The vapidity of cable news, part 1 in an ongoing series
What to do about the gas price crisis.

The easy answer is "Don't do stupid things of no possible value to the electorate."

1. Go to the Department of Energy's Energy Information Administration page. Look at the refinery utilization statistics. And the world oil production figures. And, of course, the figures on gasoline consumption. They have all been cleverly marked on the page for just this purpose.
2. Take one (1) frosty beer from the refrigerator. Those who do not have beer in the refrigerator may substitute a soft drink, a glass of white wine, or a hard cider. Do not attempt to replace the beer with Zima or wine coolers, however. These are known to cause your IQ to drop by 30 points.
3. Sit down in a comfortable chair with your beverage of choice.
4. Think for two minutes.
Announcing Ruby on Crack | Zen and the Art of Programming
After several months of keeping it under wraps, I’m happy to officially announce my own web framework to the world. It’s called Ruby on Crack and will be released by RailsConf 2008.

According to my preliminary tests, using Crack makes you 5 to 10 times more productive than using Rails.
