Highway 101 - The Flood of 1964 photo - Stephen Phillips photos at pbase.com
"A flood of historic proportions hit this region just before Christmas, 1964. The sign here shows the high water level through this region. This point is 47 miles (75 km) upstream from the river's Pacific Ocean discharge near Ferndale, California. " - Amit Patel from Bookmarklet
I drove by this sign, then looked it up on Google Earth. It looks like the river is 130 feet below the sign level, which would suggest that flood was truly epic. - Amit Patel
Amit, I'd like to ask you something privately, but I can't because you're not subscribed to me. - Cristo
Cristo, do you want me to subscribe to you? :-) Or you can email me at amitp@cs.stanford.edu… - Amit Patel
I subscribe to Cristo's comments. - Mike Nencetti
I've never understood the subscribing of comments on friendfeed. It seems redundant, but maybe I'm missing something. Is it that you want the comments, but don't want the posts? - Cristo
I subscribe to people, not comments, but then I filter out many of their posts (especially things auto-posted from elsewhere). - Amit Patel
Me too, especially anything from Twitter. If I want to read tweets, I'll go there. - Cristo

I am done gutter cleaning. Also had to hammer it back on. Happy to be back on the earth.... On my feet. - Mike Nencetti from iPhone
I will feed you for your gutter cleaning skills! - Janet:#TeamMonique
I did my parents house last month - there were nice tall plants growing in them. On the plus side it acted as a great composter and I put the soil in their garden which led to nice flowers now. :) - SteVe C
I think you are lying to us, Mike. - Friar Ticket to Ride
my parents have 30-foot oak trees growing in their gutters. i'm only exaggerating a little bit. - Hieronymous Boob
Friar, I may have fibbed. - Mike Nencetti from iPhone
I suspected that sarcasm had been involved. - c.a.j.
I need to do mine, but apparently as I get older and my hip gets iffier, my balance is becoming less reliable. Didn't have the need to get up on a ladder during the six years I was renting. At our house in the Twin Cities the gutters were nearly 30 feet off the ground. I wasn't exactly thrilled to be up there, but got used to it after a little while. Now 12 feet seems like a risk. How quickly things change! - Jkram|ɯɐɹʞſ
my house has no gutters. - Hieronymous Boob
We didn't replace the gutters after getting a new roof and, surprise, we started getting water in the basement. Who knew?! Actually it makes sense when you think about it, but I didn't (think about it, that is.) - Jkram|ɯɐɹʞſ
Odd fact, this photo shows off our new concrete siding (it will outlive me), a new 30 year roof, and ancient gutters. no rain in the basement. it is dry. - Mike Nencetti

Windows 8 — Disappointing Usability for Both Novice & Power Users (Jakob Nielsen's Alertbox)
Show all
From the post: "Summary: Hidden features, reduced discoverability, cognitive overhead from dual environments, and reduced power from a single-window UI and low information density. Too bad." - Stephen Mack #TeamMomo from Bookmarklet
More: "One of the worst aspects of Windows 8 for power users is that the product's very name has become a misnomer. "Windows" no longer supports multiple windows on the screen." - Stephen Mack #TeamMomo
More: "But the new look sacrifices usability on the altar of looking different than traditional GUIs. There's a reason GUI designers used to make objects look more detailed and actionable than they do in the Metro design. As an example, look at this settings menu. [first FF image above. Caption: 'The bottom of the Windows 8 settings menu on Surface RT.'] Where can you click? Everything... more... - Stephen Mack #TeamMomo
More: "Quick, without reading the caption, which apps do the following 4 tiles represent? [second FF image above. Caption: 'Live tiles for (clockwise from upper left): Urbanspoon, Los Angeles Times, Newegg, and Epicurious.'] Newegg is the only app that includes its full name in the tile. When we asked participants to use the other apps, they couldn't find them. This on a new tablet with... more... - Stephen Mack #TeamMomo
I haven't used Windows 8 at all, but this review makes me feel like I'd really despise it. - Stephen Mack #TeamMomo
Disclaimer: Jakob Nielsen is a polarizing figure. - Stephen Mack #TeamMomo
I have nothing nice to say about Win8. My comments on it here and elsewhere are repetitive. Skip it. - Anika
Thanks, Anika. I think I will! - Stephen Mack #TeamMomo
I've only used it on the desktop. I couldn't even imagine it on a tablet. I would assume it would be more intuitive, but I guess not. - Anika from Android
I can't imagine a situation where I'll be using a Windows tablet, to be honest. - Stephen Mack #TeamMomo
It's too bad. I wanted Windows 8 to succeed. It seems like it would make a decent tablet or phone UI, but the idea of having the same UI for both desktop and mobile usage seemed doomed from the start. - Victor Ganata
I have been using Win8 on a new church computer and though it looks nice, it is annoyingly difficult to use on a regular non-tablet computer. Stupid annoying. - Friar Ticket to Ride
Cristo: "From 1994 to 1998, [Nielsen] was a Sun Microsystems Distinguished Engineer. [...] Dr. Nielsen ended up spending most of his time at Sun defining the emerging field of web usability. He was the usability lead for several design rounds of Sun's website and intranet (SunWeb), including the original SunWeb design in 1994."... more... - Stephen Mack #TeamMomo
Victor, I agree. Friar, sorry to hear it's so annoying. - Stephen Mack #TeamMomo
(Cristo deleted his comment, which was asking about what products Nielsen had built. I think people can be qualified to write about designs even if they don't build products themselves. This applies generally: Excellent movie critics might be terrible movie directors, for example -- and vice versa. Or a well-respected restaurant critic with useful opinions might be a terrible chef.) - Stephen Mack #TeamMomo
What happens in Cristo stays in Cristo. - Micah from FFHound(roid)!
I added a start menu, and I only use the desktop. Win8 now boots to the desktop. - Mike Nencetti
How did you do that, Mike? - Friar Ticket to Ride
There's a registry key to set to 0 to disable the former Metro interface and several sw to add an old style start menu. - Ubikindred

I used to type our youth ministry notes. Imagine my horror when the upcoming Soup Bowl event was typed Soup Bowel. I was in work mode and spell check said all was well. - Janet:#TeamMonique from FFHound!
oh, my! I can imagine! Reminds me when I was online for a Microsoft-sponsored chat about Tablet PCs. MS MVPs and even industry folks attended these chats. I was using the Tablet Input Panel, and I wrote that I was saving for a new computer. The TIP translated that as "Sexing for a new..." One of the MVPs/hosts said, "This is NOT that type of chat channel." I was mortified, and... more... - MiniMage
Oh dear! - Janet:#TeamMonique
I am always careful when i type disk drive or docking station. - Mike Nencetti
At my old job, someone at the help desk made that typo; rhe PC was giving a disk error when the user tried to boot up. The support center rep's entry was, "User said she checked, and it had no <guess>." I can't remember what someone said to me five minutes ago, but I may never forget that, and it happened over a decade ago. - MiniMage
A few of my most famous chat room quotes were from hitting L when I should have hit the K key that was next to it. There is a big difference in meaning between "kick" and "lick". And a good friend of mine invented a new word that we will never let him forget, when he made the same typo, transforming "wonderful" into "wonderfuk". And he had a fantastic idea to save us all from our most embarrassing typos: http://omgplzstfukthx.blogspot.com/2008... - April Russo
c.a.j.
Oh what a tangled web I weave for myself. I don't do as well as I could because I don't give my best effort. I don't give my best effort because I know I won't do well. What a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad cycle I've gotten into. #FFtherapy (There's also some short term reward versus long term payoff imbalance happening as well.)
Actually, I think it's that imbalance that's the center of the problem. - c.a.j.
Effort on what? - Mike Nencetti
It's a general comment, mostly. So...everything? - c.a.j.
You are not enthusiastic about anything? - Mike Nencetti
No, I wouldn't say that. But I'd much rather sit around and watch TV than work on this essay, ironically about procrastination. - c.a.j.

Comedian Gets Kids to Play Evil 'Drug Deal Prank' on Their Parents - http://gawker.com/comedia...
Comedian Gets Kids to Play Evil 'Drug Deal Prank' on Their Parents
"Between this rave review of Nathan For You and his recent attempt to strap himself to a flying plane, Canadian comedian Nathan Fielder is fast becoming someone you should know. Or at least follow on Twitter. It was there that Fielder set off a chain reaction that resulted in what was most likely the single largest collective headache ever experienced by American parents. "Experiment: text your parents 'got 2 grams for $40' then right after 'Sorry ignore that txt. Not for you' Then tweet pic of their response," Fielder asked his thousands of followers. As you might expect, comedy quickly ensued." - Jessie from Bookmarklet
*DEAD* - Jessie
That's horrible (and also sort of wonderful) - Soup in a TARDIS
My favorite was "You overpaid." - Jessie
I wonder if that kid missed his finals because his parents took him out of school. - Mike Nencetti
no comment! :P - dominic
"grammar books" x__x - Micah from FFHound(roid)!
I could reverse this prank and do it to my kids instead, but I am afraid of the response I might get. - Eric
It's a cruel prank but I have to admit some of the reactions were hilarious. "I didn't mean to have you!" - Spidra Webster
I can't imagine what my response would be. - Stephen Mack #TeamMomo from iPhone
I'd probably say 2 grams of Mars meteorite? Good deal. - Yo Joe. No, go slow.
I liked "you overpaid" - WarLord
