I definitely agree, Sparky, but I'd like both, "View x more comments - View last 10 comments" is what I'd love to see.

the thing that strikes me about this (aside from the obvious) is after seeing this thing pop up like 35-40 times since March its just occurred to me that I don't have any (guy) friends that a) would lick my nipples b) would lick my nipples for a photograph. Maybe I should get out more...

For the life of me, I'll never understand the emotion people have around this picture for or against. There's no nudity at all, not even implied nudity. Less dude nudity than a beer commercial or cigarette ad, yet there are people who really really really hate this picture.

The way you do it is post the next show, post a link to here, and then lock commenting.

It bumped
- Matthew DeVries
:-)
- Jordan Hofker
MOOBIES!!!! Wait wut was I doing?
- Jimminy Fuller
The bumping algorithm includes things like novel people posting to it, in addition to thread age, and rapidity of comments. If the same 3 people are talking in a thread, it quits bumping because it's obviously a closed tea party.
- Matthew DeVries
He said tea party.
- Mattb4rd
Can't unsee this.

Yes you can unsee this. You just need to cheesegrater your eyes and the memory cortex of your brain.

David, huh? Tell that to Rabbi Akiva (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki...) which is where the name comes from.
- Rochelle
Akiva's a boy! He's not a girl! He's a boy!
- Christopher Harley
LMAO, I'm surprised, that David never this belief sooner here.
- Jimminy Fuller
Wishful thinking, perhaps.
- Akiva Moskovitz
Why are my private beach photos on Akiva's feed?
- Mike Nayyar
from iPhone
Mike, I think it's because Akiva felt like sharing a picture of the back of his head, like always.(guy on the far right)
- Jimminy Fuller
Totally can't be me, Jimminy. No kippah.
- Akiva Moskovitz
I forgot, also you're a very handsome guy(saw the wedding images), I don't understand why you don't like to share your face. Rochelle is a lucky lady.
- Jimminy Fuller
Jimminy, it's an irrational phobia. No different than people who are afraid of heights, spiders, clowns, or Canada.
- Akiva Moskovitz
Oh, and thanks! You sly dog, you!
- Akiva Moskovitz
I say again. WTH!
- Give 'Em DBizness
Akiva, now I'm LMAO at the fear of Canada. People are actually afraid of Canada, or just the fact they don't know if they're British or French?

I don't think even Canadians know that difference.

If it gets to 1000 will Akiva lock it so it can sink from our feeds forever? Please?!?

Who here hasn't licked a asian nipple or 2?
- Matthew DeVries
This guy.
- Jordan Hofker
On Fark, there was this one thread, that just kept growing and growing. On Fark, it was a single page per thread. And you could post images and gif inline. Well the thread wouldn't die, people just kept posting. I forget which one it was. Anyway, it got so monsterous, that few people going to read/post to it per day (which was only a handfull) accounted for 1/3 of the server load of the site. They eventually had to cull that thread.
- Matthew DeVries
I think everyone who has participated in this thread has 'culled' themselves privately.
- Akiva Moskovitz
ah - now that's the way I like to start the week!

I really love following Joe Hewitt (http://friendfeed.com/joehewi...) discuss developing the Facebook iPhone app so openly on Facebook, Twitter, and FriendFeed (and open sourcing most of it at the same time). Sets a really high standard for transparency in product development. I hope more companies follow his example.

This is what I exactly want to do. But, usually the next release is a top secret for many of the companies and it's very stressful to write even the concepts you are working on.
- Burcu Dogan
I think most people would prefer to work this way, but it is worth noting how difficult that can be at a large, well-known company: individuals, the press and Wall St are trying to read something into every little thing you say or do, there are SEC rules to worry about, and so forth. I feel lucky that I work mostly on open source stuff at Google, so this doesn't affect me most of the time.
- Joel Webber
Joel, I do understand the bigger issues at Google, I'm referring more to the product and support side. I've been getting some VERY bad vibes from other users and developers in the forums for Blogger, GFC, Picasa, Maps etc and their APIs. I've actually had people tell me to stop asking questions about GFC because no one from Google responds. Here I get the exact opposite feeling, from...

- Chris Myles
chrismyles: some of the issues are cultural and others are technical. google support discussions used to be mailing lists, and wading through so many messages is time consuming. since moving to their forum system, the level of responses have improved somewhat and it seems the staff is better able to pick out topics to reply. the friendfeed platform is even better, and allows topics the community thinks are important to receive a higher priority.
- Mike Chelen
from IM
Mike, I guess we'll have to see.. What I love about FF is it makes it easier for ME to keep track of all my discussions in a single spot. Google's new support discussions require me to visit each group independently; there is no central location where I can monitor all my questions. It might be easier for Google but it's harder for me.. If only they all used friendfeed!!
- Chris Myles
So Bret, what do you think of the resulting app? Now you've got even more reasons to be interested!!
- Chris Myles
Chris: indeed those are the sort of technical or design capabilities that can restrict or enhance the effectiveness for users of a platform. both google and friendfeed have dedicated and skilled staff, yet here they are more able to communicate efficiently with relatively greater numbers of people.

- Bret Taylor
Frode: and in Iran's case, they are run by conservative religious authorities and they don't like the fact that they are not in control of information flow like they used to be. They like to think they can still control information sources and, since they can't, they try to block places where their citizens can go to share information.

Iran restored cell phone service Sunday that had been down in the capital since Saturday.

RIM Launching A BlackBerry Social Network For Venting Tomorrow - http://www.techcrunch.com/2009...
Jonathan Greene liked this
Perhaps you've noticed that apps aren't exactly flying off the virtual shelves in BlackBerry's App World store, like they are in Apple's App Store. The store is hard to navigate and there's confusion about several of the apps, are the main complaints we're hearing (along with memory issues). And RIM hopes to alleviate some of those problems with the launch of its own social network for BlackBerry users tomorrow, we're told. The network, called MyBlackBerry, gives device owners a social profile where they can share opinions on their favorite apps, accessories as well as tips and tricks they use on their devices. More importantly, they can also vent about all of these things with fellow users, and RIM will be there to listen. The whole thing looks more like a bulletin board than what you might consider to be a traditional social network nowadays, but that's probably a good idea to streamline it and make it all about information.

Kevin, nothing. That's the point.
- Rochelle
Well to answer my own question, nothing, obviously. What's all the fuss!
- Kevin J Hatton
Point of order: Not everyone in UK/Ireland is 'Prudish'. Ok not an everyday occurrence but there is nowhere near the fuss this side of the water than appears to have been the case in US. I think it is good to 'raise awareness' perhaps it might just catch on! After all the health benefits for children are very substantial, so it makes perfect sense to promote breast feeding.
- Kevin J Hatton
Kevin, I find that interesting because breastfeeding rates in the UK are so low. "35 per cent of UK babies are being exclusively breastfed at one week, 21 per cent at six weeks, 7 per cent at four months and 3 per cent at five months." (Source: http://www.babyfriendly.org.uk/page...)
- Rochelle
As compared to the US: "Among children born in 2005, 74% initiated breastfeeding, whereas 43% were breastfeeding at 6 months and 21% at 12 months of age. Approximately 32% of infants born in 2005 were exclusively breastfed through 3 months of age, and 12% were exclusively breastfed for 6 months." (Source: http://www.cdc.gov/breastf...)
- Rochelle
I remember a certain period in Munich, Germany, where I lived, Mom's invading Starbucks-Shops and getting thrills out of breast-feeding in front of all. I look the other way and don't care. If you've been around the world public bf is nothing unusual.
- Alex 'BuckyBit' Covic
Interesting stats, which obviously shows that the take up rate should be higher and the government and the NHS should do more to help.
- Kevin J Hatton
What Alex said. Was on S-Bahn in Munich recently, and a woman on the train saw nothing of prepping her self for breastfeeding her child. She did her best to cover up, but noone batted an eye when she did it. I wish Americans had more of this attitude, rather than freaking out when a celebrity does it.
- Helen Sventitsky
Alex, I doubt they were "getting thrills". More like promoting the concept of it and trying to make it more acceptable.

There is a fuss about it only because the U.S is so conservative (Well, the U.S and Muslim countries), it's perfectly reasonable to breastfeed in public anywhere else around the world.
- Amit Morson
I've done it- with more modesty. No one really knew or cared. One of Mr.Ks friends freaked out, but he didn't even know until we said something about waiting until baby was done. They have the problem. For moms it's super easy!
- R1CC1
Well pretty soon America will be a country of artificial insemination and test tube babies. I would not be surprised if Sex is made illegal, or one must have a license to have Sex only as a method of procreation. Why people are so hung up over Sexuality? We should be proud of our bodies!
- Igor The Troll יִצְחָק
Breastfeeding isn't really sexual at all. It's providing food for a baby. Breast are multi-purpose.
- Rochelle
And that's what magnifies the absurdity of fussing over breastfeeding.
- Amit Morson
Rochelle, yes and no. I am talking as a man, but I believe a woman is not just providing food, which can be done via a bottle, but providing love to the baby. The woman also is providing satisfaction to herself. These things are part of human sexuality. Sexuality comes in different forms. There is also intellectual form!
- Igor The Troll יִצְחָק
"The woman also is providing satisfaction to herself." <-- How so?
- Rochelle
Igor, the satisfaction that comes with bonding is nothing like sexual satisfaction.
- Amit Morson
I believe so, although I never breast fed a baby! ;-) From your experience you do not think so? But I am more talking Spiritual Sexuality, than a lust act of sex.
- Igor The Troll יִצְחָק
Are there people actively preventing women from breastfeeding in public? I mean, you did just whip out your breast, which does in fact have sexual connotations to many. It doesn't matter that you did it to feed your baby. It's still a boob. At any rate, I'm not sure what the discussion is here. Who cares what people think about it?
- Rahsheen ™, Coach Rah
Amit, I agree not the SEX! Something different in the bonding.
- Igor The Troll יִצְחָק
Rahsheen, woman were asked to leave restaurants, shops and other places because of breastfeeding. I remember a case in which police was called to a public park.
- Amit Morson
haha.. my wife just whips out her boob wherever she is. +1 what Amit said about conservative U.S. But generally people seem pretty cool about it. She does however get more looks in NY than she does in AZ. Lighten up people, baby's eating, it ain't no sex show.
- Aviv
Good quote "it ain't no sex show" @ Aviv
- Kevin J Hatton
Rahsheen, many states are now making laws making it illegal for women be harassed and kicked out of public places, but yes, it has and does still happen. The opponents of it usually try to claim that it's indecent exposure.
- Rochelle
Rochelle, I guess what I meant to say, if people where comfortable with their Sexuality, they would not interpret, "baby's eating, is a sex show" Too much ultra conservative values around!.
- Igor The Troll יִצְחָק
@Igor I agree. The USA is very ultra-conservative, sensitive, and trying to be politically correct. This is why breastfeeding is seen as more than a mother feeding her child.
- Shevonne
Maybe they just jealous! lol
- Igor The Troll יִצְחָק
You know what irks me even more? The ones who have more of an issue with this are other women! I think you might be on to something. It could partially be jealousy. This is from my friends' and my own experiences.
- Shevonne
Nice to have women and men talk about this issue on the open. This is how you break barriers! Open Minds!
- Igor The Troll יִצְחָק
Most women I know absolutely refuse to breastfeed, but have no problems with it either way. They just aren't comfortable with doing it. Probably because they didn't grow up with it being the norm. If a woman is somewhat discreet about it in a public place, I don't see where anyone has a reason to complain.
- Rahsheen ™, Coach Rah
Maggie G, nursing in public, Not really news. Maggie G nursing a 25 year old man in public. That would be news :D

- Aviv
@Rah You're right. I always put a blanket or had a snuggie to breastfeed in public, but there are other women who won't even breastfeed like that. However, I don't think that they should make it hard for women who do want to breastfeed.
- Shevonne
That is sad.
- Rochelle
@Rochelle By the way, thanks for posting this picture. I love Maggie, and I am glad that she is showing that breastfeeding is a natural thing. I am all for breastfeeding (breastfed my son for 16 months, and my daughter for 9), so I am happy for this discussion. =D
- Shevonne
Shevonne, right, and my wife does that as well sometimes, you know, to be polite and all. But you know how baby (especially the older they get) sometimes just doesn't want to be covered and wants to see what's going on around him in between sips? Well at that point it's too bad for those who get offended, because the boob's out there.

What John said. I think it's ironic (and very, very sad) that in this society it's more taboo to tell someone that baby formula is bad or that smoking near their baby is a no-go or that letting them cry their brains out for 5 hours is just sick or that their 4-year-old kid is too old for a stroller, than it is to nurse your baby in public, talk about co-sleeping, how you smash organic...

OK, the app could be a lot better. The basics: data doesn't update as regularly as it could; classifications (e.g. green and polka-dot jerseys) don't update during a stage; can't tap on riders in current-stage view to view info on the rider.
- Grey Drane
Other features that would be cool: GPS tracking of Rabobank riders; heart-rate data on Rabobank riders; "virtual" yellow jersey classification; real-time GPS tracking of various groups (breakaway, peleton, jerseys, etc.) on aerial-view map.

Also news sources in English would be nice. A Twitter search stream of Tour-related tweets would be cool, too.

All in all, a nice idea that was implemented too quickly. Still not a bad little app, though.

Even better Twitter idea: give the Rabobank riders Twitter accounts and feed them into the app.

"Google Chrome OS is an open source, lightweight operating system that will initially be targeted at netbooks. Later this year we will open-source its code, and netbooks running Google Chrome OS will be available for consumers in the second half of 2010. Because we're already talking to partners about the project, and we'll soon be working with the open source community, we wanted to share our vision now so everyone understands what we are trying to achieve. Speed, simplicity and security are the key aspects of Google Chrome OS. We're designing the OS to be fast and lightweight, to start up and get you onto the web in a few seconds. The user interface is minimal to stay out of your way, and most of the user experience takes place on the web. And as we did for the Google Chrome browser, we are going back to the basics and completely redesigning the underlying security architecture of the OS so that users don't have to deal with viruses, malware and security updates. It should just work."

All web-based applications will automatically work and new applications can be written using your favorite web technologies. And of course, these apps will run not only on Google Chrome OS, but on any standards-based browser on Windows, Mac and Linux thereby giving developers the largest user base of any platform."

How will this differ from just being a special Linux distro?
- Gabe
Gabe, in the same way that Android differs from a special Linux distro :). They both use Linux as a device driver layer, but have built up a whole new application layer.
- Paul Buchheit
Gabe: from the blog post, they are writing a new window manager (and presumably getting rid of X since it is so slow and resource intensive). And I also presume working on startup time and power consumption will involve some deeper changes to the OS than most Linux distributions.
- Bret Taylor
Right on. Just like Apple did with Mac OS X.

Bright move for an excellent project. V8 is so slick, I wished for it to be utilized in a broader domain than "just" within the confines of a browser. Stripping out all kinds of unnecessary OS components, building a layer of native windowing on top. Very excited.
- Mustafa K. Isik
a new windows system is interesting - Google just open sourced a custom NX server (http://google-opensource.blogspot.com/2009...) so I wonder if that's related. I think overloading the Chrome name is a mistake, though - look how that worked for Sun with Java (remember the Java Desktop System - which was a Linux distribution and JavaFX?)

Won't people get annoyed when Flash doesn't work, or QuickTime movies won't play, or something like that?

Web-as-a-platform has a long ways to go. I think this is great work they are doing but just don't see it as being transformative.

People will still want to run native compiled apps. Especially for games.
- Rodfather
Rodfather, see http://code.google.com/p... (sandboxed x86, in short)
- Paul Buchheit
Gabe: The former. HTML5 includes built-in video and audio support, and includes Canvas, which will in large part act as a replacement for most use-cases of Flash. Some parts of it are already out there, but it'll still be a couple of years, I think, before it's ubiquitous. Maybe Google will get Apple and Microsoft to port their stuff to Linux (like Paul says, Flash is already in the works for Android) so it'll work on Chrome OS, but it seems more likely they're banking on HTML5's success.
- Mark Trapp
from iPhone
Paul, Native Client sounds exciting
- Rodfather
A new windowing system just to run Chrome? Sounds a bit overkill to me. It feels like their "broad vision" is ignoring some important offline user behavior that can't easily be addressed with Gears. Soon they will probably need a file manager, a desktop, proper windowing, reserved areas on the screen to display "things" about what's happening and some more. Yeah, voila, what I just described is a fully-fledged Linux desktop, something Ubuntu-like. I hope they're not reinventing the old wheel.
- Enver ALTIN
What's going to happen when somebody needs to print a boarding pass or tax form?

@Paul .. good luck with that :) But we don't need printers, right? Everything can be done on the web.

ChromeOS is custom GUI for web apps running on a linux kernel, right? So how exactly is this different from Palm's WebOS which is a linux kernel running a custom version of webkit.

Greg, it's probably conceptually similar, except that ChromeOS will be designed for netbooks instead of cellphones (which obviously have different ui constraints).
- Paul Buchheit
Isn't a huge difference compared to WebOS (which allows some API calls to the hardware) that the apps developed for Chrome OS are limited to the webbrowser sandbox? In the blog post Google says "And of course, these apps will run not only on Google Chrome OS, but on any standards-based browser on Windows, Mac and Linux thereby giving developers the largest user base of any platform." Unless they try the Microsoft Active X approach to get around that, which sounds like a pretty bad idea to me.

I've had this happen. In Korea, in a room with some 110V outlets and some 220V outlets. I chose poorly. mmmzzzzzzBAM!

This is simply proof that hardware chips run on smoke. When you let the smoke out, they stop working.

Same happened to me almost a year ago. Suddenly strong smell of plastic and machine was gone. It was a mobo issue.

Must be nice working on a Formula 1 desktop; this Mac just doesn't cut it.

Funny how the "mobile web" is quickly succumbing the "web" of native mobile apps. HTML 5 still isn't enough to woo this iPhone developer.

But what about when you want to get the same app on the Palm Pre, Android, Blackberry, etc, etc ... having a nice web app that is mobile friendly is sure a heck of a lot easier to port. Plus you don't have to jump through app approval hoops.

Yup, HTML5 is a mess that's still implemented even more poorly on mobiles than it is on the desktop, Cocoa/ObjC is a proprietary mess that locks you to a single platform with little to no hope of ever being implemented anywhere else. Developers are kind of screwed, as always...

My brother and cousin are in the midst of flying their planes from Cincinnati to Alaska. They just sent cool photo from yesterday's leg thru Washington.

I just sent him an email. I'm sure they're playing it a bit loose, so why not? You need to show him around the FF headquarters. Kenny's two boys are with them as well.

That recent batch of YouTube videos are auto-cross-posts from Qik. I was testing iPhone 3GS with Qik. Works great.
