"Westboro Baptist Church showed up to protest in front of Twitter’s San Francisco office on Thursday, but found themselves severely outnumbered by a crowd of absurdist pranksters, including guest blogger EDW Lynch above. WBC’s hate-promoting signs were answered by multiple signs of randomness, nonsensical yelling, and even a unicorn. A portable stereo blared Lady GaGa, while press and people passing by ignored the WBC signs and took pictures and videos of the more entertaining signs. I was also there and turned on the video camera while holding my sign." - April Buchheit from Bookmarklet

Joel, you're just not man enough to handle a language where 'top' is an implicitly reserved keyword, and 'undefined' which should be, isn't. But it could be worse, 'null' could be something you could override. :) - Ray Cromwell

"the furthest point you can get away from a McDonald's in the contiguous US is in South Dakota, where you can be 107 miles away from the wonderment that is the McGriddle." - Benjamin Golub from Bookmarklet

That's only in the USA, mind you, although Subway will soon pass McD's at most locations worldwide: http://www.yumsugar.com/5162960 - Otto

"Remember the Dig Dug or Centipede or Robotron? They used to be favorites wheimagen Atari’s 7800 series was still around. Now since the era of those consoles is over and a different world of interactive reality gaming has taken over, Atari Museum, a site run by Atari enthusiast, has got hold of has unofficially source code of over 15 games for the coders and enthusiasts to admire the state-of-the-art (because this is what it was back then) of game development." - l.m.orchard

"The Long John in April’s recent post on Five Cool Cargo Bikes reminded me of the wonderful looking Small Haul. This is an exquisitely detailed, hand-made bike frame that includes a vast cargo-hold right under the handlebars. Joshua Muir, who crafts them in his workshop in Santa Cruz, Calfornia, describes them as “quick and surprisingly light.” The front basket is rated to carry up to 80lbs (36 kg) as indicated by the above pic of the Labrador. The Frances Cable Steering System is employed to ensure turning is nimble. Should you need to hump 200lbs (90kg) about the place, Joshua can rustle you up the heftier Cycletruck. Frances Cycles sounds like a very TreeHuggery sort of business: “Bicycles are an argument for localism. I don’t own a car and drive little, riding frames out the painter’s in Watsonville. Most all of the materials I use are sourced within the US, and some in the Bay Area. My framesets are built by hand, one at a time, slowly. Bicycles offer a way to move around in the world without sacrificing the beauty and safety of our neighborhoods or the quality of our air.”" - Jason Wehmhoener from Bookmarklet

The Madsen looks like a real beauty, thanks Cee Bee. Frances is local, so that has a lot of appeal as well. I'm also liking the idea of the cargo being out in front. What would be awesome is a way to test drive both styles... something that might be easier to achieve in Portland than Santa Cruz, so I might just have to make a point of checking some bikes out when I'm up there for the Pickathon next month. - Jason Wehmhoener

The ’80’s were a magical decade for gadgets for kids. Computing power and display technology were evolving and cost effective enough to penetrate the toy market in a big way. Purely mechanical toys evolved into electromechanical toys and gave birth to the digital toy revolution. For example, LED games of the ’70’s were replaced by Tiger LCD games which were replaced by the Nintendo Gameboy and so on. - Kelly W. from Bookmarklet

"One of the oldest automakers joined one of the newest Tuesday as Daimler took an equity stake of “nearly 10 percent” in Tesla Motors, a deal that will bear fruit later this year when the German company launches the electric Smart ForTwo. The deal provides Daimler with batteries and the know-how needed to bring an electric car to market “at the highest possible speed,” company officials said. In exchange, Tesla gets a big pile of cash and, perhaps more importantly, the parts and engineering expertise it needs to build the Model S sedan. “Tesla brings expertise in the battery electric front,” Tesla CEO Elon Musk said during a press conference carried live via webcast from Daimler’s headquarters in Stuttgart. “Daimler brings expertise in everything else. This will be a very productive relationship where both Tesla and Daimler benefit.” Neither company provided specific details of the deal, but Daimler officials said its investment is “a double-digit million sum for a nearly 10 percent stake in Tesla Motors.”" - Paul Buchheit from Bookmarklet

"If they do overreact, that would be more of a reflection on the state of the game -" The game? I have no idea what that means, exactly . . . must have dozed off between 'reflection' and 'game.' Sometimes I fall asleep while my fingers are still moving on the keyboard, and the ends of such sentences are truly bizarre. Anyway, I was trying to say that if you have choices, the school's reaction might tip you off to whether that's the right place for your child. - Mary B: #TeamMonique

"Introducing fit-PC2 CompuLab introduces fit-PC2 – the smallest, most power-efficient Intel Atom PC to date. fit-PC2 architecture is what sets it apart from other nettop PCs - fit-PC2 is designed around the Intel Atom Z530 1.6GHz and the ultra low power Intel US15W system controller hub, rather than the Atom N270 and 945G used in other nettop-PCs, thereby reducing power consumption by more than two thirds. US15W incorporates hardware video acceleration. This allows fit-PC2 to run Windows XP or Ubuntu Linux at just 6W and to play full HD 1080p H.264 video using less than 7W." - Leo Laporte from Bookmarklet

"It was the end of this June when amateur photographer Sandra Critelli, who was looking for whale sharks, found herself in the right place at the right time to experienced nature at its best. Her boat was surrounded by thousands of rays swimming together like autumn leaves floating in a sunlit pond... gently moved by the wind. The images speak for themselves. The spectacular scene was captured as the magnificent creatures made one of their biannual mass migrations to more agreeable waters as they follow the clockwise current from Mexico's Yucatan peninsula to western Florida in schools of as many as 10,000." - April Buchheit from Bookmarklet

that's incredible... - Rick Cogley
