Minh’s Notes

Human-readable chicken scratch

Tuesday, December 6th, 2011


Short-term memory

  1. Full stop

    (12/06/2011)

    Google’s shutting down their Code Search service next month.

  2. Doghouse

    (12/02/2011)

    Traffic lights in Northern California are horribly inefficient. Enter the doghouse traffic signal.

  3. Pointless blue button

    (12/02/2011)

    Minh’s Notes is now responsible for the most pointless use of the word “app” in recorded history.

  4. Human-readable chicken scratch

    (11/26/2011)

    From the department of what-was-I-waiting-for, Minh’s Notes got a much-deserved makeover this past Monday, with a new motto, “human-readable chicken scratch”, and a hand-made theme, “Studio”.

  5. It fell in the woods

    (4/13/2011)

    Last month, Google began detecting faint 404 signals from my first website, the online presence of an effectively fictional school newspaper.


The name’s Minh Nguyen, though I style myself Minh Nguyễn, with all the wonderful diacritics. I’m a graduate of St. Columban, St. Xavier, and Stanford, and currently a software developer in the San Francisco Bay Area. Since March 2002, Minh’s Notes has been home to my occasional insights and frequent attempts at humor.
