Id badge acquired. Tour taken. Time to write an article or two.
@mkramer If there’s going to be a feed to follow your NatGeo work, post it somewhere.
- Glenn Fleishman:
Email has a first means of contact has already gone into the dustbin as some avoid publishing any public address. http://econ.st/165ZQN6
@GlennF Hmm. Makes me wonder if there’s a market for turnkey [many] at [http://yourname.com ] service, since most geeks do that already.
- Chris Gonzales:
@Moltz @GlennF @lexfri I can?t fault Glenn for that, he?s got a *whole pre-Twitter lifetime* to make up for.
- Moltz:
@Gromble @GlennF @lexfri You?re saying Lex was grown in a vat? Interesting. Would explain why he?s only seen five movies.
@GlennF @Moltz @Gromble @lexfri I thought Lex Friedman didn’t echo. Is there a Snopes for this?
- Glenn Fleishman:
If you think *I* exhaust you, you should look at all the things that @lexfri does. He makes me look lazy.
- Glenn Fleishman:
@Moltz @lexfri I have this curiosity that if I tweeted 60% less if I?d have 3x the followers or 1/3rd.
@GlennF @Moltz @lexfri I suppose you could test this by limiting yourself to 98 characters.

The entire work wardrobe for someone who hates clothes: 4 shirts, 6 pairs of pants, 8 dresses, 2 pairs? http://instagram.com/p/ZOwTrEAbXI/
@mkramer seems to me a NatGeo wardrobe should just be a couple of skins. #ButNotARealGreenDressThatsCruel

So far I have found a board game bar and 87 pho places. This city is ok
@mkramer Board game bar is news to me. Which?
- Melody Joy Kramer:
@jeffporten dunno the name. It’s near dupont
@mkramer I’d appreciate an address; I sometimes work near Dupont.
- Melody Joy Kramer:
@jeffporten I don’t know where I was.
@mkramer LOL. Okay. Just make a note to buzz me next time you wander by. Sounds to me it’s probably a Gaiman door to Neverwhere, DC.
- Lex Friedman:
@settern NOT: Maps, any weather app.
- Serenity Caldwell:
@lexfri Anything using iPhone GPS will by default have issues. But the app does pretty well for itself. If only it had sync + more data.
- Lex Friedman:
@settern oh, I just meant as an intellectual exercise: What?s the most accurate in the App Store?
- Jason Snell:
@lexfri @settern I?ve been impressed with the accuracy of Couch To 5K. But couldn?t any app that uses full-on GPS say the same?
@lexfri @jsnell @settern I think the Lytro proves that a 2D image isn’t reality. Beyond that, we get into Allegory of the Cave stuff.
- Lex Friedman:
@jeffporten @jsnell @settern figured it out: No app better reflects the harsh realities of life than the one for my bank accounts.
@lexfri @jsnell @settern so I guess I’m saying the most accurate app is Calculator… except that it has to be binary, not base 10.
@lexfri @jsnell @settern Yes, but WHICH banking app?
- Serenity Caldwell:
@lexfri @jeffporten @jsnell Sad face.My most accurate: Clock.
- Glenn Fleishman:
@settern @lexfri @jeffporten @jsnell Tiny Wings.
- David J. Loehr:
@GlennF @settern @lexfri @jeffporten @jsnell The Magazine.

So, if the human skull has a resonate frequency of ~160Hz, does that mean listening to that particular frequency will be painful?
@cookingforgeeks it’s not painful, but looking at a CRT while your head is vibrating is VERY weird. #ThingsAccidentallyLearnedInCollege
Not sure what kind of popcorn the guy next to me is eating, but my guess is on “rancid yak butter”.
Google Now amusing fact: it’s decided I work at the Starbucks on Penn campus and automatically shows me traffic maps to there.

Ooops. Doctor Who season finale ships early to thousands of Blu-Ray purchasers.
@jsnell That damned TARDIS targeting circuit strikes again.
- Andrew Laurence:
@angrymacbastard where is y’all’s content hosted? AMB episodes are the slowest downloading of all my subs.
@atlauren @angrymacbastard That’s not a bandwidth issue. That’s because if subject AMB to compression, they’ll go off like a fucking H-bomb.
- Andrew Laurence:
@jeffporten @angrymacbastard safety first!
- Angry Mac Bastards:
@atlauren @jeffporten Amazon S3 actually.
@mkramer Note: “networking” and “socializing” nearly synonymous in DC. Cultural thing.

Bacon affects the brain the same way as cocaine, overloading pleasure centers in the brain and requiring increasing amounts to be satisfied.

So Marvel built their entire online comic service on Flash. What a scalable, long-term strategy.
@jcenters But… Flash is DC. Shouldn’t they have built it on Quicksilver?
