Changing my gender to male on Google+ improved my What's Hot experience Google+ has updated how they distribute content to users through Explore
Earlier today, +Kimberly Chapman told me about a little experiment she'd done. She'd opened a tab on her browser and directed it to plus.google.com/explore, a stream that enables you to see the hottest content on Google+. In another tab, Chapman changed her gender on her Google+ profile from female to male, and then loaded the Explore page into another tab.
The difference was astonishing. "As a girl, I get stupid warm-fuzzy meaningless shit," Chapman writes on a post (http://goo.gl/ZDBxT). "As a guy, I get nerdy stuff. This is not okay. I get that [What's Hot] algorithms are based on what people click, like, share, comment on, etc. Fine. But I challenge anyone to give me one good reason why there should ... more »

I'm a bit confused about Babel (that is, new Hangouts) and XMPP. From poking around a bit with Empathy, connecting to talk.google.com via XMPP, messages posted to and received from Babel still seem to show up via XMPP, suggesting that interop may still be a thing. On the other hand, I can no longer see S2S XMPP contacts via G+, while I can still see them on Gmail.
If Google allows XMPP to continue being a protocol for accessing Babel, then I think that's a fine path forward. If, however, they disable S2S features, that's a real shame.

Everytime I look at this project, it just gets more awesome. I have long said that a lack of true homoiconicity is what prevents Python from being as amazing for symbolics as it is for numerics.

This is really neat analysis of what words are associated with men versus women in a week's worth of New York Times articles. It includes a step-by-step explanation of how the analysis was done in Python, along with relevant code snippets.

Fascinating. I'm looking forward to seeing more high quality gaming on Android, especially if it means that we'll see better input mechanisms than touchscreens becoming more prevalant.

So, I'm loving GitHub. I used it to redo my personal website (www.cgranade.com), as I find plaintext editing and `git commit -a -m $MESSAGE; git push` much easier than working with Google Sites. Jekyll's a really nice engine for simple, clean, static sites.

Maher gets a lot right in this segment, and it's an interesting question to ask. On the other hand, he goes off the rails at the end when he says things like "the dick pic is the new business card." That sort of statement, whether in jest or not, serves to normalize online abuse and harassment. We can legitimately discuss whether Weiner's infractions should bar him from returning to politics, but we should do so without normalizing those infractions.

Sad to see the cinematic drive of B:TS undermined by the shitfest that is the modern video game industry. That said, I'm still excited about the game.

Blender 2.67 is now available. There is a 3-D printing toolkit for this version. There is also a training DVD for 3-D printing. If I actually bought DVDs I would spend the €27.

Learned today of the existence of Stop The Cyborgs. Needless to say, I have very mixed feelings about this, but let me try to at least get a few thoughts down.
First and foremost, it's absurd to call Google Glass users "cyborgs," and that absurdity can reasonably be seen as bigotry against people with implants. I suspect that this probably isn't their intent, but as Alice Sheppard pointed out the other day (http://aliceingalaxyland.blogspot.co.uk/2013/04/in-sleep-king.html), that doesn't excuse bigoted language. As implants and augmentations become more noticable, more dramatic, more elective and more common, I fully expect the corresponding bigotry to become more pronounced, so why not nip it in the bud now, and say what we mean? Stop the Cyborgs could, for instance, be called Stop the Gargoyles (with apologies to Neal Stephenson), getting closer to the actual issue... more »

Oh, Mark Ruffalo, you are awesome. Ruffalo is made aware of the "Science Bros" meme, which involves lotsa drawings of Tony Stark and Bruce Banner together, and thinks it's awesome.

An absolutely brilliant ad. Couldn't agree more with its message.
Apparently, the reason the book has been banned is as follows:
in 1990 - "An award-winning adaptation of the classic Grimm's fairy tale has been pulled from the recommended reading list because the heroine has wine in the basket she brings her grandmother.
``It gives the younger ones the wrong impression about alcohol. If they should refrain, why give them a story saying it's OK?'' said Vera Jashni, assistant superintendent for instruction." http://community.seattletimes.nwsource.com/archive/?date=19900519&slug=1072598
Utterly mad.

Computing Feynman path integrals and doing your taxes in the same evening isn't a good idea. I had dreams that the sums on my tax form were only conditionally convergent, so the result depended upon the order that I entered my receipts...

I want to tell you a very unpleasant truth about climate change. It's a lot more serious than we've been discussing in public.
(Warning the first: This is not going to be a cheerful sort of post. It will, very likely, leave you feeling deeply unsettled. If you do not want this, you should stop reading now.)
(Warning the second: This is not a post on which to say "I don't believe climate change is happening!" or "this is a left-wing plot!" or "I don't believe there's adequate proof that humans are causing it!" There are times that I have the patience and interest to discuss what are essentially political arguments about science, and this is not one of them. If you believe this stuff, it's because you have a deep personal need to do so, and best of luck to you with that. But I'll just delete such comments on this post.)
