Robert Reich: What Today's Job Numbers Mean →

robertreich: The economy added only 120,000 jobs in March – down from the rate of more than 200,000 in each of the preceding three months. The rate of unemployment dropped from 8.3 to 8.2 percent mainly because fewer people were searching for jobs – and that rate depends on how many people are actively…

inelukii: Last weekend, after 3.5 years of keeping Gowalla up and running, I shut it down for good. It was a bittersweet moment. From the very first lunch meeting when we came up with a name and basic concept to those last crazy weeks, Gowalla was unquestionably the best job I’ve ever had. It wasn’t… My friend and old co-worker Adam on what made working at Gowalla so special. Anyone...

nullarysources: This is what Mike Daisey had to say for himself when confronted by Rob Schmitz of Marketplace about his aforelinked fabrications. “Look. I’m not going to say that I didn’t take a few shortcuts in my passion to be heard. But I stand behind the work,” Daisey said. “My mistake, the mistake I…

I was walking through Union Square park this morning when I passed a guy around my age riding his skateboard and attempting a variety of tricks (fakie heelflip and such). Then I looked down at the small bottle of Purell in my hands and thought to myself, “WHAT HAVE I BECOME?!”.

New Avengers Trailer →

If you had told me when I was a kid that there would be an Avengers film, I would’ve been thrilled. If you had told me it would be directed by Joss Fucking Whedon, I might not have known who that was yet, but still, I’d have been pretty stoked.
