OSCON: Energy + Awesome + Space Exploration + Hacking

OSCON: Energy + Awesome + Space Exploration + Hacking

By Adron Hall on July 29, 2011

I wanted to post these two keynotes from OSCON 2011. They really bring out the spirit of exploration, adventure, care, and doing things bigger than oneself.

Some Tips to Improve the Civility on Hacker News

Some Tips to Improve the Civility on Hacker News

By Mark Suster on June 3, 2010
