Lifestream(Miami, around xmas eve) Stage 2: Aconcagua. Erden Eruç of Around-n-Over has completed his almost 4000 mile bike trip from Seattle to Miami on his way to the second summit of Aconcagua. Nice work Erden, I hope the rest of the leg goes as smoothly. It’s a shame with the hurricane season though. Well, the […]

And people keep posting their lists. I’m all for lists. As long as it doesn’t get too sentimental and end up being about lost kittens or solely lamenting the issue of time. Lists are good if they have something to say. Here are some that may or may not be worth a read.
Doom9: Codec shoot-out […]
Ok, here we go with culture and traditions again. Christmas is all but over once again and if I only get by New Year’s I’m all set for another year free of participation in any major traditions. Xmas in the only institutionalized tradition left with the potency to really touch you in any way and […]
On the topic of double standards. I was until yesterday blissfully unaware that the Swedish MPA (Medical Products Agency) had done quite number on the 100mg caffeine pills (by Recip) that are sold by the Pharmacy.
At the moment, caffeine and multivitamin are the only dietary supplements that I consume. I no longer use whey protein […]
Swedish telecom giant Telia seems to be finally getting what they deserve. They are now facing a law suit in the millions and more to follow. A little late perhaps and ironically when they have all but given up their monopoly and now work within the limits of a market economy. Veritas. Aequitas.
The trendspotting has already started and with this top ten list, Red Herring should be off to a good start in the best of Delphian traditions.
One of the more promising prophecies is the realization of RNAi (RNA interference), i.e. “gene silencing”. Even if the prospect of more power, patents and wealth to the pharmaceutical companies […]
I wonder, can he pull this off or not? I’ve been over this many times before but always come to the conclusion that Cameron had lost his mind and that all the rest was just rumours. Now it turns out that Ain’t It Cool News wasn’t so far off in their prediction (for once). It […]
Just late night experimentation. First off, I filled out the meta tags a little better, repeating certain terms twice or more. I also made sure that the item title would also be the page / html title for item pages. And I added the excellent SEO plugin by Radek Hulán. Thus, all outgoing links are […]
One odd thing struck me the other day. I was surfing around and came upon a discussion thread about tipping. As in giving a tip or gratuity to in return for a service, beyond the agreed-on compensation. Anyway, this was something I was only peripherally aware of before, having seen it through the eyes of […]
Or what is left. It’s interesting that employers would take an disapproving position to people discussing their professional life in the private domain. I fail to see their point of view here. The idea that corporate entities now not only control the work hours of individuals but also infringe upon and expropriate what is left […]
