I just got a call from #GoDaddy. The rep said he noticed that I'd transferred my 60+ domains away, and wanted to know if I'd tell them why. I got to tell them that it was because of their #SOPA support, and that I couldn't in good conscience give my money to a tech company that would support legislation like that. I told him I was aware that they had reversed their position, but that their explicit support of it in the first place had cost them my confidence in them, as it is at the best viciously ignorant, and at worst, malicious. The rep was quite sincere in his apology to me, asked if there was anything they could do to win me back. He had a "We support IP protections, and now realize that support of SOPA is too broad" song-and-dance routine that probably came in from a PR memo today. I told him "no thanks", and that was that. I'm impressed by the customer service... more »

iPhone 4s Bluetooth 4le APIs, kindof curious if anyone is planning to use them for something. Do modern Androids support it as well? This has some interesting possibilities above what NFC chips offer

A few days ago I wrote a post trying to correct a lot of the inaccurate statements I have seen repeatedly mentioned about how graphics on Android works. This resulted in a lot of nice discussion, but unfortunately has also lead some people to come up with new, novel, and often technically inaccurate complaints about how Android works.

These new topics have been more about some fundamental design decisions in Android, and why they are wrong. I’d like to help people better understand (and judge) these discussions by giving some real background on why Android’s UI was designed the way it is and how it actually works.

One issue that has been raised is that Android doesn’t use thread priorities to reduce how much background work interrupts the user interface. This is outright wrong. It actually uses a number of priorities, which you can even find defined right herehttp:... more »

Follow up to “Android graphics true facts”, or The Reason Android is Laggy

Yesterday +Dianne Hackborn posted to Google+ an article that dismissed the common accusation that Android is laggy because UI rendering wasn’t hardware accelerated until Honeycomb:

https://plus.google.com/105051985738280261832/posts/2FXDCz8x93s

It’s an insightful post that illuminates many of the complex issues with smooth Android rendering. Unfortunately, it doesn’t answer the fundamental question asked by both technical and nontechnical android users:

Why is Android laggy, while iOS, Windows Phone 7, QNX, and WebOS are fluid?

This post will attempt to answer that question.

However before I jump in, a couple disclaimers. First, I am a 3rd year undergraduate software engineering student. I interned on the Android team, and +Romain Guy who wasresponsib... more »

So I got a iphone4s nice device for what i do at work (ios development atm) but unfortunately Siri does not like my accent too much. Setting appointments work well same with reminders but smsing people is trouble also it has issues with non English names. Tried using it while running to work and results are hilarious.

Japan Lovers Circle

#SharedCircles #Lovers #Free #Ticket #To #Japan #Re-share #+1 #Recommended #Japanese

(Updated: 2011/Oct/24 11:30 (JST))

I have created a circle in Google Plus, named "Japan Lovers (Japanophilia)" in order to detect who are real Japan Lovers and I might think that I could recommend to the Government of Japan to free-ticket to Japan (Planned in 2012). Please +1 to this post or leave a note as a comment. Thank you in advance. -- THIS IS A POWERFUL CHALLENGE!!
cf. http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/lifestyle/2011/10/10000-free-round-trip-tickets-to-japan/

# OF COURSE, People who live in Japan, genuine Japanese people would be appreciative, as well.
# RE-SHARING, +1, AND REPORTING TO ME WOULD BE ALSO RECOMMENDED!! GREAT CONTRIBUTIONS WILL LET YOU GET THE FREE-TICKET MORE EASIER!! This is So Called "Google Way" !!... more »

Just added +Mark MacLaren Johnson +Chris Willson +david edenfield and +tomoaki M to the Japan Photog circle. All great guys -- add them. The circle below if you've missed it in the past.

日本を拠点にしている、あるいは主に日本で撮影または写真を発表しているGoogle+の写真家リストです
（プロ、アマ問わず）　ぜひ、まとめてサークルを追加してください。

Photographers (pro & amateur) who are either based in Japan or mainly publish photos from Japan. Circle them :-)

(Psst -- if you like Japan and photography share this circle. And if you know any other Japan photogs, let me know)

I was warmly surprised to see how many people responded to my Google+ post about Dennis Ritchie's untimely passing. His influence on the technical community was vast, and it's gratifying to see it recognized. When Steve Jobs died there was a wide lament - and well-deserved it was - but it's worth noting that the resurgence of Apple depended a great deal on Dennis's work with C and Unix.

The C programming language is quite old now, but still active and still very much in use. The Unix and Linux (and Mac OS X and I think even Windows) kernels are all C programs. The web browsers and major web servers are all in C or C++, and almost all of the rest of the Internet ecosystem is in C or a C-derived language (C++, Java), or a language whose implementation is in C or a C-derived language (Python, Ruby, etc.). C is also a common implementation language for network firmware. And on and... more »

"Remembering that I'll be dead soon is the most important tool I've ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Because almost everything — all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure - these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart."

Route 11 Daiba Line, Koto Ward: Thank you for putting me in your circle. I'm feeling great that I've had so many people now, but I'm feeling a little odd because I'm topping some famous Japanese IT celebrities. Anyway, I have added a new photo to my favorite "Expressways" album. This is the last night expressway shot before the 3/11 earthquake hit Japan. I went onto the bank under construction at midnight to shoot this. I'm not sure if you can reach there now. The second Rainbow Bridge shot was taken at the same spot.
