IOActive Labs Research: I can still see your actions on Google Maps over SSL
shows the concept of SSL traffic analysis pretty well. It also might be easier to understand for less technically inclined people, as in "An attacker can still figure out what you're looking at on Google Maps" (with the addendum that it's never going to be a 100% perfect and that my shoddy proof of concept has lots of room for improvement).

Cambodia Tuk-Tuk Drivers Hit a Bump | News | Khmer-English
While demand is sinking, costs for tuk-tuk drivers continue. Sambath has recently invested in a new tuk-tuk and motor, that cost him close to $2,000. Drivers are also required to pay the government $5 annually to renew their operating licences.According to Sambath, living expenses in Siem Reap have risen, especially in the areas of housing and food, making it more difficult for the working class to make ends meet. He said more than a third of drivers' salaries go to room rentals, as most of them come from villages in search of better job opportunities in Siem Reap.

size matters.When Meg and I went to Italy for our belated honeymoon I packed a 5d MkII with me and took about five pictures with it because I left it in the room most of the time because I simply tired of carrying that beast around on vacation.

It’s true that those API’s would better be defined in a clean, independent forum analogous to the W3C than inside the boiler-room of development at any single cloud provider, but that’s a secondary issue.

Libyan Rebels Are Flying Their Own Minidrone | Danger Room | Wired.com
ahah. Love the Do not worry, it's not armed. DIY war.Aeryon Labs, a Canadian defense firm, revealed on Tuesday that it had quietly provided the rebel forces with a teeny, tiny surveillance drone, called the Aeryon Scout. Small enough to fit into a backpack, the 3-pound, four-rotor robot gave Libyan forces eyes in the sky independent of the Predators, Fire Scout surveillance copters and manned spy planes that NATO flew overhead. Don’t worry, it’s not armed.
Nurture the Difference Between New York and Silicon Valley - Room for Debate - NYTimes.com
apologie de la grotte.To be in Silicon Valley is to be completely immersed in technology. The building, the pushing, the hacking, the designing, the iterating, the testing, the acquisitions, the funding — it is everywhere and wholly inescapable. Here is a culture and place that emerged seemingly from nothing, and yet over the last 50 years it has developed a mythology deep and inspiring and all its own.

complete and utterly bullshit from Anne. The WHATWG is very successful at **removing people who are into the way**. Sometimes, I wonder if whatwg live in a 1000 mirrors room where they see only themselves.I think with the WHATWG improvement just happens. More as a byproduct of the larger goal and not really getting in the way of anybody. At the W3C there is too much bureaucracy for "just happens" and so instead of working on what you want to be working on, you have to argue about rules.

Rania Matar - Recent Projects - A Girl and her Room Project Statement
From there, emerged the idea of photographing each girl alone. I originally let the girls choose the place of their choice and was slowly welcomed into their bedrooms, an area that is theirs, that they can fully control, decorate, trash and be themselves in – within an outside world that is often intimidating.

James Nizan | Anteroom Series | bumbumbum
The Anteroom Series by James Nizam is a beautiful and mindbending series of photographs. The Vancuver-based artist turned soon to be demolished homes into room size camera obscuras.
