the node.js aesthetic :: The Universe of Discord

by karlcow

The "batteries included" approach may have struck a worthwhile tradeoff back when package managers were primitive and modules were global, but that advantage evaporates in the face of baked-in concurrent library versioning and sophisticated package management.

un exemple est l'état de certaines librairies python. Catastrophique.

For a time, one of the easier ways to buy them was to first use Paypal to buy Linden dollars, the virtual currency in Second Life, then trade them within that make-believe universe for bitcoins.

Passer par PayPal et acheter des Linden Dollars pour avoir des bitcoins ? Ces gens là méritent une peine : la privation d'internet.

by Takwann
The Multi Dimensional Paradigms of Self-Defense is a model that describes a person’s overall view of the universe self-defense. Everyone’s viewpoint is different, but viewpoints can still be categorized in groups. The MDP model helps explain the basic differences in viewpoints. It provides people a framework to expand and evolve their self-defense paradigm into one with a more comprehensive viewpoint.

Sci-Fi Starship Size Comparison » Star Trek Minutiae

by sbrothier
I have been a fan of science fiction for more than fifteen years, since my parents introduced me to Star Wars some time in 1991. Since then, I’ve become obsessed to varying degrees with shows including Star Trek, Babylon 5, Farscape, Andromeda, and others. The infinite realm of possibilities presented through these stories has great appeal to me — but I’ve loved different shows for different reasons. I love Star Trek for its optimistic tone and its incredibly detailed universe. Farscape caught my eye because of its refreshing, casual tone and the writers’ willingness to take risks in order to produce an exciting, entertaining series. And Babylon 5 stole my heart with its stirring, inspiring, all-encompassing series arc about the conflict between Order and Chaos.

Ki Musubi No Tachi | Takemusu Aikido South Africa | Aikido South Africa

by Takwann
“All Aikido techniques begin with blending movements. Tai-jutsu, the ken and jo techniques all begin with blending movements. This type of movement represents the essence of Aikido. We can learn this important principle through practice of the ken. We both raise our swords above our heads, matching movements. We have the feeling of absorbing the ki of the universe and we attempt to cultivate a mushin or self-less state in the same way as in zazen seated meditation. As his strike comes, I move off to the right and counter-strike. When he tries to raise his sword to attack me, I thrust him from below by matching his movement. Then, I avoid his strike moving to the left and strike him. He steps backward to raise his sword and I match his movement, cutting him at the wrist.” – Morihiro Saito Sensei

Transmedia: A Naive But Omnivorous Form - JawboneTV

by gregg
there is no clear agreement on what defines a transmedia project, though Henry Jenkins, MIT Professor and author of the canonical Convergence Culture, has defined 7 core principles of transmedia narrative. More generally I’d argue that all transmedia properties exhibit the following four properties: 1.    all platforms are considered from the inception of the project as valid vehicles to support narrative; 2.    different platforms are used to tell different aspects of a story; 3.    participation and sharing is encouraged (but not necessary); 4.    while users are encouraged to draw connections between platforms, stories can exist separately from one another in the fictive universe.   Like any genre it’s defined by cliché, so many transmedia properties feature one or more of the following: a conspiracy theory, a young girl in peril, a kidnapping, some hackers, a sinister corporate organization subverting the state, a pandemic, an eco-disaster, a war in Africa/the Middle East, terrorists, CCTV cameras you can hack, clues in the source code that require you to phone a journalist’s mobile answering machine, etc…

Real-Time News Curation - The Complete Guide Part 6: The Tools Universe

What tools do I need to do "content curation"? Do I need a different technology if I want to curate the news and not the rest? How about if I want to curate only video clips. Is there something just for that? How many "curation" tools are out there and what are the key differences among them?

Twitter Creator Jack Dorsey on Plane Crashes, the Ghost of Britney Spears, and the Difficulty of Defining Influence | Fast Company

by alphoenix
If you're addicted to crafting the perfect 140 character tweet haiku, you can thank--or curse--Twitter creator Jack Dorsey. The former taxi, courier and emergency services dispatcher--and current Twitter chairman and CEO of credit card payment company Square--believes there's a universe in every tweet and that less can lead to so much more. Over a couple of conversations, we talked about how Twitter learned to use Twitter, how Britney Spears could be more inspiring to her 5.5 million followers, and what he thinks is next with social media.
