I never knew

The following flight pattern visualizations are the result of experiments leading to the project Celestial Mechanics by Scott Hessels and Gabriel Dunne. FAA data was parsed and plotted using the Processing programming environment.—Air traffic as seen by the FAA

I don’t know the exact demographics for VW Rabbits are but I’m guessing this wardriving commercial is right on the money to get their attention.

If you’ve got a Powerbook or iBook, don’t forget to check the latest battery recall, mine is on it and I ordered the replacement in 30secs with the little form at right. Really sucks though that I had it replaced 4-5 months ago because it had lost capacity and it needs replacement again!

Great post on 37 Signals (something they don’t do as often as they used to, imho), Define your own success. It starts with a quote from John Battelle who thinks there aren’t enough failures, some kind of imbalance.

Fried (and I) agrees that failures are necessary but that failure or rather success should be defined for each person/company. That’s something that I’ve been surprised at again and again in recent years, people who keep pushing to grow, hire more, sell more, produce more, taking on jobs they’re not interested in just to keep growing and paying the growing bills. Why? Why is being a seven person company in one year necessarily better than being four?

Not only should analysts remember that success and failure are relative, entrepreneurs (and freelancers) should remember to set their own success level, not just following preconceived steps to it.

IE 7.0 is coming and they’ve fixed a lot of the crap that plagues my day when doing CSS, although with experience you go around most of them pretty easily, there are still some that have you hitting you’re head on the walls. A few “favorites” that are supposed to be fixed:

• Enable :hover on all elements not just on

































• Min/max width/height support

































• Selectors: first-child, adjacent, attribute, child

































• Addressed many relative positioning issues

































• % calculations for height/width for abs positioned elements

































• 1 px dotted borders no longer render as dashed (why the fuck that wasn’t the case before, I’ll never understand)

• The IE Three Pixel Text-Jog
