I was going to revise my paper right now, or study for EECS, but I am eagerly awaiting the end of this academic semester and I need some awesome. Thus, linkspam.
This is one of many reasons a certain retired-UM linguistics professor is one of the coolest people ever. (See his website for even more varied awesome.)
Gorgeous pictures of food, With Recipes. Thanks to my friend Nico.
I don't know if these are the six most badass stunts ever pulled in the name of science, but they're pretty nifty.
Awesome, awesome photos of Eyjafjallajökull and ash and lightening.
Relatedly, Wondering how to pronounce that? I love languagelog.
Also. CIRCULAR polarization! Physics is cool.
Taking Choose Your Own Adventure to the next level, as it were.
This made me smile. I want to see the stars anywhere.
This site does MATH on ALL STUFF. It's one of those eat!hours places. (Thanks, Rocky.)
All my joy... This is about "Greensleeves." !
Light: it has been tied in knots. The world is pretty awesome in a lot of different ways, you know?
I think I've posted this before, but I enjoy it, especially:
It’s one thing to go outside on a crisp, clear night and marvel at a sky full of stars. It’s another to marvel not only at the spectacle but to recognize that those stars are the result of exceedingly ordered conditions 13.7 billion years ago at the moment of the Big Bang. It’s another still to understand how those stars act as nuclear furnaces that supply the universe with carbon, oxygen and nitrogen, the raw material of life as we know it.
A blog about food in Asia - imperfect; but definitely pretty interesting pictures.
Gregorians: we need to do this. *cough* for Partycakes
Software Projects as Rock Climbing. And slowly, I learn about this stuff... sometimes I think the most interesting part, besides the manipulating language and machines creatively to make things happen - is how people work together doing it. Maybe more so, even.
I have a lot of thoughts on beginning to learn about programming - and I"m not heavily endorsing this link or the metaphor to which it leads. But it is interesting, I think.
Christopher Manning's LaTex Page - mostly, this is for people who probably won't see this; I found this while wandering the internet during compling, and I immediately thought of a couple people. Interesting, though.
Awesome discoveries in paleontology: like this one, wherein there is a tiny armored mammal.
About the 2010 Burmese elections.
From Time, Being Gay in Uganda: One Couple's Story.
To be gay in Uganda is to be hopeful, always, that things will get better.
And finally (for the moment), camouflaging an airplane factory.
Okay.
