Dynamic Diagrams : Information Design Watch : The Virtue of Forgetting

by karlcow

Now today there are few human beings who, for biological reasons, cannot forget. What sounds like a blessing, they certainly do remember where they parked their car in a shopping mall. It turns out that they have tremendous difficulties in acting in time, in deciding in time, because they remember all their bad, failed decisions in the past, and therefore hesitate to make a decision in the present.

Experience History: Berlin 1961-1989 « Flickr Blog

by karlcow

We’ve created the Experience History: Berlin 1961-1989 group, to give members the opportunity to share photographic memories of divided Berlin during this period. If you were living or visiting Berlin at that time, this is a wonderful excuse to rediscover your old slides and dust off those photo-filled shoe boxes that are lurking under your bed.

Mes photos sont en Normandie. hmmm il faut que je demande.

How to Hide Certain Custom Fields From the Edit Post Page | Apartment One Six

by mozkart
The WordPress developers, fortunately, thought of this.  In fact, they store all kinds of stuff that they don’t want the user to see in custom fields – things like the last time the post was edited, who is currently editing it, and a few others.  A quick look at the database, reveals this:Notice a trend?  The mysterious custom field key values are prepended with an underscore.  Give it a try – enter a new custom field from the edit-post page, and enter a name that starts with an underscore – like _thumbnail, or _meta_keywords.  Hit “Add Custom Field”, and it disappears – but if you check the database, its right where it should be. Now get out there and start hiding things from your users!

WordPress › Post Templates « WordPress Plugins

by mozkart (via)
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.

Médias sociaux » Archive du blog » Un pas de plus vers le web social en temps réel avec Cliqset

by Nissone
" Frédéric CAVAZZA Un pas de plus vers le web social en temps réel avec Cliqset 4 commentaires Publié par Frédéric CAVAZZA le 2 octobre 2009 dans Actualité Depuis le rachat cet été de FriendFeed par Facebook et la publication du code source de Tornado, le serveur qui va avec, nous pensions que le créneau des services d’agrégation sociale était bouché.

Pour faire simple, Cliqset est un service d’agrégation qui permet de compiler votre activité sur les différents médias sociaux (70 services en tout), de les retraiter en un format standardiser (Activity Streams) et de le rendre accessible (au travers d’API) dans un flux unique et temps réel."

Gentoo Optimizations Benchmarked | Linux Magazine

by greut

Although we are not comparing apples to apples, Gentoo did out-perform Ubuntu in almost every test, and sometimes by a fair margin. It does appear that optimizing for a specific CPU can yield a decent performance increase.

Of course, Gentoo offers benefits in other areas with their USE flags and being able to build a highly customized system. The question is whether the amount of time it takes is worth the benefit, and that’s a personal choice.

FFFFFUUUUUUUUU - Sharenator.org Original

by Spone
This is my favorite 4chan meme. I've spent half of my boring day in the office looking for the best rage threads and made this collection. I'd love to credit authors but most of them seem to be... anonymous. I found some of these on 4chan, some on sites like digg, reddit, some on google (and it wasn't easy to find something with unknown number of F's and U's in the file name), etc. These are the best of them in one place. Enjoy!

While the finer details of HTML5 are still being finalised, Firefox, Safari, Chrome and Opera have offered support for much of the new technology for some time.
