Snap

I seem to have missed this when it came out.

Sony is basing its Snap framework on GNUstep and Objective C. Interesting.

Are they thinking that some of these people writing iPhone applications will expand into widgets for Blu-Ray players and TVs?

Dumb

This is probably another good time to remind you all that all of us were carrying actual assault rifles, and some of us were also carrying pistols.

So we’re in line, going through one at a time. One of our Soldiers had his Gerber multi-tool. TSA confiscated it. Kind of ridiculous, but it gets better. A few minutes later, a guy empties his pockets and has a pair of nail clippers. Nail clippers. TSA informs the Soldier that they’re going to confiscate his nail clippers.
