I've been having fun going through a Chicagoan's blog called designslinger with pictures of their walks through the city. There's a great post about Chicago brick, and a post that includes a photo of the Old Colony Building being cleaned that illustrates how damn dirty the air in our cities used to be.

Nobody likes doing the dishes. Everybody knows that. Which is why I love the fact that Panasonic is putting money and time into developing a robot that does them for us.
After working out that Dvice got the story from Botjunkie who saw it at Engadget who linked to a Google translation of Impress, which is in Japanese, I went to the PC World article. Because I wondered if Panasonic knew that machines for washing dishes already exist. It turns out they do, and they’re not developing a robot to wash dishes; they’re building a robot that serves food and then reloads the dishwashing machine that was invented a while ago.
Dear technobloggers: you are nerds who write about nerdy things on the internerdnet. You should be a little more concerned with fact-checking, and knowing what the fuck you are talking about, or for that matter linking directly to. Otherwise you will lose your nerd cred.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
I have offered students $5 if they can draw a triangle with 2 right angles. $10 for a triangle with 2 obtuse (but not reflex) angles.

Once they figure out how to draw in the 7th dimension you are gonna be so broke.

If you have a black hole handy, this may be possible.

It's possible to have a triangle with two right angles -- on the surface of a sphere.

people are pissing me off in my office. If people email you wanting an answer, then get back to them. If they start calling me asking for answers I am not running interference for you. seriously.
also, other department, if you need an answer from my boss and he is not in the office, do not ask me about it. I am the assistant, not a decision-maker. honestly. Contact someone at the next level down, call the boss' cell, tattle to your superior, whatever, don't wuss around passive-aggressive with me.
