Yesod Web Framework. The future of data analysis (1962) from Tukey. JavaScript AST trickery with burrito. U.S. life expectancy declines. British PM announces inquiry into tabloid scandal, calls for new press regulation system. England seems less attractive. What is the best governed country in the world as of now? (What is the best governed state within the US?) What do current trends point to? Congress Tries To Hide Massive Data Retention Law By Pretending It's An Anti-Child Porn Law.
Ask HN: Best Python Framework for Google App Engine?. Divide-and-Conquer Matrix Factorization. Bayes' rule in Haskell, or why drug tests don't work. (Also relevant to airport security.) A single paper everyone should read?.
漫画 = cartoon. Text as text: "今天我来给大家示范一下怎么样杀海象", "你这里有点脏哦", "哪里". (You can see I still haven't figured out how to type a few of the characters.) 给 (gei3) = to give. 示范 (shi4 fan4) = demonstration. 杀 (sha1) = to kill. 海象 (hai3 xiang4) = walrus. (海 = sea, as in 上海 (Shanghai), 象 = elephant.) 脏 (zang4) = dirty. (I kind of wonder if I'm missing some political or racial message behind this.)
