Stop worrying so much about comparing yourself to every other possible competitor you can imagine and start comparing yourself to nothing. Are you really worth the hassle, the risk, the time, the money? Or can’t the prospect just wait until tomorrow?
Seth Godin.

Un movil en condiciones (cayó el xperia finalmente) parece que si ha logrado. Vaya parón que ha tenido esto. Y no por vacaciones.
Habrá que arremangarse un poco y llegar a una entente cordiale.

Trying to help things change at one place. Trying to change things at other. You gotta get involved to really feel how it feels in the trenches. You cannot get so involved you become part of what keeps the problems going downhill.

When I first read it, it was awesome because it talked about us (I was young, even more impressionable and still studying industrial engineering).
This time has been absolutely fascinating because it doesn’t talk at all about us (whatever us means around me now).
Or perhaps it talks. A little.

These two places have a little of the innocence and egolessness which is necesary to the quality without a name. And why?

I don’t mean that they are defiant: people who defiantly don’t care what other people think of them, they still care at least enough to be defiant—and that is still a posture.
Christopher Alexander, The Timeless Way of Building.

These places are not innocent, and cannot reach the quality without a name, because they are made with an outward glance. The people who made them make them the way they do because they are trying to convey something, some image, to the world outside. Even when they are made to seem natural, even their naturalness is calculated; it is in the end a pose.
Christopher Alexander, The Timeless Way of Building.
