  1. Facebook wants your real name on Facebook Helps Israel Blacklist Air Travellers · · Score: 1

    I think this a good example why enforcing real names is evil.

    The activists had no other choice than using their real names, otherwise their accounts might have been blocked.

  2. Well, there is a "superbug" out there right now on New Superbug Strain Found In Cows and People · · Score: 1

    As you may already have heard, a new strain of E. Coli (EHEC) is spreading in Central Europe (northern Germany seems to be the epicenter) and has killed 18 people so far.

  3. Dark fiber? on Google Formula For Adding New Products · · Score: 1

    This article appears interesting to me. However, rather speculative...

  4. ICFP programming contest on Kamikaze Novel Writing · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Take part in the ICFP programming contest. It's exactly about that. And the time you have there is 72 hours.

  5. Well, there are a lot of websites on Iran: Even If Windows Is Free, Linux Is Preferred · · Score: 1

    Ironically, there are quite a lot of iranian websites that require this evil imperialistic US browser. Try

    Iran Air

  7. Re:Minimal impact on Spanish Internet Provider's SMTP traffic Blocked · · Score: 1

    Well, ISPs are using this list without asking their customers. It's not only arrogant towards Spain, but also towards these customers.

  8. The key problem on Spanish Internet Provider's SMTP traffic Blocked · · Score: 1

    Who gives them the right to exert this power? They are not empowered by any legislation or democratic procedure...

  9. Re:Atlantic anomalously COOL right now on Rare South Atlantic Hurricane Heads Toward Brazil · · Score: 1

    Cyclone formation is driven by temperature gradients, rather than average temperature, and the fact that the (normally slightly warmer) water on the continental shelf is warmer than usual, whereas the deepwater areas are colder, leads to the conclusion that the temperature gradient is much higher than usual.

    However, tropical cyclones result from a vertical temperature gradient - rising warm, moist air over warm water - not a horizontal one.
