The only tribute in our house is a trophy named after the inventor of the lug-nut. I'll have to paste some photos when I get back home later this week.



When Finnish librarians go rogue!




Vivian Maier was a nanny who, for decades, took photos she never expected anyone to see. She rarely looked at them herself, often didn't develop the negatives and kept the pictures in storage lockers that she eventually stopped paying for so the contents were auctioned off. @Smithsonianmag tells the story of how she came to be considered one of the great street photographers of the 20th century, with a major retrospective on view now at Fotografiska New York.

I'm voting No on Colorado Proposition 131.

Proposition 131 would likely mean our state legislature would see fewer progressives, fewer Democrats, and would increase incentives for dark / outside money in our elections.

I struggled with this one. I think two things sealed it for me: 1) lots of support from wealthy people, while it was opposed by both dems and republicans equally, this set off my radar; 2) it caps the ballot to the top 4 candidates. How is that determined?

I want RCV but not like this.

@knova @ericmbudd Also, rather than helping parties make better decisions or enabling new parties to take hold, it essentially sidelines parties in favor of individual candidates, and the only way individual candidates will get anywhere is being even richer than party candidates.


I made the ThinkPad nub moan.

Our new preprint on the impact of protein phosphorylation on structures is now out!

Protein phosphorylation is a key regulator of cellular processes.It's ubiquitous, yet the function and relevance of most phosphosites is unknown. Understanding phosphosite function requires elucidating the structural mechanisms through which it acts. (1)

I used to play Tremulous back in highschool (I think before the fork) and it was such a blast. I was pretty disappointed when the player base & development all dried up. It is such a fun take on the FPS genre! I hope I can get some time to try the new release out.

404 Media's @jasonkoebler and ProPublica's @ben are discussing how the #fediverse helps #publishers in the latest episode of @mike's #DotSocial podcast. Highly recommended.

This struck me particularly:

Ben is making the case that the Fediverse is the means by which publishers can re-take the initiative with technology instead of simply having to live with whatever the platforms decide. That is powerful stuff!

The picture just gets odder the longer you look at it. A print out of a computer made drawing of two happy looking cats, one of which is coloured in. Fellow with odd taste in clothing is holding a lead pencil as if he is using it to colour in the image to the right.
