No, really… Nothing.

    • Are photographers all secretly super brave? July 12, 2009
      Shared by wolfger Holy shit. Because, let me tell you, after watching this guy come within an inch of his life -- and not even blink -- I am amazed. In contrast, to get a picture of how I would've reacted, you'd need to imagine Daffy Duck, with his tail on fire, being chased by flying piranhas, over a series of low-rolling hills off into the ho […]

    • The ATM Vulnerability You Won't Hear About July 10, 2009
      Shared by wolfger Because if we don't tell anybody about the gaping security hole, it doesn't exist... The talk has been pulled from the BlackHat conference: Barnaby Jack, a researcher with Juniper Networks, was to present a demonstration showing how he could jackpot a popular ATM brand by exploiting a vulnerability in its software. Jack was s […]

    • XDM Arrived But You Can’t Have It Yet July 9, 2009
      Nine pallets of XDM arrived at the Tayler House today. You can’t have yours yet, though, because Tracy and Curtis won’t be back in town to sign pre-orders until next week. In order to only stock for immediate demand we needed to shift six of these pallets off to our warehousing facility. This meant getting on the Schlock Hotline and calling Jon Krupp, who ge […]

      AbyssWyrm writes "Yesterday, Pandora founder Tim Westergren announced that the music service was on safe ground once again, but will no longer be free for all users. Instead, it will be really cheap — for those with a free account, there will be a cap of 40 hours per month, and a user may pay a one-time fee of $0.99 to resume unlimited listening to musi […]

    • Introducing the Google Chrome OS July 8, 2009
      Shared by wolfger I am now officially somewhat frightened of Google. They do seem to be on a quest for global domination. Which isn't to say that I'm not looking forward to checking out these netbooks... It's been an exciting nine months since we launched the Google Chrome browser. Already, over 30 million people use it regularly. We design […]

    • Why People Don't Understand Risks July 7, 2009
      Yesterday's Minneapolis Star Tribune had the front-page headline: "Co-sleeping kills about 20 infants each year." (The headline in the web article is different.) The only problem is, in either case, there's no additional information with which to make sense of the statistic. How many infants don't die each year? How many infants […]

101-a-day

Posted by wolfger on February 20, 2008

That is 5-a-day, in binary. I think 101-a-day just sounds much more impressive ;-)
I blogged about this back at the beginning of the month, but now it’s “officially” been kicked off, with lots of prominent people in the community promoting it, and some nifty statistical tools (for Gutsy and Hardy) to let people see how they are doing, and get competitive if they’re so inclined. Of course, I had to go and find a bug in the tool itself, but that doesn’t count as one of my 5, because it’s not an Ubuntu bug :-( The important thing, though, is that we in the Michigan LoCo rock, and we (mostly greg-g) figured out how to make it work. Go, us.

    For a second there I thought you were a madman and stayed up all night triaging bugs!

    Let the Michigan team rock on!
