Description of Buddhism
What is Buddhism About?
…
Basically the question is: How can you achieve release from suffering? The Buddha found that there are certain steps that can be taken. Buddhism therefore offers its followers things that they can do rather than things for them to believe.
…
Meditation
…
When people are meditating, they are not frantically caught up in all the pictures and thoughts that are milling about in their heads. Rather, they are peacefully allowing these to settle down. They do not, however, allow their minds to go blank. In fact, they stay very alert and watch everything that comes into their minds.

Joel Picks a Ship Date
Picking a Ship Date, lots of good advice
So my basic rule for software release cycles is:
- Set a ship date, which might as well be arbitrary
- Make a list of features and sort them out by priority
- Cut low-priority features every time you slip so as to make the date.
This is just a great aside, and I can attest to the validity of the statement.
“How are you building the site now?” I asked.
“Oh, we just do it all manually with BBEdit,” they told me. “Sure, there are thousands of pages, but BBEdit has a really good global-find-and-replace function…”

Jeferson on Pattents
That ideas should freely spread from one to another over the globe, for the moral and mutual instruction of man, and improvement of his condition, seems to have been peculiarly and benevolently designed by nature, when she made them, like fire, expansible over all space, without lessening their density in any point, and like the air in which we breathe, move, and have our physical being, incapable of confinement or exclusive appropriation. Inventions then cannot, in nature, be a subject of property.
