About a year ago, I did a project for de-duping customer entered contact info. We had less than 100k records for any particular region (Bay Area, New York, etc.) From what I recall, we were able to confirm identity in…
I have had a car here in SF for the last few years, and only use it to go shopping, or get out of town. Last month I picked up a little motorbike - it is super convenient in the city. Parking everywhere, and for the…

What about all the people who shoot in jpeg instead of RAW? Also the camera manufacturers who don't enable RAW on their cameras, they are stealing our data! Revolt!</sarcasm> I was a professional photographer…
Interesting perspective, customization and optimization is fun. On that note there are a few UI customization programs that I find useful on OSX: nocturne - invert or dim the screen, helps your eyes stay relaxed in…
