Sanjeev Singh

Interesting visualization of live blog data. - Sanjeev Singh

One of the coolest visualizations I've ever seen... Fun to play with the feeling filters too. - Ross Miller

creative indeed.. Sep Kamavar and Johnathan Harris did a few like these... more can be found here http://www.number27.org/ - Krishna Gade

A full charge only costs $4 and takes you almost 100 miles. - Sanjeev Singh

They should give it regenerative breaking so that you can find a good thermal or something and use that to recharge the battery in-flight. - Paul Buchheit

How to use permaculture to reclaim barren land. - Sanjeev Singh

These videos always make me want to start a farm. I think FF needs to branch out into high quality food production. - Paul Buchheit

yeah we don't even need to change our name. - Sanjeev Singh

lol @ Paul and Sanjeev. I knew all along there was more to this whole Friendfeed thing! - Meryn Stol

amazingly scary for 1 minute of footage. - Sanjeev Singh

it kind of looks like a little troll: http://www.boreme.com/media... - bob

gollum wasn't strictly a troll. He was originally hobbit-like, I think. If I was those guys, I would have run too! - Sanjeev Singh

this one looks even more similar: http://img-fan.theonering.net/rolozo... - bob

A quick watch (only 3 minutes). - Sanjeev Singh

Are his diet recommendations roughly the same as ETL/China-Study? - Paul Buchheit

I don't know (wish he had a longer talk slot!) - Sanjeev Singh

the progression of obesity by state over time was pretty interesting - bob

Do Friendfeeders get special areas to work on? Or do you all work on everything? - Mark Trapp

Notice Sanjeev has "Whipping Boy at FriendFeed.com" on his LinkedIn profile - hilarious!! - Susan Beebe

"It would have been the first new drug for prostate cancer in 20 years, and an outside panel of cancer experts chosen by the FDA recommended approval, but the agency asked for another clinical trial.". First new drug for prostate cancer in 20 years? That's not a lot of progress :(. - Sanjeev Singh

"the death rate from cancer has dropped only about 7% in the past three decades" (or so the article claims) - Sanjeev Singh

Many handy features most people don't know about. - Sanjeev Singh

I tried http://downforeveryoneorjustme.com/istwitt... but it gave me an error too - Bwana ☠

On a related note: http://isfriendfeeddown.com - Philipp Lenssen

as opposed to, say, trying it in the url bar.... - j1m

For j1m: Safari can’t open the page “http://sudo%20dscacheutil%20-flushcache/” because it can’t find the server “sudo%20dscacheutil%20-flushcache” - Louis Gray

Louis, if you type that in the terminal and then try google in the browser it should work. Just copy and paste "sudo dscacheutil -flushcache" without the quotation marks - DC Crowley

I know. I just wanted to do what j1m said not to do. - Louis Gray

I was surprised that Africa only accounts for ~25% of the dirt poor. India's share is bigger, but they get a lot less press. Same deal with the poorer Asian countries. - Sanjeev Singh

Some people say that the first $10,000 of absolute wealth brings much happiness, but after that money isn't worth so much... When my mom grew up, she only ate chicken once a year on your birthday (and her family was considered a wealthy Taiwanese family). The US relative/absolute wealth debate is mostly a middle & upper-class problem. I just read a journalist's article from visiting rural China, where he made a girl unbelievably happy by buying ONE stuffed doll. She'd never had one before... - Mitchell Tsai

The US doesn't have as big a share of world GDP today as Western Europe in the early 1900s, or China in the early 1800s. - Sanjeev Singh

Vertica is one of the most interesting "scalable DB" companies. Architecturally they are like bigtable with transactions. Still very expensive, though. $500/mo. for a 500GB database running on a single machine. - Sanjeev Singh

Need to bring back http://friendfeed.com/... - Benjamin Golub

They make metallic glasses that are stronger than conventional titanium alloys. Your cell phone might have liquidmetal components. - Sanjeev Singh

What happened? - Ionut

Server troubles. We're still investigating exactly what triggered it. - Paul Buchheit

i had a problem this morning where ff was taking ages to load the "Comment - Hide - More" panel but it seems to have gone now - Ian Rathbone

sixk - Raj Paj

I always blamed bzip/gzip for being spastic on multicore machines -- should have blamed myself for not searching for a better alternative! - Sanjeev Singh

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki... claims they are no longer in production. Has anyone seen one of these in action? - Sanjeev Singh

April, yeah, we bought the same model after we saw yours :). Those ovens are small fry compared to the flashbake, though. - Sanjeev Singh

"humans + livestock + pets now account for 98% of all land + air vertebrate mass on earth. 10000 years ago that was less than a tenth of a percent" - Sanjeev Singh

@Sanjeev: “we win!” - Amit Patel

there is a lot of plant mass though, and even more bacterial mass - there is more left to be conquered :P - bob

"What you really want to understand is one consumer in terms of mind, body, soul and task. Map a holistic experience and spend 12 hours with one consumer spent over a one-month period [instead of] running 50 focus groups where you have eight minutes with an individual consumer and do the "Groundhog Day" event over and over again. So what we have done is we have created, for example, a studio process and we have learned that we can get as much information from five consumers, mapped in depth, mind, body, soul and task, as you can from 50 focus groups." - Sanjeev Singh

Wow, that's a good photo of Elliot. - Sanjeev Singh

Officially open midnight to 10am. How cool is that? Does anyone know if the merchants let you buy small quantities? - Sanjeev Singh

27% on average, over 1,130 exits. They don't mention if some angel groups persistently outperform others, though. - Sanjeev Singh

Yeah, I was thinking "huh, must be a lot of small fry we never hear about" - ⓞnor

Those swivelling hooks look vicious! - Sanjeev Singh

thats some scary stuff! - Ian Rathbone

Most of the Bay Area has >10% chance of experiencing a quake resulting in 0.5g of horizontal acceleration in the next 50 years. - Sanjeev Singh

Cool map. The area on the Mississippi River is interesting. - Mike Reynolds

"I find myself thinking of a checklist Wozniak wrote a few years ago describing how to become a genius. His advice was straightforward yet strangely terrible: You must clarify your goals, gain knowledge through spaced repetition, preserve health, work steadily, minimize stress, refuse interruption, and never resist sleep when tired. This should lead to radically improved intelligence and creativity. The only cost: turning your back on every convention of social life." - Sanjeev Singh

wow, this article is fascinating (and the tips in the sidebar are helpful too: For optimal brain gain, regular tea breaks, as favored in the UK, are more effective than a 20-ounce French roast sucked down at Starbucks in lieu of breakfast.) - Adam Kazwell

"Wozniak gives close attention to the qualitative estimate of fatal risks. By graphing the acquisition of knowledge in SuperMemo, he has realized that in a single lifetime one can acquire only a few million new items. This is the absolute limit on intellectual achievement defined by death." - pretty limiting - the AIs will win :P - bob

cool - accexine

How to make rocket fuel with sugar, fertilizer and a coffee grinder. - Sanjeev Singh
