  Paris in Diorama

  Posted: May 17th, 2011, 5:00pm MYT by Robert Love

  A week in Paris in the Spring. Pour être jeune et dans l'amour. I made some dioramas:

  
  Passerelle Debilly, Paris, France

  
  Palais de Chaillot, Paris, France

  
  Champ de Mars and École Militaire, Paris, France

  See also my dioramas from around Spain.

  Kindle 3 Kernel

  Posted: October 1st, 2010, 8:00pm MYT by Robert Love

  I really dig the Kindle 3. The small improvements add up to a significant improvement in usability. As my friend Chris put it, "as soon as I turned it on I realized I did the right thing."

  For the curious, I got ahold of the Kindle 3's source code and generated a patch against 2.6.26 (I did the same for the Kindle 1's kernel).

  The patch is big and noisy, but here's what stands out: Ingo's RT kernel, which converts most spinlocks to priority-inheriting mutexes, removing most regions of non-preemption in the kernel; ARM architecture updates; driver for the Atheros AR6002 802.11a/b/g device; driver for the Freescale MC13783 voltage regulator; driver for E Ink; driver for the Asahi-Kasei AK4647 audio device; lots more.

  From the source, the Kindle is still code named Fiona internally.

  Anyone spot anything neat I am missing?

  Google Instant, which we announced yesterday, is at its best after you have used it for a bit, and allowed the interactive experience to refine and improve how you search.

  But, for me, the simplest sell is searching for the weather. Last week, you might have searched for weather 02116 (and a decade ago, you'd have watched the evening news). Today, you hit w:
