  1. Google Image Swirl: classy GUI, but the actual results (so far) follow an inscrutable internal logic. http://image-swirl.googlela...
  2. So, how *are* we planning to pay for tomorrow's media? Banner ads don't seem to be it. http://bit.ly/4Fk0WM http://bit.ly/eEUp
  3. @maxtaco Aw, Max, I think you rate at *least* a "medium"! Re: http://okcupid.com/z/bf2
  4. @engt Probably not this year - all my weekends are booked through Christmas. I'll visit the Bay Area early next year (job search?) for sure!
  5. @emilsit Congrats on the 1k views! It's a great shot. What's the source of the odd vignetting around the corners?
  6. @obra I haven't had time to read the SPDY draft, but I've heard it's more like Bryan Ford's SST. http://pdos.csail.mit.edu/u...
  7. @emilsit The 50mm/1.8 is really sharp, but the DOF is so narrow and the low-light autofocus so bad that many of my shots turn out unusable.
  8. "Dosa Factory" opened in Central^2, hidden in the rear of Shalimar. Delicious street food: pani poori, chaats, sweets++ http://bit.ly/9q6nL
  9. Photos from inside Colombia's Bellavista prison. Average sentence: 30 years. Inside, a microcosm of art/economy/hope/violence. bit.ly/3VprTZ
  10. Simple and elegant technique for synchronizing clocks across a sensor network using EM radiation from AC power lines: http://bit.ly/2HkQkr
  11. Results are out for "cash for clunkers". "The single most common swap: an old Ford F-150 pickup for a new F-150." http://bit.ly/4oXBij (AP)
  12. Stabilizing atmospheric CO2 at 350ppm is the economically prudent policy. http://bit.ly/H58yh
  13. Less inspired to vote than I have ever been in my life. Somerville has not produced any challengers I can get behind.
  14. Boarded UA361 DEN-JAC. Country music on the PA.
  15. Apparantly snow has caused widespread road closures in Yellowstone. Perhaps flying in to JAC for @sosp09 was not as clever as it seemed.
  16. Kudos to Tomer Filiba for a good piece of software: RPyC http://rpyc.wikidot.com/ A transparent, just-works, remote-objects Python package.
  17. Horseback riding in VT last weekend: exhilarating in the sense of "if I screw up, I will likely break all my bones" http://twitpic.com/hsbjr
  18. @gnprice Well, below-average Cornell psychology majors overestimate themselves, anyway. Not sure the data warrant further generalization.
  19. Love this trippy 2D/3D animation. http://www.onwards.tv/ If this is the future of viral advertising, I think I can live with that.
  20. From @janchip, "The Rise of the Super Fakes" bit.ly/Caahr Fake phones are about brand cachet, signaling taste to one's peers; extrapolate.
