Hello! I'm Taylor, but you can call me Gompers (everyone does anyway). I go to UT Austin for computer science. I'm 20, which is the oldest I've ever been. I live on the internet, so if you want to contact me, you've got lots of options.

  1. Daily Notions

    spacepants:

    mauvelous:

    The surefire way to improve at something is to do it, so I’m starting a blog entitled “Daily Notions,” in which I write one opinion article, big or small, each day.

    Here is today’s post, haphazardly thrown together at 2 AM Pacific Time.

    @Gompr, you owe me for your drunken ramblings, so you’re going to help me make this site a little more legit than a livejournal account. An unthemed livejournal account, at that. Don’t worry, work will be minimal. :)

    i like this idea.

    (did you adjust for inflation?)

    Interesting idea, supported by some back-of-the-napkin math, but perhaps one fatal flaw: nothing binds people to seeing fireworks. If they wanted to participate in other activities, they would. Plus, fireworks have 233 years of traditional inertia.

    (Sorry, you know I like to play devil’s advocate.)

    As for the design work, bring it!
