So Instagram is now going to use photos taken by its users in advertising, and they may or may not disclose to viewers when the advertising is happening.

I have no idea how this will work, and I'm once again glad that I don't use Instagram... but I know a lot of people who do, and many of those people are celebrities to some degree.

Here's what I'm wondering: if Kaley Cuoco uses Instagram to share a photo of her and Melissa Rauch doing something silly, does that mean that Instagram can take that photo and use it to advertise for something silly without compensating them for what becomes a use of their likeness for commercial purposes? I can see that being a pretty serious shitstorm if it happens.

This sort of dovetails with another concern I have about the automatic opt-in nature of much of our digital life: if I'm in someone's address book, and they... more »

This Apple v. Samsung ruling reminds me how much I absolutely hate software patents. There isn't anything in the world that stifles innovation than them. Their existence is causing the valley to go into a cold war where everybody hordes piles and piles of them waiting for somebody to make a move. Mutually assured destruction. 

Makes me sick to my stomach.

Spent an hour writing a giant block of text about how I've been depressed lately and I lost it, twice, after hitting the backspace key in Chrome. The one time I want to open up, I'm prevented from doing so. So fuck it.

Home cured pastrami, the end result. Looks amazing but is a bit salty. Forgot to soak it in water prior to smoking. Sigh.

My fridge already smells like pastrami.

Trying my hand at curing some pastrami. Chance of failure is fairly low, so we'll see how it comes out. Will probably smoke it with hickory and apple in two weeks when it's done curing.
