Really cool. A couple of things I'd like to see would be: - Change the window title to something other than 'Dashboard', and add a favicon. - Give me a way to get my data out. Dropbox syncing would be great - a folder…
> A 95% success rate means 1 in 20 failure I'm not sure my success rate is any better than that typing on my iPhone.
People often overeat when they start exercising, either because they're hungry from the exercise, or because they feel can indulge a bit as a reward. My view is that most people should ignore exercise and fix their diet…
I made a little applescript application so I can open the system colour picker with spotlight. That way I can use the palette at the bottom to save a the colours, and the developer picker extension to copy the code. To…
You can calibrate them (by measuring your stride length) to be fairly accurate for walking. After a 5k run mine is usually out by about 10-20% compared to GPS, but I put that down to my running stride being longer.

If you can do it from a terminal you should be able to add a build command and run the script with cmd+B. This site has a pretty good run down of how they work:…
For a server in New Zealand I assume it would be covered by our three strikes law (http://3strikes.net.nz). Rights holders can send infringement notices via the users ISP for a $25 fee. After three notices (from the…
I do something similar now and then with a script that takes a photo and a screen grab every minute throughout the day. The resulting 1-2 min movies can be quite fascinating to watch (for me at least).
It's great that they are trying something different from iOS and Android, but I can't help thinking that most of the icons on those home screens look very similar. They seem to be mostly either a white icon on a plain…
Isn't that what 'Secure Empty Trash...' does? (In the Finder menu)
I'm sure the price will drop if they catch on but, assuming it's basically a hacked jet-ski with a hose & harness attached to it, they still won't be cheap. A jet ski can set you back anywhere from $10k - $50k…

Funny to see this on HN after seeing something very similar at a Ramstein concert on Friday night. The singer has a cheek piercing which he feeds a wire through to light up his mouth. Good photo here:…

Especially moderation.
Yes, these would make a good gift. I find the key shape does makes it hard to get into some USB ports though as it gets wider at one end.
The site is actually quite clean with ad-block installed. I had to go back and double check to see what you were talking about! http://imgur.com/jDtjS.png
I'm using Shellfish for Safari which does a nice job of hiding these widgets. Unfortunately it doesn't block them completely so they're still in the background slowing down page loads even if you can't see them.…
There was an interesting opinion piece in New Scientist about radiation safety levels recently (31 July 2010). It looked at health studies from Hiroshima and Nagasaki and studies of chemotherapy patients that suggest…
