valhallaisland:

RIM made a video just like Mircosoft’s featuring such exciting innovations as requiring IT department approval before installing an app.
Some other incredible potential new features include remotely setting the security level of an employee’s phone to “level 5” and a phone which shows you a photo of yourself when you go through a security door. These are the kind of things RIM imagines when they’re fantasising about a future without factoring in a single real world constraint.
Best case scenario future concept videos are dumb but one that imagines something this boring sounds like RIM’s death knell.

One of the best pieces of advice I ever got, back when I was 23 and newly out of school, is this: look around and figure out who you want to be on your team. Figure out the people around you that you want to work with for the rest of your life. Figure out the people who are smart & awesome, who share your values, who get things done — and maybe most important, who you like to be with and who you want to help win. And treat them right, always. Look for ways to help, to work together, to learn. Because in 20 years you’ll all be in amazing places doing amazing things. John Lilly (via parislemon)

First-hand knowledge…

nostrich:

Very interesting.

(via Reddit)

WAIT, are you saying “Very Interesting” as in “That is Clearly Nonsense” which is what the chart says “very interesting” means?

Because, if so, then it seems like you are validating what the chart says, but the chart says that what you mean is really that it’s nonsense, so you can’t be validating what the chart says, but if you don’t mean it’s “clearly nonsense” then you do find it very interesting and this is just like that Star Trek where those aliens said that everything Kirk said was a lie and then Kirk said that he couldn’t be trusted and Spock agreed and MALFUNCTION MALFUNCTION MALFUNCTION

Here is a diagram to put the Japan Tsunami in perspective. If Chicago had a Tsunami that reached 6mi inland, the red area would be destroyed. The Blue area is the footprint of the Great Chicago Fire.
—-EDIT—-
I would like to clarify that while I was the one who originally posted this picture on Tumblr, I did not make it. My brother made the picture and put it on Facebook, where I saw it and decided to post it here on my blog. I had no idea that it was going to get so popular, so I didn’t bother crediting him at first.
Now that people are starting to ask me about it, I wanted to credit my brother. Also, NBCChicago.com has published an article about this picture. Read the article here.
