Pro Git - Smart HTTP Transport SAVE
PEOPLE
"I think HTTP based Git will be a huge part of the future of Git, so if you’re running your own Git server, you should really check it out. If you’re not, GitHub and I’m sure other hosts will soon be supporting it - upgrade your Git client to 1.7ish soon so you can take advantage of it when it happens."TAGS

My Head is in the Cloud SAVE
PEOPLE
Been there for years myself, welcome to the cloud. This is part of why I'm so awkward away from an internet connection. "Now, after a few years of this, I realize that when I look up from the screen I know almost nothing. And maybe that would be fine if the absent phone numbers and upcoming dates were freeing space for deeper and more introspective thought. But I sense that my addiction to the realtime stream is only making room for the consumption of a faster stream."TAGS

Retro Fun - Yorkville - Toronto, ON SAVE
"Sadness: Retro Fun appears to be closed.
It had been a few years since last I was in Toronto, and this shop had been one of my favorite stops on the trip. Only place I've ever seen Whacky Packages trading cards, still in the package. Also, an official Knight Rider poster and random 80's toys."TAGS

Microsoft Borrows Palm's Advertising for Windows Phone 7 Series SAVE
"Did you see those great ads pushed out the other day from Palm? It looks like Microsoft, who forgot to borrow copy & paste or multi-tasking, has the same ad team or at least the same great idea. Now it’s time for Palm to creatively borrow a few elements from the Microsoft ad. How about adding a few different demographics and have the people in the ads carrying webOS phones."TAGS

Countercomplex: Defining Computationally Minimal Art (Or, taking the "8" out of "8-Bit") SAVE
PEOPLE
"The defining element is LOW COMPUTATIONAL COMPLEXITY, as expressed in all aspects of the audiovisual system: the complexity of the platform (i.e. the number of transistors or logic gates in the hardware), the complexity of the software (i.e. the length in bits of the program code and static data), as well as the time complexity (i.e. how many state changes the computational tasks require). A more theoretical approach would eliminate the differentiation of software and hardware and talk about description/program length, memory complexity and time complexity."TAGS

In Ann Arbor, Beer Begets More Beer SAVE
"If someone took the time to draw out all the connections between craft brewers in the Ann Arbor and Ypsilanti area, it might look like the incestuous family tree the back country people in Deliverance scrawled in their family bible. But even the most seasoned beer connoisseur probably wouldn't be able to taste those connections while sampling a pint from one of the many local brewpubs and microbreweries. "TAGS
