  1. "IQ is like height in basketball. It's very important all other things being equal. But all other things aren't equal." http://bit.ly/40yLtw
  2. I suspect your signature on a petition will carry less weight if your middle name is Jenova One Winged Angel.
  3. Interesting-looking lecture on unintended consequences of public policy at ICL this Thursday: http://bit.ly/5quzIa Sadly too early for me.
  4. The point, of course, is that the Children are no more Christians than they are Liberal Democrats. It's their parents who are Christians.
  5. Some are claiming that the kids in the BHA's "Don't Label Me" campaign are evangelical Christians. Is there an award for missing the point?
  6. Impressive photo-montage animation of @jonathancoulton's "Code Monkey": http://wp.sporksmith.net/tr...
  7. A proposal for a Twitter API method that will save thousands of RPCs per call: http://bit.ly/6CUsTf (from @JacoboTarrio)
  8. Great news. Looks like some work is afoot to start to fix the UK's libel laws: http://bit.ly/4szfOW (via @bengoldacre)
  9. Cool. I now have enough Christmas movies to last me until mid-April. I guess by then I can start on next year's Hallowe'en movies.
  10. I'm making a Christmas movies list on Love Film. I have Die Hard, Miracle on 34th Street, and It's a Wonderful Life. What else should I add?
  11. @backoffman According to the Internet the lyrics are, "Across the Universe, I go to other Galaxies."
  12. "The Thin Red Line" is, what?, about five days long? I feel like we're about a day and a half into it already and nothing has happened.
  13. To be fair to Uganda, they have quite poor education. But to be fair to Maine, *they* are not threatening the frickin' death penalty.
  14. Uganda apparently didn't want to be overshadowed by Maine. Don't worry guys! If we work together we can *all* be massive bigots!
  15. Does abusing the "hand of God" count as blasphemy? Ahern might have got himself in trouble.
  16. Ireland's minister for justice has expanded his remit to include fighting for sporting justice: http://bit.ly/2voXiu
  17. NYT piece: http://j.mp/vB8gL My original photo from August: http://j.mp/33dlYO
  18. I kinda, sorta made the New York Times today. Photo I took in August was passed on to a NYT photographer who went and took his own version.
  19. Too bad I spelled that wrong, and don't know who that is. #IgniteLDN
  20. There's a @rosshugget shaped hole in #igniteLDN.
