Haven't tried it out yet, but looks nice. Surprised to see that this wasn't authored by Mario Klingemann, creator of the very clever LowpolyBot: http://lowpolybot.tumblr.com/

The TRON/Lightcycle genre is at its very best as a PvP(xN) game. Haven't logged in for years, but there used to be dozens of very active servers running Armagetron Advanced, and it looks like it's still going: http:/&#

Have you considered a chloropleth[1]? Similar effect to a heat map but likely much easier to implement. Just shade each of your already defined regions by [sightings/area]. [1] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Choropl

I take this article to be an argument against snake-oil panaceas, just broadly overstated in its phrasing. Not a generally useful piece, but a healthy rebuttal to the woo reductionists.

I am also interested to see what comes of this, but it's been pointed out that is paper is somewhat suspect with seemingly little input from Nahuatl language experts or prior literature on the Voynich manuscript. Here is a refutation b

Far cleverer RapGenius growth hack exposed: RG has seemingly generated a unique URL w/<title> for each line of each of each song listing. Google slurps these up and gives them prominent SERP rankings, though the links are all

Thanks. It was an exhausting and inspiring day, and your support builds the inspiration. I've slapped together a blog with some photos for now, and more info to come. http://growquad.tumblr.com/ I'll be documen

Like the whiz-bang Lawton stuff? Any other good ones? Nice idea. I'm not much of a videographer, but I'm trying to document this project with some footage as well.

If you're referring to physical/material kits, that'd be difficult, as the elements of life don't package well. If you're talking about packaging informational materials, that's an interesting idea, as I'v

I just slapped together http://growquad.tumblr.com/ with some photos from today's first work day. Will be posting more updates about design, implementation, and progress.

A biodiverse, edible forest garden in the center of an public high school. We are breaking ground with a team of students in about an hour. This is (very) cool because it will expose adolescents to a variety of concepts, perspectives, and

This guy basically brought the internet to our little seaside town decades ago. Looks like he's now trying to foster a startup culture here just over the mountains from the Valley.

This not being a causal study, I wonder if higher coffee consumption is linked to other factors that may or may not cause glaucoma... say, computer work.

You may be interested in David Cope's work with his program Emily Howell. It can create quite convincing (and beautiful) new works in the style of any composer, given a sufficient input database.

Another walled garden? What is the advantage of posting to this service? Increased readership? Huge font? I don't see IP terms posted anywhere... Or any reason to be excited about this.

Very nice, useful. I find the scroll overflow on the screenshot display to be clunky and uncomfortable, though. I think I'd prefer a shrink-to-fit/click-to-expand situation. Also, I tried pasting a ~1mb JPG photo, and the spinner has been
