Talking Tech
Since I took up building websites about six months ago or so, I’ve had a lot of conversations with programmers. They tend not to go well:
Me: Hi. I have a little problem that I don’t know how to solve. Please keep in mind that I have no programming knowledge. Here’s what I want to do…
Programmer: […]
Least Likely Headline of the Day
I’m having a bit of trouble believing that this story isn’t a complete puton.
It just isn’t something that happens every day - giant Lego men floating across the North Sea and landing on the shore in one piece and oh-so-clean-and-shiny.
Sorry, but I call bullshit.
No, No, Never, No Way in Hell
Not even to save my life. Not in a million years.Nobody, but nobody, is performing a bilateral orchidectomy on this cowboy.

I Am Reliably(?) Informed…

This will make May different from every other month of the year because…???
Got a Problem or Question?
Then, let’s play Spot the Conspiracy. Seriously, though, it’s a little bit spooky that I think that I’ve seen all of this before, posted in other forums. Oh, and…ummm… - that can’t be genuine, can it?
Duct Tape Cosmology (a rerun)
Originally at Slate.
For the last century (or so) the goal of physics has been to find an elegant solution which describes all of physics and unifies the four fundamental forces. Ideally, the result should fit on a T-shirt (like E = mc2). In other words, they work under the belief that their universe is not […]
Accidental Art
Call me crazy (or maybe it’s just late), but this looks like a sleeping cat with its shadow cast against the wall.
