    The Naive Optimist: I'm leaving Apple

    ryanleecarson:

    I tweeted this last night and it drew a lot of replies, both interested and mocking …

    Our entire infrastructure at Treehouse is built on Google Apps: Contacts,…

    That’s interesting — I’ve been wondering why Apple is so popular with web designers/developers.

    In fact, I just got back from a software conference and all but one of the presenters used a Macbook. The punchline is it was an OPEN SOURCE conference!

    codingadventure: Week 3 has begun with SQL. It feels weird to shift away from Ruby, but it’ll be incorporated soon, I’m sure. I got a lot of help from one of the DBC teachers tonight (Sherif). He’s been opening my eyes to not just a different way of learning, but a different way of thinking about learning. It’s been very helpful as I struggle through all the new things I’m trying to learn. I think that picture is of the fourth time I drew that data diagram … and I did it a couple times more after that, testing my understanding of the relationships. This SQL stuff WILL come in handy!

The hand-written nature of the label makes it all the more likely that I would douse my ‘cue in it. No butts about it. Thanks to @unquieted for the pic P.S. Sauce is from http://www.thehumblepig.com/  I just photographed it. Credit where credit is due.

    caro:

    So it’s after 11PM and I’m only awake because I’m having a Twitter debate as to whether the Pine Barrens (NJ) or the County (ME) would make the better setting for the next egregious rednecksploitative reality show. This should not be a debate because whenever moose are involved on one side but not the other, they win. Every motorist north of Boston knows this.

    Speaking of Boston…. A&E’s doing a Southie reality show. :-O

    The Naive Optimist: Installing my Rogue home gym
    Cool post… I think we’re seeing the start of a fitness renaissance.. Kinda like the cooking craze — our society just went from eating bologna on Wonder bread to hummus overnight — a lot of chefs became celebrities and now physical trainers like Jillian Michaels are doing the same. I, too, just canceled my gym membership to set up a home fitness studio. (For very little $$$ b/c I had a weight bench, yoga mat, dumbbells, Swiss ball, foam rollers DVD/tv, etc. already.) I bought some puzzle-board gym flooring & shelves.. My work outs are from Men’s Health magazine & misc. DVDs (some of which from Netflix)… It saves time commuting to-from gym and is also a much better use of an extra room than some guest room that is rarely used.

    As you all know, I decided to finally get my ass in gear and get in shape back in 2011. (Here’s the proof.)

    Since I moved to the States I’ve been working out at LA Fitness, which is a 10 minute walk from my house. However, the article Everything You Know About Fitness is a Lie inspired…

Why the name?

"unquieted" = unsettled = a life in transition.

I'm starting over. I was always creative, but also had strong analytical skills, and was never afraid of technology. At a time when many of my law school classmates are making partner or running for governor, I am going back to my creative roots. Specifically, web design & digital art.

"unquieted" = a play on words.

I can be unquiet, i.e., noisy. I play drums, bass, guitar and once in a while I even try to sing. (But I'm an amateur these days... my creative outlets are visual.) And this blog is about not being quiet. The "ed" part is my name.
