Hey you, don't watch that Watch this! This is the heavy heavy monster sound The nuttiest sound around So if you've come in off the street And you're beginning to feel the heat Well listen buster You better start to move your feet To the rockinest, rock-steady beat Of MADNESS! - Ph

“A few authors bristle when asked the inevitable question about how they write. Richard Ford declined to reveal his habits, explaining in an email that "those are the kind of questions I hope no one asks me after readings and lectures." Others revel in spilling minute details, down to their preferred brand of pen (Amitav Ghosh swears by black ink Pelikan pens) or font size (Anne Rice uses 14-point Courier; National Book Award nominee Colum McCann sometimes uses eight-point Times New Roman, forcing himself to squint at the tiny type). Some now offer fans a window into the process, reporting on their progress on blogs and Twitter feeds. On his author Web site, John Irving describes how he begins his novels by writing the last sentence first. Here is how a range of leading authors describe their approach to writing—a process that can be lonely, tedious, frustrating and exhilarating.” - Urbansheep

Он клёвый, моя мечта о таймере — одна кнопка, звенит, но не раздражает, и неуродский. Пошла десятая сессия. Три часа ночи. Ох. - Urbansheep

“And when "smart textiles" are ubiquitous and economical, will there be a counter-market for passive, privacy respecting, "dumb textiles"? And a nostalgia for old-fashioned details like real sewn seams, and socks that rip or fray before we've finished with them? I wonder.” - Urbansheep

не-не-не, время точно серверное (все видят одно и то же, своё харьковское время я упомянул только к тому, что оно не совпадает со временем в списке). но какого региона время на сервере — я не знаю. - Зверёк

“Today, my brother came home complaining about some jerk that drove past him and threw pink glitter in his hair through the car window. As he left the room, I turned to see my dad hiding large pots of pink glitter, stopped when he spotted me, smiled and put a finger to his lips. I love my dad. MLIA” - Urbansheep

"The Large Hadron Collider, the world's most powerful particle accelerator, just cannot catch a break. First, a coolant leak destroyed some of the magnets that guide the energy beam. Then LHC officials postponed the restart of the machine to add additional safety features. Now, a bird dropping a piece of bread on a section of the accelerator has, according to the Register, shut down the whole operation." - Urbansheep from Bookmarklet

“In September we were excited to announce the availability of over 1,860 issues of the iconic LIFE magazine on Google Books. One of the feature requests that I got from friends and family was to add a way to browse all the magazines available. Someone even created a Facebook group called Get Google Magazine Search to provide a list of indexed titles. The group has 45 members and growing, so before it reached millions of members and there were protests in front of my house, I decided that I better act fast. I'm happy to announce that last week I coded up a page on Google Books that lets you browse the available magazine titles.” - Urbansheep from Bookmarklet

Есть еще lecture notes в MIT (или Stanford, или...), где разбирается много задач с интервью Google, но там, кажется, только алгоритмы - Stanislav Sereryakov

“There is much more to be said and still a lot to be done. For now, we are looking forward to see how krone.at develops with the new design guidelines and–most importantly–how it all plays out for them in terms of traffic.” - Urbansheep from Bookmarklet

"Twitter chairman and cofounder Jack Dorsey has a new startup called the Square iPhone Payment System, to be located at SquareUp.com. The business will be selling consumers on an attachment for their iPhones they can use to pay for stuff instead of using their credit cards." - Urbansheep from Bookmarklet

“Microsoft likes to make money, hence the Windows 7 tax, but their main reason for setting the price so high is to get us all to buy new computers. That brings Microsoft less revenue per unit but more revenue overall as businesses, for example, decide to upgrade a whole office with new PC’s rather than pay $119.95 per desk just for new software. New PCs come with dramatically lower support costs for Microsoft than do retail upgrades. The pricing ploy makes Microsoft very popular, too with its Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) like HP, Dell, and hundreds of others.” - Urbansheep

Windows 7 Drives a 49% Spike in PC Sales: http://www.internetnews.com/hardwar... “However, those figures are actually down somewhat, percentage-wise, when compared to the Vista launch in early 2007. PC sales growth during the week of the Vista launch jumped 68 percent over the prior year's sales and 170 percent over the week preceding the launch.” - Urbansheep

“That opening shot is actually a massive still photo of Riga, Latvia, which is one of many Eastern European cities that the game is based on,” says David Purchase. “So I figured, I’ll go with this. We found the photo on Wikipedia — no restrictions, license-free. I then took various other photos and integrated in the mountains in the background as well as taking elements from the game. It looks like a camera pan, but it’s really because it’s such a massive photograph; the person who first took the photograph essentially did do a pan, but then stitched it together with the images, then we zoom into it and travel across it.” - Urbansheep

«Михаил: — Когда мы начали писать о своих коллегах и их жертвах, о том, как устроены учения в отделах проектирования и разработки, как маркетинговые специалисты ведут расследования среди пользователей, как ведут себя руководители при наборе новых сотрудников и какие чёрные лебеди плавают в дата-центре, мы не представляли, к чему это приведёт. Всё это превратило нашу жизнь — жизнь эйчаров, корпоративных этнографов-документалистов, отвечающих за вики и багтрекеры, за семинары и тимбилдинг, за настроения и прозрачность — в большую афёру, в работу над непрерывным сериалом, повороты которого мы можем лишь изредка предсказать, арки отношений здесь между живыми людьми, а сезоны прерываются лишь отпусками летом и праздниками в новый год. Прошлой осенью мы начали планировать арки сами вместе с руководителями проектов и отделов. Большая часть проектных арок уже завершилась, и мы фиксируем победы и неизбежные, увы, поражения. Никто не погибает в нашем шоу, но «списанных» героев хватает.» - Urbansheep

“The feedback that we’ve got so far is that the schematic is over-kill and that a set of icons more similar to Creative Commons’s would be easier to scan and understand. The next step is for us to come up with a set of orthogonal decisions about what compromises the most important aspects of a privacy policy. In the end, we probably shouldn’t have more than 5 icons in the interest of simplicity. For now here are a set of axis we’ve come up with: - Is your information… - Shared with a 3rd Party? - Shared internally within the company? - Anonymized/Aggregated before being stored or used? - Personally Identifiable? - Stored for more than x number of days? - Encrypted on the server? - Monetized (sold) in some way? - Usable to contact you? - Urbansheep
