The Swell Season covers Neutral Milk Hotel

Installing Ruby 1.9.2 via rvm on OS X

It took me a bit of digging to figure this out (it kept failing with readline errors, and then iconv went missing), so I thought I'd share:

rvm package install readline
rvm package install iconv
rvm install 1.9.2 -C --enable-shared,--with-iconv-dir=$HOME/.rvm/usr,\
--with-readline-dir=$HOME/.rvm/usr,--build=x86_64-apple-darwin10

For Jessica:

"A couple of weeks ago, a friend of mine and I were talking about a study she'd just read, which concluded that people without children were happier than people with children; or, to put it more precisely, despite what conventional wisdom holds, the study found that having children did not increase anyone's happiness.

At which all I could do was burst out laughing. Because, well. Duh.

Only an academic would undertake a study like this, defining happiness as something along the lines of "satisfaction with life" and "feeling rewarded by your work." If there's an occupation more likely to make you feel incompetent and unrewarded than being a parent, I have never heard of it."
