WIRED UK: Column 11

In which I talk about information and crapping:



Some guy from my ISP phoned me earlier — thereby buggering the afternoon's work, and therein lies a link — to ask nicely if they could upgrade my broadband and take over my landline telephone provision for a small increase in my monthly fee.

An Underground Master Plan

Wonderful language in a news story about land use and a new waterfront city in Singapore:



The committee said there is also a need for an underground master plan.


It said the government should catalyse the development of underground space over the next decade.


The committee also emphasized a need to develop subterranean land rights, a valuation framework and to establish a national geology office.



(Thanks, Fritz)

T-shirt Of The Week #011: SCIENCE GANGSTER

TOTW is basically a joke that Ariana and I pull each week in our joint guise as the International Electrophonic Unit. Basically, we take some of the stupider things I've said on Twitter and elsewhere, often in a state of extreme alcoholic refreshment or severe sleep deprivation, and put them on a t-shirt. Ariana set up a Cafe Press store (because this is a joke and engaging with a serious maker of t-shirts would be less funny to us), and… well, once a week, here we are.

Twitter: A Shitbox For Your Brain

For a while, I had a capture of my twitter feed running here. It ended up doing something weird to my API calls, stopping me from running my desktop client, so I killed it. Which is probably just as well, as I talk a lot of shit on Twitter. It's basically mental slurry, the wet lumpy bits from a day spent at the keyboard vented off into a trap so the buildup doesn't blow some crucial valve in my head. Look at these, from the last six weeks or so:
