Multitasking, in short, is not only not thinking, it impairs your ability to think.Thinking means concentrating on one thing long enough to develop an idea about it. Not learning other people’s ideas, or memorizing a body of information…

If there is a state of the art of end-of-life care, it is this: death with dignity.
This is the most concise, easily understood article on the perils of end-of-like care in the United States I’ve ever read. It is a must-read, and frankly, a must-heed, in my opinion. (via kottke)
These sorts of tests are common for engineering hires, but it’s nice to see an example of a good design-oriented one.
Embarrassed I had never seen this until today. Lovely work all around. (via drawar)
This recently unearthed video of Steve Jobs at work during the early days of NeXT is a remarkable look inside how he ran meetings, how he created culture at his startups, and how others — like Joanna Hoffman around the 11 minute mark — called B.S. on his reality distortion field. It’s also remarkable in that it reveals Jobs to be a man who picks carrots in pressed work shirts.
Sometimes when you are deciding on technologies to use on a new site (e.g. jQuery vs. YUI or MS SQL vs. MySQL) it’s instructive to examine what everyone else is doing. BuiltWith has an incredible amount of trending data to help you out in that regard. Very, very cool.
Lots of good thinking here. No solutions, but a nice reminder that two-dimensional touch interfaces are transitional, not permanent.

Shocking! Hilarious! A great excuse to look at this picture again!
But seriously, you’ve got time for this and you don’t have time to answer the meme I sent you?
Wilson: Don’t you know that Mike Industries is where memes come to die? I thought that’s why you sent it. :)
Perfect! I ran the table then!
You Plagiariser you! Photoshop yer own meme!

Now that’s genius!
As far as who’s really behind this, I haven’t one clue, but it’s been good fun.
I know that this should be a funny picture. But I can’t take my eyes off of Scarlett Johanson in order to properly inspect it.
Woh! Jeremy who knew you were a model! The look on your face is PRICELESS!
That is quality… I like it a lot!
Great photoshop Mike… The fact that Jeremy looks to be saying ‘How you doing’ to the hot makeup artist off camera makes it all the better… Jeremy lets show some proffesionalism please!
Anytime I wear more Adactio, my wife suddenly wants to jump my bones. Only I have to remind her not to call me Keith ;)
heh great job on that :D
I know that this should be a funny picture. But I can’t take my eyes off of my beautiful girlfriend in order to properly inspect it. And thanks to Adactio for Men, she can’t keep her hands off of me.
