Node.js is genuinely exciting

by marco & 1 other
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.

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.

yellowBird Video Platform Puts You In the Middle, But Can It Tell a Story? - Jawbone.tv - The Evolution of Story.

by sbrothier
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.

Protovis

by parmentierf & 2 others (via)
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.

A jQuery Plugin for Zoomable, Interactive Maps - New Media Campaigns

asic css file is included with the demo zip.

Obviously a lot of embellishment can be added to make the map look as g

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.

A Thanksgiving Gift – 7 Days of Source Code | blprnt.blg

by karlcow

When it comes to releasing source code, I’ve always been torn. I really believe in the philosophy of open source, but I’m intimidated by putting my code out there for everyone to see. Underneath it all, I’m probably scared of being exposed as some kind of a charlatan (”You call that programming?”). So, to pre-empt that possibility, I’ll start by saying this: I’m not a great programmer. My code is clean and fairly well-structured, but don’t expect to find any particularly advanced code wizardry or complicated mathematics. I do, however, think that the projects that I’ll be sharing over the week contain some good ideas, and a lot of helpful techniques. Hopefully you’ll find one or all of them useful.

RMagick Download Page

by ycc2106 & 2 others
RMagick is an interface between the Ruby programming language and the ImageMagick® and GraphicsMagick image processing libraries. RMagick can be more difficult to install than the typical Ruby extension. First you have to install ImageMagick or GraphicsMagick, and those libraries require a lot of other libraries. Nevertheless, the process can be made easier with a bit of planning. On this page I'll try to answer the most common questions about installing RMagick. Give it a quick scan before you start downloading files.
