A few of my Sunday morning thoughts on demographics and the web.  Of course, we're now hearing stories that Facebook is having trouble transitioning its business model to mobile....

Methinks I need to learn some more Python magic to make this program faster... a profiler would probably be good.

I go to a lot of conferences. If you ask my co-workers, I probably go to too many conferences. Going to a lot of conferences, I get a chance to see a lot of keynotes, closing keynotes, and plenary discussions. Different conferences have different keynotes, but the one thing that sticks out in my head is that the keynotes and opening talks at a conference set the mood for the entire event.

It's a pity that our copyright laws are so restrictive that no works will enter the public domain in the US for 7 more years.

I love reading about how different companies successfully scale their database infrastructure. Twitter, it turns out, is no different. They use a reasonable amount of custom built code to get the database to do what they want.

The EU is mandating that government data be stored in open format. This is wonderful. Open data for everyone!

I agree wholeheartedly with this article. The author's point is that bridge technologies between our cheap devices (smartphones, iPads, etc) and our expensive devices (cars, refrigerators, home automation systems) will power the future. The expensive devices don't need to be smart, they need to support the technologies that let them appear to be smart.

Reserved instances are great for those of us wanting to run full time production servers (like database servers) in the cloud. This looks to make reserved instances an even more attractive option.
