Cherry Blossom is a blogging system written in Python. It was written specifically because I had a lot of pyblosxom blog entries on my previous blog, but I wanted to use cherrypy instead of plain-ol cgi. It adds features like object publishing, session support, access to lots of cherrypy plugins, access to GET and POST vars as method parameters, and others. This software's been running my blog (http://billmill.org) for over two years now, and has survived a couple redditings and a flood from stumbleupon, all without a hiccup.
On a dark and rainy night, bright and blinding lights approach a vacant lot, off a Japanese highway - just if Shibuya’s blinking neon signs decided to move themselves past you… However, it’s some proud and lonely trucker halting for a rest! Welcome to the world of Decotora, short for decorated trucks!
I imagine that in a lot of totally fundamental ways, pitching a university to let you teach a new course must be a lot like pitching a tech article to a mainstream magazine. It all starts with throwing random words at a sheet of brainstorming paper, then cynically deciding that while “iPhone: the future of music composition” is clearly ridiculous, it would look good as a headline [in the course catalog], so let’s see where it gets us anyway. Quickly inducing hyperventilation in order to simulate breathless excitement, you pick up the phone, call your editor [department head] and shout: “The iPhone is the future of music! No one else has done it before, so we’ll be at the forefront, reporting [teaching] about a fantastic new era meshing technology and art!”
At first glance, Node looks like yet another take on the idea of server-side JavaScript, but it’s a lot more interesting than that.
A few of us at Google created WhatBrowser.org to help teach people about web browsers. We wanted to show people that they have a lot of choice in browsers, since we noticed that most people were using the browser their computers came with.
Yusef is a framework for Opera Unite applications that provides ready-made solutions to problems such as form validation, access control, UI templating, and more. A lot of functionality is available through Yusef itself, with even more features made available through Yusef plugins.
Canada/H1N1: le lot de vaccins suspects a été presque entièrement utilisé
OTTAWA - Un lot de 172.000 doses de vaccin contre la grippe H1N1 dont certaines ont provoqué des réactions allergiques violentes a été presque entièrement utilisé, ont reconnu mercredi les autorités canadiennes, tout en soulignant que ces réactions sont restées peu nombreuses.
Sur ce lot, "environ 15.000 doses n'ont pas été utilisées", a précisé lors d'une conférence de presse le docteur Danielle Grondin, de la Direction générale des maladies infectieuses et des mesures d'urgence de l'Agence de la santé publique du Canada.
Six réactions allergiques violentes ont été observées parmi les personnes ayant reçu des vaccins venant de ce lot, ce qui a entraîné l'arrêt de son utilisation, mais toutes ces personnes se sont rétablies, avaient indiqué en début de semaine les responsables canadiens.
Mercredi, tant la ministre de la Santé Leona Aglukkaq que le directeur de la Santé publique, le docteur David Butler-Jones, ont insisté sur le bon fonctionnement du système de surveillance qui a permis de déceler cette anomalie.
Les chocs anaphylactiques associés à ce lot de vaccin Arepanrix fabriqué par GlaxoSmithKline ont représenté une proportion de 4 sur 100.000, alors que le taux considéré comme normal est de 1/100.000.
Pour l'ensemble des 15 millions de doses de vaccin déjà administrées au Canada, ce taux de réactions allergiques est nettement inférieur, s'établissant à 0,32/100.000, a souligné M. Butler-Jones.
Alors qu'un Canadien sur quatre est désormais protégé contre le virus et que la progression de la maladie plafonne dans plusieurs provinces, la campagne de vaccination continue, 2,9 millions de doses devant être fournies la semaine prochaine.

Interactive video has a long way to go, but Netherlands based yellowBird and their 360 degree offering might help move it along. We, as a species, watch a lot of vids. Buckets full, really. And for the most part, we're comfortable pressing play and being spoon-fed the story. This, at least in part, explains the lukewarm reception - commercially speaking - of interactive films. Most of the 'interactivity' centers on controlling the story.

we can learn a lot from his films. a quick list:
1. life and people are impermanent.
2. slow down.
3. look people in the eye.
4. drink tea.
5. be kind.
6. simple things hold the secret.

Protovis composes custom views of data with simple marks such as bars and dots. Unlike low-level graphics libraries that quickly become tedious for visualization, Protovis defines marks through dynamic properties that encode data, allowing inheritance, scales and layouts to simplify construction. Protovis is free and open-source, provided under the BSD License. It uses JavaScript and SVG for web-native visualizations; no plugin required (though you will need a modern web browser)! Although programming experience is helpful, Protovis is mostly declarative and designed to be learned by example.
We're seeing a lot of action in the key/value map/reduce world lately. On the one hand this is because simpler stuff scales more simply, and on the other because key/value and B-Tree stores map cleanly to some fundamental algorithms.

Graphic cards contain a lot of very fast RAM, typically between 64 and 512 MB. With Linux, it's possible to use it as swap space, or even as RAM disk.
It happens quite often that a blogger publishes posts or static pages on a regular basis which have the same structure. Think about for example a "picture of the day" daily post. With current wordpress state, we need to spend a lot of time doing copy/paste between posts instead of actually writing content. All the instructions for installation, the support forums, etc. can be found on the plugin home page. IMPORTANT: LICENSE CHANGE Since version 4.0.0, the plugin has become a commercial plugin. It can be ordered (for cheap) on the plugin home page. Version 3.4.x will remain available for download for free on the WordPress plugin repository. No further development will be made on this version.

Underscore is a utility-belt library for JavaScript that provides a lot of the functional programming support that you would expect in Prototype.js (or Ruby), but without extending any of the built-in JavaScript objects. It's the tie to go along with jQuery's tux.
