HOWTO: Learn to write a web application
Step one: Learn a programming language.
I'd recommend Python, as it's a pretty simple language and used in many web applications. There's a number of good Python tutorials—for kids, or adults who want to start at the most basic level, there's RUR-PLE, a graphical program where you learn to use code to move a robot around. A more formal introduction to programming and python is… Continue

I'm picking Blake Jennelle because of his work developing the Philadelphia startup scene as a DreamIt alum and founder of Philly Startup Leaders, a support group for tech startups in the Philly area that, along with DreamIt and… Continue

My specialties will be in user interface design and furiously scrubbing buzzword-soaked machismo from the stereotypes of entrepreneurship. I'll travel lots, for work and for fun, but my home base will be West Philly.
Besides my entrepreneurial, technology, and… Continue

Thoughts about kinetic creativity and privilege
"Innovate on existing platforms (We’ve got bicycles and mobile phones in
Africa, plus lots of metal to weld. Innovate using that stuff, rather
than bringing in completely new tech.)"
When I was in grade school, I participated in Odyssey of the Mind for a couple years. OM was most notable in that it was my one opportunity to work with my hands. We built a rickety human-powered vehicle out of two mis-matched bike… Continue

Fourth of July on the Lake
This past weekend was the annual celebration at the lake house in Connecticut. It is amazing that the lake is still so clear and beautiful after all these years. The watershed association has done a wonderful job protecting these waters from the damaging effects of development.The wood grill was finally ready to cook on, so we didn't miss the propane tank fueled grill anymore. The food actually tasted fresher than in the past and was easy to keep fueled.Dad was very proud of the solar hybrid…See More

In this blog post I will focus on a plant that is abundant in our nature, and which is immensely nutritious. It's of course the Stinging Nettle. Let's start with the chemical constituents of this plant:37 % Non-Nitrogen-Extracts19 - 29 % Ash9 - 21 % Fiber4 % Fat22 % ProteinOnce the leaves are drid, their protein content can reach an astounding 40 %, which is much higher than beef, which even under the best of circ**stances can never exceed 31 % protein. In addition the Stinging Nettle consists…See More

Future
FutureToday is 2020/1/1. It is just like yesterday. The war is still continuing. It has started since 2010. In 2010, that year was a horrible year. Almost every energy ran out. Every country’s governments were crushed down at the same time. There were riots everywhere. All of the big company’s bosses were killed xdeadx in the riots. Troops fought each other everywhere. Food was bought up xawayx at once. There were no more food supplies in any shops. The economy was all crushed down. All the…See More

The exchange works directly for state and public workers and servants. It gives them credit in exchange for the amount of public work they contribute to the community. The more constructive they are based off a base rate the more credit they recieve.
