Dear visitors from Google. This site is not Facebook.

A ReadWriteWeb aritcle on Facebook’s changes was swarmed with commenters confused that the top Google search result for “Facebook Login” pointed to this article. Many believed the site was actually a redesigned Facebook home page.

Hat tip to Daring Fireball.

Supporting all browsers is the whole fucking point of being a good web developer, and I’m going to force you to do it even if I have to personally swear at each of you individually.

Jorge Cham’s webcomic sums up modern news polls pretty well.

[W]omen in general … aren’t just bad at behaving like arrogant self-aggrandizing jerks. They are bad at behaving like self-promoting narcissists, anti-social obsessives, or pompous blowhards, even a little bit, even temporarily, even when it would be in their best interests to do so. Whatever bad things you can say about those behaviors, you can’t say they are underrepresented among people who have changed the world.

From Clay Shirky’s rant about women, via Rupa’s Facebook feed. Posted only because I find it funny and insightful, and I’m curious what my female friends think about it. I know I’ve tried on a few of those behaviors myself.

Eat it. It is delicate, morbid, loveable, and you will die depressed, delirious, and overweight.

I tell people that if it’s in the news, don’t worry about it. The very definition of “news” is “something that hardly ever happens.” It’s when something isn’t in the news, when it’s so common that it’s no longer news — car crashes, domestic violence — that you should start worrying.
