san-francisco work-out factories
130 of Automattic's 150 employees work outside of our San Francisco headquarters. Why are so many companies stuck in this factory model of working?
mistake catholic guilty
I was raised Catholic, and I can get incredibly guilty about mistakes.
goes-on want
I want it to go on, but I want us to go out on top.
dvds missing disappear
When DVDs finally disappear, I'm going to be sad. I'll miss the commentaries.
nice ideas honor
The nice thing about 'Futurama' for me personally was that it was a way to honor some of the traditional ideas in literary science fiction, not so much movie or television science fiction - although we have that too, obviously. Our situation, a workplace comedy, led to all sorts of stuff.
creative foxes results
'The Simpsons' obviously is a huge success, and Fox has nothing to do with its success, with its creative success, and as a result they don't really like the show. They don't like 'The Simpsons' at Fox.
nice gone-away stories
I've been deadline-driven for my whole grown-up life, and that hasn't gone away. It is nice to be able to reflect about the big picture, about what kind of stories you want to tell, and how to take advantage of success.
home tv-shows two
The really great thing about having two TV shows going on at the same time is that I can go to one and say that I have to go and visit the other, and then I can just go home, and they don't know.
scary flying mosquitoes
The scary thing about the future... there will be tiny cameras everywhere, and they'll be flying around like mosquitoes and drones. That will be bad. Drones are scary. You can't reason with a drone.
unrequited-love together fans
With 'Futurama,' I wanted to do unrequited love, and David Cohen agreed, and although our original plan was never to have Fry and Leela get together, we finally just said, 'You can only string the fans along so far.'
kids never-forget forget
Well, most grown-ups forget what it was like to be a kid. I vowed that I would never forget.
machines pinball
I like the 'Simpsons' pinball machines. Those are pretty great.
behind bottom farmers help issues line question wish
There are some issues farmers didn't like, but they were addressed satisfactorily enough to put this behind them. There's no question this settlement will help the bottom line of farmers, but I wish it was more.
african bed doubt origin people puts
There are some people who doubt the African origin of the banjo. But even a cursory look at these instruments kind of puts to bed any doubt.
