Interesting article (http://healthpolicyandreform.nejm.org/?p=12706) in the New England Journal of Medicine about a county in Colorado that was featured in a New Yorker article (http://www.newyorker.com/reporting/2009/06/01/090601fa_fact_...). This NEJM article describes some of the reasons poeple think this community has been able to keep costs low but maintain high quality care.

Anyone know if there's anything like techshop.ws available in Boston?

hmm... the last line kind of surprised me, even though I don't think I should be surprised. Do you think the Dropbox folks ever look at your filenames and/or open your files? I guess I similarly wonder if the Google Gmail folks ever read my emails. I'm not really worried about them doing it in some systemic evil fashion so much as some random developer or sysop just looking through things.
Anyway, thanks for posting this. I'm a huge Dropbox fan and it was cool seeing a bit of their history.

Read HN all day looking at all the interesting ideas people are posting! C'mon you know this is what you're going to do anyway. Just kidding. But, hopefully we don't see you back here till Monday w/ some more wisdom and knowledge to drop on us all.
Just to add to the mix. How about TED Lectures, youtube around for old Feynman or Steve Jobs videos, check out OpenCourseWare or any of those online learning sites and make a dent in an interesting course. Catch up w/ friends on the phone.
I also second the jQuery, Python, Django, Google App Engine, and Processing crews.
Hope your ankle gets better soon!
