Mad Magazine goofs on Apple Maps. I didn't know the original was called View of the World from 9th Ave.
Jazz and Knots
After 10 hours train ride on Amtrak, I am in Montreal for the next two weeks. The Adirondack hits many stations on the way to Canada:
New York Penn Station

Port Henry
Westport
Port Kent

Saint-Lambert
Gare Centrale
2.5 hours in, we were in Albany. We still had 6 hours to the Canadian Boarder. I thought Ticonderoga was where they made pencils.
I had trouble explaining to the Customs girl what "knot theory" was. My internet reception worked right up to the border. Then another hours to Montreal.
This conferences conference on Link Homology. Great speakers like Mikhail Khovanov, Anton Kapustin, Sergei Gukov... It's related to Witten's paper on the Jones polynomial.
This week also happens to be the Montreal Jazz festival. It is free, and each hour they have 3 concerts simultaneously around Place des Artes station. Here is Pedrito Martinez group. The lyrics translate "Nobody knows Havana better than I do."
Do you think people would be interested in a go games question site?http://meta.stackoverflow.com/questions/164930/go-stackexchange-com StackExchange is a very nice question + answer platform. Originally for computer programmers to ask their questions it has been extended to different kinds subjects: Lego, chess, poker...
Apparently , the Go site was proposed two years ago and closed http://area51.stackexchange.com/proposals/11942/game-of-go Did you guys know about this? We can still propose a variant of it.
My main objection is that Go notation is unique and would require special plugin to enter go positions. Actually... they solved it here http://code.google.com/p/bamboojoint/
OpenTimes Hackathon
I've passed by the New York Times building many times. Now I am writing from the inside! "Hacking" with API's has become less about ingenuity and more about practicality. It is also not hacking b/c that requires finding clever
Programmable Web is a whole blog devoted to using API's.
The API Request Tool lets you
There is a look on people's faces, exibiting a tension between the hackers and the journalists. Especially at the New York Times, it must have taken time for veteran journalists to accept that not only are computers the "wave of the future" but that now "data" is the wave of the future. We don't have to rely on hunches of experts, or even prediction markets and computers are measuring our every action.
I thought the food would be better. The breakfast was these wonderful muffins. Then I had 3 slices of pizza for lunch. Already regretting it... I should just go outside and grab some jerky.
The CartoDB presentation was really great. Some of the program-mentors were excited about me combining geospacial data from New York Times Semantic API and Articles API with the CartoDB graphic's engine.
I learned at the New York Times presentation they have been tagging for the past 160 years. DBPedia is a web site collecting metadata on Wikipedia itself.
From the Visual.ly blog 10 things you can learn from NYT Data Visualizations
clarity for context and purpose
respect for the reader
editorial rigor and integration
clarity of questions
data research and preparation
visual restraint
layout and placement
diversity of techniques

I have dug up the General Assembly Ruby on Rails course on Github.

"Bronx culture" seems like a contradiction in terms... here it is: fella's name is Sen2. Modulo his butt hanging out of his jeans he's a good artist.
From the readme:
This is a script I created in response to the University of Chicago admissions essay question, "So where is Waldo, really?" I have published a version of the accompanyingcounselor-friendly essay, though I will not distribute Handford's entire drawings publicly.
It was inspired bya StackOverflow responsethat implemented rudimentary Waldo detection in Mathematica. This solution follows a more versatile algorithm in Python, supported by NumPy, SciPy, Scikits-Image, and the Python Imaging Library.
If you'd like to run the code yourself, it works on Python 2.7.3 with the latest versions of the four aforementioned libraries. You may need to boost the contrast of the images you're working with so that red-white borders are clear, and replace my reference values and color distance thresholds for red, white, and black (in the L*ab colorspace) with your own. Input images must be in RGBA colorspace, and my pixel counts are only tested to work with images where a single page is 1285x666.
It's really cool he mad an app, just for his college Essay. I wonder if he'll get into U Chicago.
