Without much conscious thought, most of us have built identities across the web. We've filled in profiles, uploaded photos, videos, reviews and bookmarks. The Ident Engine uses semantic web API’s to bring together these web footprints.
Demos
Identity Discovery

Uses Google's Social Graph API with data from profiles to build the list of identities.
Profile Discovery

Creates a collection of profiles from across the web using identity search
Combined Profile

Combines the profile collection together to find the most complete description of an individual
Lifestream

Builds a lifestream by combining identity search with calls to API endpoints.
Photo Picker

Presents all the profile photo's of an individual to create a simple photo picker UI.

Hello Health is the innovative new primary care practice platform that helps doctors communicate, document, and transact with their patients in person and online. A Hello Health practice cuts in half the overhead found in a traditional doctor’s practice simply because the platform streamlines processes and eliminates the need for receptionists, administration and nursing staff.

Fotopedia is breathing new life into photos by building a photo encyclopedia that lets photographers and photo enthusiasts collaborate and enrich images to be useful for the whole world wide web.
Fotopedia and its community are building:

* an encyclopedia for humanity;
* the largest photo distribution network, which will provide an effective avenue for photographers to promote and monetize their premium content;
* a consumer-friendly interface that makes it easy for anyone to create a page about subjects that matter to them – from butterflies to the Taj Mahal.

Chicago Boss is fully asynchronous, using one single process to handle hundreds or thousands of simultaneous requests, and thus it solves the classic c10k problem. All other web frameworks will break down and cry if you ask them to process more than a few dozen simultaneous requests on a single machine. Chicago Boss is built with Erlang, the same platform used by banks and telecoms to achieve unprecendented scalability and (no exaggeration) 99.9999999% reliability.

The old story: "Qwerty keyboards exist to slow down typists, but took hold and that's why we have these inferior keyboards. If markets worked, we'd all be on Dvorak keyboards."
Reason argues that Dvorak cooked the books on his studies, that qwerty keyboards survived brisk competition from many other layouts, and that very high speeds were possible during this time.
Careful refutation of a solidly established story.

# good lord they support a lot of syntax highlighting.

An intimidatingly long megapost on timebanking and similar alternative currency schemes.

Includes step by step python code, etc. Very thorough and excellent.

It's just one level, but the rule change, the controls change, the goals change, everything about it changes. But really, this is the only level

A review of 2 meta games.
The review is a lot of explaining the joke, not much thinking about the joke or taking it somewhere.

"Who needs gameplay when you have ACHIEVEMENTS? Don't worry about beating levels, finding ways to kill enemies, or beating the final boss… there are none. Focus solely on your ultimate destiny… doing random tasks that have nothing to do with anything. Metagame yourself with ease! Self-satisfaction never felt so… artificial!"
A brilliant critique of achievement systems in games, delivered as a game. I remember being disturbed and incented by these in Burnout: revenge.

So I wanted a custom spice rack, one that would really help my restaurant, but I didn't want to build it myself. I'm no carpenter. I hired one though.
"Can you build me a spice rack? Here's what I need – "
"Just a sec," he interrupted. "I'm going to start building some hammers while you talk."
"Don't you already have some hammers?"
"Sure, but those were for past projects. There's better ways to build hammers these days."
"Here – I have a hammer already. It got left behind by the guy who hung the pictures in the restaurant. Use this."
"SIR! I don't think that using a framing hammer is going to help us develop this spicerack. Please!"

DIYbio is an organization that aims to help make biology a worthwhile pursuit for citizen scientists, amateur biologists, and DIY biological engineers who value openness and safety. This will require mechanisms for amateurs to increase their knowledge and skills, access to a community of experts, the development of a code of ethics, responsible oversight, and leadership on issues that are unique to doing biology outside of traditional professional settings.

Patterns for the Color Blind

About 8% of the male population has some sort of color blindness. The color blind have the inability to clearly distinguish different colors of the spectrum, they tend to see colors in a limited range of hues. Because of this, the color blind have trouble with a lot of websites.

Users hate change, so it's usually best to stay with a familiar design and evolve it gradually. In the long run, however, incrementalism eventually destroys cohesiveness, calling for a new UI architecture.

The stupidest thing I have read in a long time. The most self refuting thing I have read.
