I’ve been a bit lax (ha!) in keeping up the blog lately. My apologies for withholding from you.
As mentioned previously, the saving the world bit is on the tiring side, and the writing stuff is on the high energy side, and seldom did the ‘twain meet.
When one is pouring all of one’s emotional energy into [...]

Done in the third [...]

You can begin to catch up here.
I would HIGHLY recommend you catch up before joining in, this is a conversation that had been going on for a while, and it would behoove one to read up before joining in.
Thanks.

I just thought of another good one, “Philosophy is an Action.”
If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know. I’ve already written down some predictions of what people will think of it, and I want to check my work.
Joel, you first.

or as some people call it “Gay Marriage.”
Just a quick follow up to a conversation I’ve been having. I don’t think this is going to make the first version of the book (although it might, because I like the phrasing). The setup is this post over here (yes, I’ve been engaging in various theological debates [...]

This is a really sad day. Not that Steve is dead yet, but having some personal history and knowledge of pancreatic cancer, it’s not a good sign that he isn’t speaking at Macworld.
One of the first computers I ever used was one he (and his nerd buddy, Steve Wozniak) designed and sold. It was a [...]

[Alternate post title....Wah vs Leo]
Some of you may remember my efforts to help a fellow human being stop making a fool of himself a few days ago. That post, and argument, is here.

Ran across this while doing some background research for that book I’m writing (which is going very well, thanks for asking). Yea, I know, too much blogging, not enough writing. I’ll get back to it. This whole cognitive/blognitive dissonance thing has been fun to explore. What is happening in the [...]

In Visual Image Reconstruction from Human Brain Activity using a Combination of Multiscale Local Image Decoders, Miyawaki et al demonstrate visual input prediction using fMRI responses. Using 3mm3 voxels, the group measured the activity level across early visual cortex (V1-V4) for numerous 10×10 binary patterns of visual stimuli. They looked at correlations in 1×1, 1×2, 2×1 [...]

I put together this video the other day to compare and contrast the ending sequences of Fallout 3 and Fable 2.
Both these games are pretty amazing in their own respects, I did a longer compare and contrast post here.
They also employ the same end-game-sequence creator theory, in that the final cut scenese (as shown below) [...]
