Miky··on Ask HN: How did you get started in hacking/programming?
What's sad about that is that the iPhone is a lot harder to develop for, so it will get a lot less people interested. Rather than just opening up the "iPhone-Basic" app and fiddling around for a bit with an exceedingly simple and easy-to-learn language, you have you get a Mac, get registered, get XCode, and spend quite a while learning Objective-C and Cocoa, and to actually draw anything on the screen, probably OpenGL ES as well.
Miky··on _why's Estate
All of what _why has accomplished fills me with awe. He was so prolific, and everything he made was amazing, and along with it he was one of the coolest people I've seen online. He was humble, didn't take anything too seriously (up until his disappearance, I suppose), and encouraged me to rethink a lot of my attitudes.

His disappearance definitely wasn't a very considerate thing to do, but at least we still have most of his amazing work.

This page is full of links to awesomeness.

Miky··on Avatar Is Like The iPhone Of Movies
When I saw the title, I thought the comparison was going to be that it was beautiful and polished, but the storyline/features weren't too amazing.
Miky··on Predictions for 2010
I liked most of it except for the blind Windows hate on the last one. I especially liked the XML one.
Miky··on Objects Are Not Abstract Data Types
What Clojure's getting reminds me of Haskell.

I need some sort of multiple upvote. :P

XHTML is such a load of garbage. Transitional is bad, sure, but strict HTML 4.01 is the very best.
