TTMMHTM:Macs, IE6, hacker spaces, pixar vs. dreamworks and travel nightmares

Things that made me happy this morning:

Let’s start with filthy anti-propagandaa cool comic about macs:

• IE6 gets more bashings with code to crash ie
  and a lovely IE6 voodoo doll. I don’t approve of using the crash code, but it shows how messed up the rendering engine really is!
• In the future we will get our energy from hamster wheels – I knew it!
• Some stunning earth hour photos – large cities cutting down on energy for an hour, click the photos to see the transition
• There’s now a wiki on hacker spaces – co location offices for working on personal products
• Coding horror has a good article on how we can advocate for English documentation of code without being ugly american coders – I agree, I am sure my career is partly based on me not waiting for translated docs and using the English ones – sometimes with a dictionary by my side
• Someone discovered an unofficial Yahoo stocks API an “documented” it.
• A very truthful comparison of Pixar vs. Dreamworks
• Being a very busy traveller and hating pointless airport security measurements The Onion’s report on Prague’s Franz Kafka airport tickled me pink
• Wrong Tomorrow allows us to track which predictions turned out to be hokum.
• I know that a lot of people love bacon, but you can take it too far. Serioulsy, Bacon Lube ?
