An unexpected visit

March 5, 2007 in photos, tech by Seb

Max Howell has been in Sydney the last week. For those of you who don’t know him, you should read up on his coding wizardry at his site, and then salute him. We spent the day hanging out, admiring Bondi beach and of course drinking beer.

He also astutely pointed out that USB connectors are bloody annoying because they are always (tried to be) connected upside down. Now fix it, Max!

    USB trident symbol goes face up. Don’t try this with sideways mounted USB sockets.

    Brad, true, but sometimes the usb port is upside down etc. So I never get it right. :(
