Comment on The Gray by Ian Patrick Hughes

Ha. Best review of “The Gray” I’ve read. That movie would have been semi-awesome if they just injected a few sci-fi/horror aspects and mentioned a legend about mutant wolves in the area or maybe even Arctic werewolves. Wait, ware-wolves. Software Warewolves. I just thought of that, not sure how that term could be applied, but funny. Anyways, anybody who even took a high school level biology course would have a difficult time suspending disbelief enough to enjoy The Gray on just about any level.

It really was just Anaconda putting on airs.

That pretty much captures my experience as well. I watched the movie just because of that scene from the trailer thinking whatever led up to that and the fight would have to be pretty badass. I can suspend belief for the sake of badassery. I felt like I wanted a couple hours of my life back when the lack of fight and badassery smacked me in the face with the end of the movie. You should have asked me before you watched it. :-)

I am such a huge fan of Monotouch and was nothing short of stoked when they were able to pull away from Novell. Congratulations, and I think you will be really, really happy there. I am interested in what type of blogs we will be seeing going forward now. :)

Most excellent. Sounds like a great gig, and it goes without saying (except I will anyway) that you’re quite the catch. Might make me look at Mono again!

Congrats – they are a great bunch of people in the short time I got to know them.

“Mobile is huge: Duh. But I’ve seen things: CDC Cybers eating punch cards on Route 128 in 1982; B-trees rendering South of Market in 1995; Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion.”

I was thinking the last part before I even got past b-trees :) Nice link up :)

Man I loved the Borland documentation in the 1980s. I learned object-oriented programming from the Turbo Pascal 5.5 manual. That was great stuff.
