Killing some temptations

Tue, 09 Apr 2013 19:43:00 -0400

I like browsing tumblr. I like the android app for tumblr. I use it a lot. This is bad for work. I don’t want to un-install it. I want to get used to NOT browsing tumblr while working.

Solution: Yet another Tasker profile that makes me browse either very early or late in the night.

Context
* Load App - Tumblr (add as many apps as you want/need ie. Facebook)
* Day of the week - Tue, Wed, Thu, Fri, Sat (yes, that’s my week)
* Time of the day - 8:00 to 19:00

Task
* Disable Wifi
* Disable Mobile Network
* Vibrate Notification: NO!
* Kill App - Tumblr (add the same apps as added above)

Next: do the same in laptop… pffft

Enable "text selection"

When some websites disable the selection of text or the right click, a very useful bookmarklet can be used: Allan Hogan’s text-selection bookmarklet.

“This pattern is not just useful, not just beautiful, it’s inevitable. This is why science and mathematics are so much fun, you discover things that seem impossible to be true and then get to figure out why it’s impossible for them not to be.”

A wonderful series about, well, spirals, the Fibonacci sequence and, being a plant.

Abelardo Morell, Tent-Camera Image on Ground: View of the Golden Gate Bridge From Battery Yates, 2012

The work behind is not only incredible but simple and by simple, I don’t mean easy. The installation and the process to get these pictures are inspiring.

From Discover Mag

“Recently, I began to wonder what it would be like to marry images of landscapes with the surface of the ground nearby. I have worked with my assistant, C.J. Heyliger, on designing a light proof tent that, via periscope type optics, makes it possible to project a view of the nearby landscape onto whatever ground is under the tent. Inside this darkened space I use a view camera to record the effect, which I think is a rather wonderful sandwich of two outdoor realities coming together. This Tent-Camera now liberates me to use camera obscura techniques in a world of new places.”

““So humanity has known for a long time what fractals are. It is a very strange situation in which an idea which each time I look at all documents have deeper and deeper roots, never (how to say it), jelled.””

eyeheartnewyork:

Just like last year, @WNYC comes through with a helpful evacuation map.

The areas that need to evacuate include, according to the NYT:

The waterfront fringes of Sunset Park, Williamsburg and Greenpoint in Brooklyn

Most of coastal Staten Island.

The Rockaways and parts of Long Island City in Queens.

City Island in the Bronx.

Barely close to Zone C!
