I demand to be liberated from being a god damn sock puppet!

I couldn't get through it. I decided to take a drink every time Giles said, "right", and passed out, totally trashed, somewhere between the 100th and 110th time. The last thing I remember was a picture of Kate Beckinsale.

what is an "overnight anti-celebrity" ? and why?

okay so I watched the presentation.
The bio and summary where so repulsive, I had to see what's this guy about.
And he is not as bad as his bio makes him seem. He does suggest few interesting points, like, VCs are not programmers heaven ... its still a desk job.
I like how he want to encourage people to follow their passion.
I didnt knew DJs can make up tp 25,000$ a day, wow this is huge.
I also dislike, all the cliche glitter: ruby-power, the presentation style with all the pictures from flickr and the one word slides (eeek), textmate (double-eeek)! it makes him feel like the white-rapper-wannabe equivilant for programmers. -
Interesting concept for 'endless' rhythmic and intonation appropriate music, thought the random number generation for selecting sample sequences seems a bit crude, or maybe cold is a better description. My context is machine intelligent music- something that plays off itself or as an accompaniment. Try a sampling matrix that resamples ITSELF selectively (hence suggestion of bayesian sparse sampling) instead of (or as a 'weighting' to) the random number method used in the presentation version; it might make the Archaeopteryx sound more 'organic'. Might be even more interesting as an accompaniment 'instrument' by 'random number generating' by weighting the generator to a sparse sampling of another song, voice track, dynamic input, or whatever.
