentality: By John Wesley. A discussion one of the behaviors that separates the successful, from the not so successful. That is, that the former are constantly improving themselves, whereas the latter remain complacent.
- All Writing Should Be Free: By Hugh at gapingvoid. Of course since I work at Microsoft, I have my issues with people who think all software should be free. Glad to see Hugh is on my side! Check out the blue monster while you are at it.
- Socialization 101:By ….well, I actually don’t know since he doesn’t post his name anywhere on the blog <weird> but does have a bio <without a name>….but at any rate he has some interesting observations about why we humans are acting the way we are.
I have nothing against free or paid-for software, like I said, any more than I have anything against free or paid-for writing, or free or paid-for cartoons. Everything is contextual.
What I DO mind is third parties telling me that it has to be free, or telling me that it has to be paid-for, just to further their own personal agenda, without any consideration to my needs.
