Yeah that's the one thing I was hoping the article would explain.

> one of the last true bad lands of the internet

Absolutely true, and a great way of putting it.

Thank you for sharing.

I was reading through your posts and saw this: "The second is this: when Shakti pierces the 4th chakra and/or the hrit padma (below it) ... you'll gain a kind of "compass". From there on out, you'll always have a way of checking which path to go. It might mean staying with kundalini yoga, it might not be. The journey getting to the center involves piercing through the 2nd ganthri, learning to surrender. It will be like peeling an onion. You'll cry. A lot. And you'll know it is worth it."

This is related to kundalini yoga? Any recommendations on how to get started there?

The following sentence explains it. "The way in which [the fibonacci spiral] continues to grow but stay true to its form is very much like Steinway & Sons over these many years."

Hang out on the freenode freelancing channels.

I work in Magento. I hung out in #magento, and #magento-jobs, and a few other more general PHP/HTML freelance channels (#startups can help you find channel names for freelancing). I answered questions in #magento for a month or so, got a little bit of rep, then started responding to requests for work. Eventually I got work. Some of it turned into reoccurring work.

Why do you want to intern? Seems like with your skills you could just work (and get paid for) a real job.

Nice job getting this together so fast.

I wonder if the reason this dress color thing has been spreading around so fast is because of the different devices everyone is using to view it. When I first saw the dress on my Macbook Pro screen (non-retina) the dress looked white and gold. Then I checked on my iPhone 6 in the dark later on and it looked blue and black.

I've been seeing articles about how the reason people are seeing different colors is because of different types of eyes, psychology, etc...maybe the answer is much simpler.
