De la difficulté de faire simple - Stage et entretien avec Joël Barillet
by Takwann
(via)
Avec le temps et l'expérience, je suis de plus en plus impressionné par ce qui est simple. Que ce soit dans la vie de tous les jours ou dans la pratique d'un budo, la simplicité recèle bien souvent une grande complexité. J'ai profité du passage de Joël Barillet ce week-end, professeur 5° Dan résidant à Tours venu animer un stage dans au dojo, pour discuter de ce thème. Il faut dire que tout le stage était axé là-dessus : comment rendre simple un mouvement.

Today we'd like to share with the web community information about SPDY, pronounced "SPeeDY", an early-stage research project that is part of our effort to make the web faster. SPDY is at its core an application-layer protocol for transporting content over the web. It is designed specifically for minimizing latency through features such as multiplexed streams, request prioritization and HTTP header compression.

HTML5 Validator Needs Updating. from Maykel Loomans on 2009-10-20 (www-validator@w3.org from October 2009)
by night.kame
Ever since the HTML5 footer has been redefined I have changed the markup of http://www.miekd.com/
At the current stage, the validator has still not been updated to
match this spec change. I am aware of the giant draft/beta sticker on
the validator, but I would really love to have an up-to-date validator.
Encore un qui n'a rien compris à HTML 5, mwahahahaha.

Kap Bambino
Kap Bambino closed the festival in the Les Inrocks stage
Kap Bambino capped off Jersey Live 2009 with a performance whose vicious energy, no other artist could match.
The French duo, fronted by peroxide blonde Caroline Martial, are famed for their high octane performances and failed to disappoint when they took to the stage last night.
"Insane", BBC Introducing's Ryan Morrison said when asked to describe the act, "simply insane."

Personas | Metropath(ologies) | An installation by Aaron Zinman
by gregg
& 2 others
Enter your name, and Personas scours the web for information and attempts to characterize the person - to fit them to a predetermined set of categories that an algorithmic process created from a massive corpus of data. The computational process is visualized with each stage of the analysis, finally resulting in the presentation of a seemingly authoritative personal profile.

We’re currently in the middle of stage one: Ben Turner and Chris Jones have borrowed the IPC message-passing and setup code from Chromium. We even have some very simple plugins loading across the process boundary! Most of the team is in Mountain View this week and we’re sprinting to see if we can implement a very basic tab in a separate process today and tomorrow.

Exposure Fusion: What is it? How does it Compare to HDR? How Do I Do It?

Exposure Fusion Software
At this stage Exposure Fusion is still in its infancy, so there’s only a handful of programs to choose from.
Enfuse is the primary tool for Exposure Fusion at the moment, and although it is a command line utility, there are ‘‘droplets’‘ (batch files) available that you can drag and drop a series of images onto to create a fused image.
Ingemar Bergmark has produced a GUI for it, not surprisingly called EnfuseGui, which can be a little easier if you aren’t too keen on command lines. If you’ve got Lightroom then one of the more convenient ways is to use the plugin. It still uses the command line utility in the background (you have to tell it where your enfuse.exe is), but the process looks more refined. However, the plugin is donation-ware so its limited to 500px final images until you donate to get the full version. There is currently no plugin for Photoshop. If you’re into photo stitching then PTgui and Hugin may be of interest to you. These programs utilise Exposure Fusion by stitching and fusing bracketed sequences together, with some pretty nice results.

Crammed / Staff Benda Bilili 'Très Très Fort'
by fotopol
ensemble congolais
Four senior singer/guitarists sitting on tricycles, occasionally dancing on the floor of the stage, arms raised in joyful supplication, are the core or the band, backed by a younger, all-acoustic rhythm section pounding out tight beats. Over the top of this are weird, infectious guitar-like solos performed by a 17 year-old prodigy on a one-string electric lute he designed and built himself out of a tin can.
Bre Pettis | I Make Things - Bre Pettis Blog - The Cult of Done Manifesto

- There are three states of being. Not knowing, action and completion.
- Accept that everything is a draft. It helps to get it done.
- There is no editing stage.
- Pretending you know what you're doing is almost the same as knowing what you are doing, so just accept that you know what you're doing even if you don't and do it.
- Banish procrastination. If you wait more than a week to get an idea done, abandon it.
- The point of being done is not to finish but to get other things done.
- Once you're done you can throw it away.
- Laugh at perfection. It's boring and keeps you from being done.
- People without dirty hands are wrong. Doing something makes you right.
- Failure counts as done. So do mistakes.
- Destruction is a variant of done.
- If you have an idea and publish it on the internet, that counts as a ghost of done.
- Done is the engine of more.
