President Kennedy’s speech that put the United States on the path that would land men on the moon in July 1969. This gives me chills to listen to and watch.
This is simply one of the most beautiful applications I’ve ever seen. It is only the second iPad application I’ve bought in six months of iPad use. Interfaces like this one (watch the video on their site) will change the way we use computers. Simply stunning.
Religion and Sex Quiz. Careful. This is harder than you think.
Not sure I would want this on the door if there was a fire in the house.
Flooding, and the damage it causes, is absolutely heartbreaking.
A street legal car with an FAA airworthiness certificate. I think the parking lot at work is large enough for landing and take off.
Google has released a patch that addresses a potential data leak issue. The real question is, how long will it take the various carriers to push the patch to their customers.
Update: Turns out it’s a server side fix and will roll out over the next few days. The carriers and their customers need do nothing. Plus one for Google.
Absolutely perfect.
Thanks to the script Dan Benjamin talks about here, I was able to migrate all my Mercurial repositories over to Git painlessly.
For a while I was using Delicious to capture links to thinks I found interesting and a sidebar plugin here on my site to show the last ten of those links to you. However, Delicious has an uncertain future and so I am changing things around here a little. I’ve added “asides” to my site, which allow me to create mini-posts that are slightly different in formatting from regular posts.
While I won’t have the convenience of the largely automated Delicious process going forward, I will be able to add links in the main stream of my site, something I’ve wanted for some time. As my posting schedule is somewhat erratic having links should help to keep the feed a bit fresher.
