Sip from the what?

If you are somewhat paying attention to things happening in the United States, you may know that things aren’t as rosy these days politically as one would wish. It’s difficult for people outside the states without much differentiated news coveraage about the things going on there to find out in what kind of political turmoil the country is in. The President’s support is constantly eroding and people have become increasingly more open about their criticism. Two excellent commentaries were presented by Bill Maher a few days ago. They’re now on YouTube and I recommend everyone to take a look.

• March 16: Bill Maher: Americans Have Made Sacrifices
• March 23: Bill Maher: Don’t question my patriotism

Thanks to Miguel de Icaza for pointing these out.

I just found two webcomics that really describe well some of the things seen in the world of software development, i.e. what pays my bills. I hope you’ll enjoy them too.
