Goodbye to a pioneer and innovator, Mr Sim Wong Hoo. I have fond memories of buying the latest/greatest sound card for my gaming boxes. And the Nomad mp3 players. channelnewsasia.com/singapore/sim-…

Let the ADR wars begin… (inside joke)

Outside of NYC people think that residents walk around scared of being robbed or shot every day. Inside NYC the most stressful day of the year is santacon because folks don’t want to ride the subway with a bunch of blacked out college kids. That’s the biggest fear.

How I feel trying to build a feature over the weekend that's estimated to take 2 weeks...
