New Things

When I was young I wanted to be a rock star. Once I wrote in one of my little writing books that someday I’d work with Prince, just him and me, in the recording studio. I never did become a rock star. I did work with Prince, exactly as I predicted. But you’ll recall the [...]

The House Where The Pain Isn’t

You are laying face down in the mud. The only thought in your head is “I want to die. I want to die.” repeating over and over. If you dig any deeper you only find thoughts that are worse, of guilt, embarrassment, shame, weakness. The only thing that saves you is the litany in your [...]

As you can plainly see, I haven’t been blogging much lately. I still enjoy long(er) form writing and I intend to keep writing on this blog. I’m sure it will continue to emb and flow a bit. My RSS feed is still screwed up, so most people aren’t paying attention anyway! One of these days [...]

Teachers who made a difference

It’s National Teacher Appreciation Day. I thought I’d take a moment to remember some great teachers in my life. Mr. Deseth (Roosevelt Elementary) He was cool. He was also firm but fair. Mr. Moen (Kelly Elementary) He was funny but took his job seriously and expected you to, too. Mr. Martin (Schroeder Jr. High School) [...]

Cooperation over competition

In another thread I am having a conversation with “carter”, who seems to be a smart and thoughtful person, and a fellow rocketeer, by the look of it. The following is a response to one of his comments that I felt deserved the spotlight of its own post, especially considering how rare I blog these [...]

Swiss Tournament Formula

For a Swiss tournament with n players in r rounds, you can calculate how many players will lose l number of games with the following formula: For example, you have 56 players playing in a 4-round tournament. You want to know how many people will lose 2 games. So n=56, r=4 and l=2. In this [...]

War

I recently read Sebastien Junger’s book War. It was captivating because of the real life-or-death action and thought-provoking because of the deeper central idea. If you think about it, for the last 100,000 years, anatomically modern human beings have been struggling for survival. Many times, what was trying to kill them was other human beings. [...]

Rosetta Stone #fail

I’m mad at Rosetta Stone right now and I think it is a lesson in how NOT to run a company. Here is the crux of it: Rosetta Stone is more concerned about preventing software piracy than they are about existing customer satisfaction. These things always come from the top down. Some big important MBA [...]

don’t talk about sex

There is a weird disconnect going on. I love weird disconnects because they are saying something. I don’t know what this one is saying. We all like sex. Our culture is permeated with sex. And yet we never talk about sex in a real way. We joke about it and we might share a few [...]

Reflections on Paris

First of all, obviously, I’m no expert on Paris. I’ve been here a couple of days. But here, nonetheless, are my observations. Our hotel room is ridiculously small. We could have spent more money, of course, but it came recommended to us and it’s not exactly cheap. I think they are all like this. We [...]

On Happiness

In particular, he talks about how married people are happier than unmarried people and that men in particular are much happier [...]

The curse of being attractive

This has come up before. Some bloggers are beautiful women. Some dudes comment that the woman is beautiful. All hell breaks loose in a flurry of accusations of sexism and misogyny. I see both sides of this. There are huge double-standards when it comes to how men and women are treated. Women are objectified and [...]

Bah AND Humbug

I’m finding the Holiday season quite annoying this year. I have very fond memories of Christmas when I was a kid and I do enjoy seeing how much Myles enjoys the holidays. He sings Christmas carols and watches the holiday specials and loves the Christmas lights. The bah humbug, for me, comes from the fact [...]

Photographers suck

(OK, sorry for the inflammatory title — just trying to get your attention!) I think the financial model that most photographers adopt is ridiculous. The problem is, they don’t charge for what I do value and they charge a lot for what I don’t value. I have 2 examples to illustrate this. We went to [...]

iPhone rocket in 3D

A further update from my previous post on my iPhone rocket launch. This is kind of a cool plot using only the GPS data: Here is a plot of the first few seconds of the launch from the accelerometer: You can see that the data peaks at 3g when I was expecting 12g. The acceleration [...]

It’s taken me awhile to understand the data I got from the first launch. Using the video, the GPS data, the accelerometer data and my own recollections, I’ve put together a rough timeline of events. I’ve notated it on the plot of the altitude. A couple of weird things happened. First of all, with the [...]

Prelude: iPhone rocket

So…I’m sort of an obsessive person at times. I had two simultaneous obsessions going, iPhone development and model rocketry. I’ve posted a little bit about both of these. One late night I had an inspiration — I should launch an iPhone in a model rocket! The reasons were obvious: the iPhone has a 3D accelerometer [...]

Contrary to most people, perhaps, I think it is the mundane nature of most twitter updates that makes it cool.

Happiness is a process. I used to say that happiness only occurs in retrospect. That’s probably true for a lot of people. It doesn’t have to be, though. A lot of the whole “be here now” concept is just a matter of realizing how wonderful your life is, with all its warts and struggles. You’re [...]

I realize that MNDot and DOT’s around the country are damned if they do and damned if they don’t. We hate road construction but we also hate under-maintained or under-capacity roads.

Over at scienceblogs there is a recurring argument debate about “framing”. My definition of framing is wording an argument in a manner that your audience is going to be most receptive to.
