Ana Somnia - lights out!

by gregg
A whole world waits for you when you turn out the lights. Our imagination works wonders when no one is watching. In our dreams lie childish figures, random shapes and half remembered memories. Ana Somnia is a generative art project that emulates how we dream, combining animation, soundscapes and code. Kim Köster’s Illustrations merge in manifold permutations, seemingly the same, yet different each time. Switch off your lights to enter Ana’s dreamworld

sfManagedCachePlugin | Recoursive

by Xavier Lacot (via)
The very point of caching is that it's faster and less resource intensive to deliver cached data than creating it on the fly. With existing cache solutions, when the cached data expires, it has to be refreshed while the user waits. In environments that rely heavily on caching, such behavior has the potential to create thread pileups and other cascading failure scenarios. This plugin introduces a cache manager : when an expired âge is called, then it is directly served from the cache, and then the cache gets asynchronously refreshed.

CR Blog » Blog Archive » Tom Gauld’s sketchbooks

by karlcow

For a brief glimpse into the working methods of one of the UK’s best illustrators, head on over to Tom Gauld’s new Flickr page, where he has uploaded several of his sketchbook pages. For example, you can see how a cartoon he did for the Guardian entitled, The Street Tom Waits Grew Up On, evolved from a list of ideas and drawings to final artwork…

evserver - Google Code

by greut

EvServer is a lightweight http server, created especially to host python WSGI applications. Additionally, it supports little known Asynchronous WSGI extension, which was suggested by Christopher Stawarz. Using this extension it's possible to create an output html response in many data chunks, without blocking the main server process while your application waits for external resources.

Comet the WSGI way.

tom waits - broken bicycles

by tadeufilippini
Broken bicycles, old busted chains With rusted handle bars, out in the rain Somebody must have an orphanage for All these things that nobody wants any more September's reminding July It's time to be saying goodbye Summer is gone, but our love will remain Like old broken bicycles out in the rain Broken bicycles, don't tell my folks ThereÕs all those playing cards pinned to the spokes Laid down like skeletons out on the lawn The wheels won't turn when the other has gone The seasons can turn on a dime Somehow I forget every time For all the things that you've given me will always stay Broken, but I'll never throw them away lyrics: http://www.stlyrics.com/lyrics/onefromtheheart/brokenbicycles.htm

A Dog Has Died by Pablo Neruda

by tadeufilippini
A Dog Has Died My dog has died. I buried him in the garden next to a rusted old machine. Some day I'll join him right there, but now he's gone with his shaggy coat, his bad manners and his cold nose, and I, the materialist, who never believed in any promised heaven in the sky for any human being, I believe in a heaven I'll never enter. Yes, I believe in a heaven for all dogdom where my dog waits for my arrival waving his fan-like tail in friendship. Ai, I'll not speak of sadness here on earth, of having lost a companion who was never servile. His friendship for me, like that of a porcupine withholding its authority, was the friendship of a star, aloof, with no more intimacy than was called for, with no exaggerations: he never climbed all over my clothes filling me full of his hair or his mange, he never rubbed up against my knee like other dogs obsessed with sex. No, my dog used to gaze at me, paying me the attention I need, the attention required to make a vain person like me understand that, being a dog, he was wasting time, but, with those eyes so much purer than mine, he'd keep on gazing at me with a look that reserved for me alone all his sweet and shaggy life, always near me, never troubling me, and asking nothing. Ai, how many times have I envied his tail as we walked together on the shores of the sea in the lonely winter of Isla Negra where the wintering birds filled the sky and my hairy dog was jumping about full of the voltage of the sea's movement: my wandering dog, sniffing away with his golden tail held high, face to face with the ocean's spray. Joyful, joyful, joyful, as only dogs know how to be happy with only the autonomy of their shameless spirit. There are no good-byes for my dog who has died, and we don't now and never did lie to each other. So now he's gone and I buried him, and that's all there is to it. Translated, from the Spanish, by Alfred Yankauer Pablo Neruda Read poems about / on: dog, believe, sex, heaven, sea, lonely, ocean, winter, sky, star, together, happy, hair, lost, alone

Chefi - Interactive Cooking Guide

by gregg
An Israeli student has developed software on a mobile phone to help you with your cooking woes. Igor Ginzburg came up with the idea of Chefi after being frustrated by being unable to cook. Fed up with constantly having to call someone to come to his aid in the kitchen, he invented an interactive cooking guide. The mobile phone speaks to the person cooking, and waits for a response before it speaks its next set of instructions.

hoverIntent jQuery Plug-in

by nhoizey & 3 others, 1 comment (via)
hoverIntent is a function that attempts to determine the user's intent... like a crystal ball, only with mouse movement! It works like (and was derived from) jQuery's built-in hover. However, instead of immediately calling the onMouseOver function, it waits until the user's mouse slows down enough before making the call.
