Just had the impulse to 'favorite' an email like I do tweets, to say 'I got it and appreciate it' without actually sending another email.
A read receipt that doesn't have to be set up ahead of time by the sender? That sounds like something that would actually get used. Pure crazy talk! - Ross Miller
But not really a read-receipt. People could read in private, but this would enable them to give a positive acknowledgement without requiring another message. - Kevin Fox
maybe gmail will have that soon ?? Fav an email and then a notification swings back to the send and with Fav icon in a different color ?? - Peter Dawson

Anatomy of an unsafe abortion « Dr. Jen Gunter
"I was in clinic when I heard the overhead STAT page to the emergency room. As I sprinted down the stairs, I ran through the possible scenarios. I wasn’t on call, so the day to day gynecologic emergencies weren’t my purview. I hadn’t operated on anyone in the past few weeks, so unlikely to be one of my own patients with a complication. Logically there was only one conclusion." - Tudor Bosman from Bookmarklet
"A vascular system so traumatized by sheer blood loss that it had run haywire and lost the ability to clot. Disseminated intravascular coagulation. This is how many young women die when an abortion goes wrong." - Tudor Bosman
I'll editorialize: If we outlaw legal abortions, women will die. It's simple. - Tudor Bosman
What a powerful piece. I'm shaking after reading it. Dr. Gunter's follow-up the next day reveals "the ending" as it were: http://drjengunter.wordpress.com/2012... - Stephen Mack

I'm sure they'l start with keyboard shortcutze. ... I mean Google Reader rules on that. Intelligent to the extreme. ..Google.com, on the other hand - are we sleeping? .. not even "/" ??.. and that... more... - pb:
Congrats Ben! Totally agree with Jason. Our latest project wouldn't have become feasible without Ben -- I'm just so glad we managed to get a fraction of his time before he left! :) - Simon
Congratulations, Ben! You're joining an awesome team. - Anne Bouey
Woohoo! Another Googler :) - Tim Hoeck

Wow, looks like somebody bumped this! - Kevin Fox
I think there were a bunch of spam comments made to some 2009-era posts by FF employees. For some reason even after the spam is nuked, the post stays bumped. - Stephen Mack
Yes, I blocked a spammer that was bumping old posts about FF themes and what not. - Zulema ⋅ spicy cocoa tart
OH HAI! - Eric
Well, let's see this as an opportunity to raise a virtual glass to Ben and FriendFeed-that-was! - Kevin Fox
It probably had something to do with the Tornado 2.2 release. I noticed Ben was the one who posted about the release on HN earlier. Edit: Or it could have just been a spammer. *shrugs* - Jimminy, CoG of FF
I don't think it had anything to do with the tornado release - a spammer bumped a bunch of Bret's old posts today. - Ben Darnell

I've been beating up on myself a lot this past week regarding my inactivity and disinterest in dieting and weight loss. Truth be told, I think I was a bit fatigued from concentrating on it for a long time. Weighing in on Sunday and seeing progress was a great catalyst to keep going. Also having a supportive partner......

I've been kind of a hot mess the last week or so, so treating myself like a king tonight. Angus NY strip, roasted garlic potatoes, steamed carrots and broccoli with a squeeze of lemon and a pat of butter, an Argentinian Malbec and a couple bites of fair trade dark chocolate.

People behave socially and 'well' even without rules
"Millions of human interactions were assessed during the study which included actions such as communication, founding and ending friendships, trading goods, sleeping, moving, however also starting hostilities, attacks and punishment. The game does not suggest any rules and everyone can live with their avatar (i.e. with their "game character" in the virtual world) as they choose. "And the result of this is not anarchy," says Thurner. "The participants organise themselves as a social group with good intents. Almost all the actions are positive."" - Maitani from Bookmarklet
"Exactly how people tick The interactions were fed into an "alphabet" by the researchers, "similar to how the genetic code of DNA was decoded 15 years ago," says Thurner. "From this we get a pattern which reflects how people tick." However, there is quite a high potential for aggression: so, for example, if a negative action is inflicted, the probability that the player will subsequently also act aggressively shoots up more than tenfold, even to about 30 percent." - Maitani

The pope's entire career has the stench of evil about it. - Slate Magazine
"Very much more serious is the role of Joseph Ratzinger, before the church decided to make him supreme leader, in obstructing justice on a global scale. After his promotion to cardinal, he was put in charge of the so-called "Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith" (formerly known as the Inquisition). In 2001, Pope John Paul II placed this department in charge of the investigation of child rape and torture by Catholic priests. In May of that year, Ratzinger issued a confidential letter to every bishop. In it, he reminded them of the extreme gravity of a certain crime. But that crime was the reporting of the rape and torture. The accusations, intoned Ratzinger, were only treatable within the church's own exclusive jurisdiction. Any sharing of the evidence with legal authorities or the press was utterly forbidden. Charges were to be investigated "in the most secretive way ... restrained by a perpetual silence ... and everyone ... is to observe the strictest secret which is commonly regarded as a secret of the Holy Office … under the penalty of excommunication."" - Tudor Bosman from Bookmarklet

A 14-year-old runaway was picked up by police and gave a fake name and age. Somehow she picked the name of a 22-year-old illegal immigrant, and even though she's black and speaks no Spanish, ICE deported her to Colombia! - Gabe from Bookmarklet
How in the hell do you deport a minor who is black and speaks no Spanish to Colombia? Somebody should not only get fired over this, but probably go to prison too. - Gabe

"More than two centuries after she disguised herself as a man and set out on a journey that would make her the first woman to circle the globe, pioneering botanist Jeanne Baret is getting some long-deserved recognition. A newly described plant species has been christened Solanum baretiae in her honor. Biologist Eric Tepe, with the University of Utah and the University of Cincinnati, named the newfound species after hearing about Baret's unsung work during a National Public Radio interview with Glynis Ridley, author of the biography, "The Discovery of Jeanne Baret" (Crown, 2010), on the program "All Things Considered." Baret collected thousands of plant specimens from exotic locales around the globe, and, according to Ridley, likely collected the first specimen of one of the world's most beloved flowering plants — bougainvillea." - John (bird whisperer) from Bookmarklet
"Baret's journey began in 1766, on the first French naval expedition charged with circumnavigating the planet. The voyage was to take three years, yet Baret would not return to France until nearly a decade later. The female explorer's extraordinary travels and detour into cross-dressing were simply an extension of an already extraordinary life. A woman of humble origins, yet an... more... - John (bird whisperer)
"Yet it was one particular story that decided Tepe's choice. Ridley said that Commerson himself intended to name a genus of Madagascar plants with a showy range of leaves — a good representation, he thought, of Baret's many facets — for his partner, but died before he could publish. "My new species also has highly variable leaves," Tepe said. He got in touch with Ridley, who loved the idea, "and here we are about a year later with the published name in hand," he said." - John (bird whisperer)
