  1. @julianhyde So SQLstream is in the same spirit as Mondrian, then? I admit it is a non-intrusive way to add features.
  2. @geomblog @johndcook Now, I *really* want to put #rejecta in my c.v. Alas, I have only one submission outstanding and not yet rejected.
  3. @JohnDCook Actually #rejecta has done many things right. Though they did it partly as a joke, the first issue is really not bad.
  4. Rejecta Mathematica | Caveat Emptor http://ff.im/-5ekgB
  5. You Are Replaceable http://ff.im/-5ehS9
  6. RT @ipeirotis: (Experimental) Replicability is not Reproducibility: http://bit.ly/8PO54
  7. Amazon is in-world and hiring! http://ff.im/-5cRRS
  8. I have to attend to three comprehensive Ph.D. exams today! Long day coming up!
  9. @cultural_elearn hashtags form a folksonomy (http://en.wikipedia.org/wik...), an emerging cultural artefact?
  10. @julianhyde SQLstream looks like a DB to me: it has data and you can query it. Anyhow, SQLstream->innovation->new specialized software. No?
  11. @missmcj Yes, but LaTeX has improved over the last 10 years. And machines are faster which plays in its favor.
  12. @communicating Why is it extreme not to submit my papers to journals which do not accept LaTeX? Good journals accept LaTeX.
  13. @cultural_elearn See the brief discussion on hashtags in wikipedia (someone should build an article for it): http://bit.ly/W9Mpe
  14. @mdreid @JohnDCook I refuse to submit papers to a journal that will not accept LaTeX.
  15. 112-bit EC discrete logarithm problem solved http://ff.im/-5bqj1
  16. @julianhyde In the same stream of thought : SQLstream looks like a specialized (RAM-based?) DB to me... or maybe it is just a component?
  17. @julianhyde We must differentiate iterative improvement and disruptive innovation. Outlook 2010 versus Google Mail. OLAP was disruptive.
  18. RT @academicdave: Hall: most digital scholarship is "treated as a prosthetic extension of print." Me: Yep, herein lies the primary problem.
  19. @cultural_elearn Culture is a vague word. Twitter has its own culture, for example. Does it matter if you are Iranian on Twitter? #culture
  20. @julianhyde This is not specific to software though. Innovation is disruptive. People resist it with all their might. Until the last minute.
