Paul Graham Essays, Hackers & Painters

Paul Graham Essays, Hackers & Painters

   Paul Graham is a programmer, painter and author.  He usually writes
   about programming, but he writes general stuff too, such as a piece
   on procrastination I posted recently.

   He's written a couple of interesting pieces lately:
   * Stuff
     <http://paulgraham.com/stuff.html>
     ... which is about having too much of it
   * Holding a Program in One's Head
   Ôøº  <http://paulgraham.com/head.html>
     ... which gives an insight to non-programmers how programmers work
   (and why we get cranky when interrupted)

   Other great essays are on his website:

   * Hackers and Painters

   He wrote a book a few years ago, "Hackers & Painters: Big Ideas from the
   Computer Age":

   Some of the essays in the book are also published on the site.  I read the
   book last year and enjoyed it.
