Charlie Kindel: ‘Paying Developers Is a Bad Idea’ ★: A better title would have been “Paying Developers Is a Last-Ditch Act of Desperation”.
Bobby Valentine Fired by Red Sox ★: I’m surprised they didn’t fire him by the 7th inning of last night’s game. Even as a Yankees fan, I’m glad they shitcanned him. I like the Red Sox as worthy rivals whom the Yankees are forced to beat in a dramatic American League Championship Series — not as sad-sack last-place pushovers.
Meg Whitman: No HP Smartphone in 2013 ★: Take your time.
K Is for King, Q Is for Queen ★: Chess set derived from Hoefler & Frere-Jones’s Champion font.
