Grok Robots At Grok Robots I'll be focusing on the non-tech aspects of robots - robots in pop culture, the news, the arts, etc. For example, you won't learn how to build R2-D2 - but if you would like to learn how to draw R2-D2 with instructions from the Lucas folks, come on over. I launched today to coincide with the 25th anniversary of Mr. Roboto.

Of Puzzle Pirates, Java and Mac OS X

I recently installed Puzzle Pirates on a brand new iMac running OS X 10.4.9 (Tiger). I'm having some odd behavior which is making most of the game unplayable. I don't expect anyone here to debug the program (I won't complain if you do), but rather I am looking for other ideas for troubleshooting strategies. Details and screencast inside.

What's this public art in NYC?

What's this public art/sculpture in NYC? It is plastic and shiny and is located just outside Central Park, across the street from the Apple store on 5th (or it least it was on Dec 31st when I took the picture).

Defending Yourself From Smart Objects

If indeed information technology is seeping out of cyberspace at a rate that will soon immerse us in a world of smart furniture and spime wranglers, I think we have bigger things to worry about than disambiguating the terminology (user experience and opting out come to mind). MeFi's own Adam Greenfield weighs in with his first book, Everyware.
