This idea is pretty dumb. RSS serves up everything we need for now. We just need to script a few other functions and we've got everything we need, without carting around a big Offline Web. 2006-04-09T19:04:35ZUntitled entry permalink

I'm just listening to Alex Barnett's OPML Podcast. Very cool. We need a sort of collaborative RSS feed for OPML podcasted discussion. 2006-04-09T17:37:02ZUntitled entry permalink

Katie Couric recently repeated the down-and-out lie that there are no atheists in foxholes. Perhaps she could tell that face-to-face with the Military Association of Atheists and Freethinkers.

Tiktaalik: the creationist response 2006-04-08T23:00:32ZTitled entry permalink

Before this Tiktaalik thing, you believed it on faith!

We need to see more transitional fossils!

God put it here to confuse us!

The Bible says differently!

These so-called scientists are blinded by their materialist ideological orthodoxy!

I'm the Isaac Newton of information theory, goddamnit, listen to me!

I am a , an , like to code in and noodle about with and the . I also have a BA in philosophy from London, and am studying for an MA. My philosophical interests are in Victorian-era German philosophy, Kierkegaard, Robert Nozick, hermeneutics and current approaches to the demarcation problem in the philosophy of science. Musically, I like jazz fusion, soul and P-Funk. My musical nirvana would be a mixture of Beethoven, Miles Davis and George Clinton topped with a side-serving of Erykah, Jill and Angie.

I also write for the Citizendium, an online encyclopedia project. If you know about stuff, you should join in.
