Just migrated to a new domain name registrar. I don't think there will be issues with e-mail delivery to my jhogan.net address, but it's possible. Feel free to cc me at (first initial)(last name)@seasteading.org for the next 48 hours. -
Looking for graphic designer for a tiny job
I'm looking for a graphic designer who I could hire to create some personal contact cards (i.e. business cards) for me. I'd like someone who can take some high-level conceptual aesthetic guidelines, design a few options, iterate on one with me, and then get them printed and shipped.

Probability fail
Heading to Vegas this weekend for the first time in a while, and so my brain's playing with gambling scenarios. Somehow I've managed to confuse myself on what seems like really basic probability theory. Can someone point out the flaw in this reasoning ( Read more... ) -

Life updates
I always want to blog more than I do. I envision good, clever, posts with lots of content. However, that takes lots of time, which I never seem to find, so I'm going to try posting things more quickly.

TSI is just starting a search for a part-time administrative assistant. It's a paid position, about one day per week. Most of the work will be remote, though there will probably be occasional stops by our Palo Alto office, and maybe more office work later ( Read more... ) -
About time
Yeah, so Virgin America rocks. I'm posting this from 33,055 feet. $10 for the privilege, but still.
Of course there are still a few bumps. Right after explaining to us that we couldn't have any devices transmit or receive signals on the plane, the attendant encouraged us to use their new wi-fi service. But hey, it looks like it works well.
