- Propaganda war: trusting what we see?
Interesting, insightful and informative article examining the propaganda war around the events in Gaza. - A prediction that's a safe bet
"Excess wealth is gone like the codpiece. The free market will continue but any respect for the idea of free money is all over." - Amtrak photo contestant arrested by Amtrak police in NYC’s Penn Station
What for? Why, for trying to enter the competition by taking a photograph, of course! Personally I think the competition is a cunning scheme by Amtrak to flush out all the subversives so the police can arrest them and snuff out this disgusting train photography hobby for once and for all. - OpenTable: So Web 1.0 It Hurts.
Mirrors my experience. OpenTable is definitely ripe for a competitor that is about gathering an epicurean community and delivering it to deserving restaurants. - Cornyn promises filibuster on Franken
Any system contains within it the games that will be used to play it. Corollary: The more complex the system, the easier it is to find ways to game it. Corollary: Complex systems get gamed for longer than simple systems.
