   I saw that in 3d in the theater. It absolutely blew my mind. It was so beautiful. It was the first (new) 3d movie I've seen. Seeing mammoth skulls covered in blankets of crystals jutting out in 3d was almost an orgasmic experience.

   I love Errol Morris's documentaries (the maker of The Fog of War). You might want to check out Gates of Heaven. It's one of my favorite documentaries. It's about the owners of 2 pet cemetaries and is one of the most profound movies I've eve

   This is extremely exciting to me! I've worked in a couple programming classes but am mainly self taught (and no where near as good as I want to be) so I'm really excited to go through these! Thank you!

   "It's fascinating watching the ecosystem evolve. Kind of remends me of Star Trek III - The Search for Spock, where evolution is "sped up" on a planet originally devoid of life." I feel like just about everything I've seen in the last five y

    But then you'd have some sort of cyber John Dillinger/Martin Luther style martyr to contend with on the intellectual plane.

    Yep, I'm on my second adapter for my MacBook. First broke between the adapter and the cord going to my computer. The second sits beside me with that same spot covered in duct tape. It's REALLY frustrating since the replacement adapter was $

    Yeah, I was going to ask if I was the only one who thought this was some weird Steve Jobs metaphor. I guess not.

    A huge part of the Govt's tactics around this (for now at least) seem to be based around opinion control and PsyOps type stuff. There's obviously a burgeoning worldwide movement of people hoping to remove tribalistic boundaries (nation, rel

    This seems to me like spook marketing. They wanted to get in on a little of the lulz action and dislodge it from its antiestablishment roots.

    I used to commute 15 miles each way by bike. I can honestly say the commute was the best part of my job and I was in the best shape of my life.

    I'm starting to think more and more that people are hardwired to respect authority no matter what it says. The banality of evil sort of thing I guess. Things like the constitution, bill of rights, and the more or less democratic political s

    I was going to say the same thing. Seems like an annoying flash ad uses a ton of CPU as well.

    This idea is something that's been really interesting me a lot since the US Govt started doing this and since all of the craziness with the internet in the middle east. The Pirate Bay is working on a "P2P DNS" network: http://arstechnica.c

    I think the preservation is a huge, if somewhat unrelated issue. To recreate the text of one of these books people in the future will have to emulate the environment the book exists on. In some sort of apolcalyptic future that destroys the
