This Mahalo Daily-wannabe Lindsay Hamel's video entry made me laugh even though it seemed very similar to this old Emily Posts post about dating Apple Developers. "This is my boyfriend Kyle. He's an Apple Coder. Notice how he's facing his code and not facing me." If you're dating an Apple geek, get used to the way his back looks. The ring of truth.
As for those tees? I mostly give away my Xcode t-shirts to my kids and yes they make excellent sleepware.

We've actually got a couple of hot female coders at work, but they smoke, so that pretty much rules them out. :-(

Refactor: You can make a girl stop smoking (or you can start smoking), but you can't make a girl hot.

These are your tips after 6 years?! This is a tip from a father figure, a "boyfriend" for 6 years is 5 years wasted.

I'm a long time and productive developer (well, maybe not right this second) and I love the action of the new metal keyboards. I've got the bluetooth one with no number pad. Sure, I like number pads, but I much prefer the closer mouse. If they just had one with a slight ergonomic break, it would be heaven.

Hmmm... I'm a coder and I use the new Apple aluminum keyboard all day (and the Mighty mouse, even). I like them!
You got a problem with that? :)

Hmm sounds like you are the n00b if you can't function on anything but an old antiquated keyboard.
I kid, I kid =P
