My mom was a court transcriptionist so that she could work from home and take care of my brother and I. Even though we hovered around the poverty line I had 24/7 computer access from the age of seven.
Whenever I hear anyone talk about Soylent as a utilitarian product made for boring people it always makes me think of the Volkswagen Beetle. Everyone initially thought they were utilitarian cars and only boring people should buy them, until they realized that artists and trendsetters were buying them because a vast majority of people don't use their cars as their main source of artistic expression. There are a lot of people that don't use what they eat as their main artistic expression.
"One of the most frequent questions I get from journalists during interviews is “how do you have time to do everything you do? You run Fon, you are an active angel investor in so many companies, you teach at Columbia University, speak at conferences, run your foundation, and on top of that you have your family, your wife, 6 children, you cycle, sail, and so on.

I appreciate people that follow the Charles Bukowski mantra of life and "Find what you love and let it kill you." However, the most depressing part of this article was in the last paragraph where Melton says, "And so you have to ask yourself, is that really the way you wanna live your life? ’Cause it’s not like I recommend it, either."
Someone needs to get the NYTimes data visualization team to clean this up. Doesn't do the enormity of the number justice by folding the last column into four columns when the rest are a single column.
It is funny you mention this in regards to RapGenius because I always thought about how difficult this transition is for rappers themselves. If you build an audience as a rapper talking about the struggle then its difficult to maintain that once you've become wealthy. There are only two options that I've seen - 1. Leverage the money and fame to switch to a different line of work. ie. Dr. Dre, 50 Cent, Ice Cube. or 2. Disregard the money and stay in the struggle (I think people only take this route if they have mental issues.) ie. DMX. I'd take option 1 everytime but unfortunately its not an option for some.
Many people consider the Finnish founder, Michael Widenius, to be the main author of MySQL and it was named after his daughter My. I would definitely consider it to be Finnish software at the very least equal to, if not more than, Swedish.
