Into the light

Iglo_lightcafe:

Went to Iglo ljuscafé yesterday to have some breakfast & light therapy. A very nice way to start the day here in cold, dark Sweden.

Born nightowls

Well, it seems that Hal is a fan of Guns, germs and steel, too. And now Jared Diamond has published a new book. I’ll have to pick it up somewhere.

Hal also provides some scientific support for the thesis that some of us are born nightowls. Dave Rogers didn’t have to be told, though. Smiley

James Robertson just invited me to a nice new GMail account. His weblog is a great place to start if Smalltalk intrigues you. Thanks a lot!

I was a fan of Dare Obasanjaro even before I started using RSS Bandit. He is often very clear and outspoken about difficult subjects. But here he takes his time to speculate about the future of programming languages.

Darrel Norton is learning Python this year. It’s a good thing to do! I’ve been lucky enough to use Python in real projects… and it’s so much easier to write readable code.

Dag König is a fellow Swedish developer with a nice weblog. He is active in the Sweden .Net User Group, which I recently joined. And you did notice the new Windows Mobile Application Development Toolkit, right?

Not much time to write. Intense with Petra, intense work. Good thing I am well rested after our healthful week at Masesgården.

Vinterbad

Recipe for happiness: walk down to a beautiful lake, fire up the sauna, hack up the ice with an axe, wait inside sauna until suitably warm… and enjoy!
