the namesake movie review: no and yes.
Yup, you should go see The Namesake. The book is one of my favorites. Years ago, when I first discovered it, I devoured it all at once by staying up all night. I was tired the next day, but also energized and moved by the words I had just read. There was such depth and […]
AMD vs Intel: the twin monopolies, the future & stocks.
