The day monkey outraces a nitro fuelled engine

Anyone who is following the long benchmark javascript race between browser engines probably has noticed that for a first time since these particular records began mozilla's engine has crossed the daily finish line faster than one of the competition. Today Jaeger + Trace monkey cross breed is 1ms faster on the v8bench circuit.

Arms? Million Faces? DSEi? What's that got in common?

Amnesty, IANSA and Oxfam have launched a global campaign aiming to stop gun running and control the arms trade - and they need your support now. Simply register your support. Some causes are worth it, and I reckon this is one of them. Regardless whether you think you can make a difference , it costs you nothing to try.

I've already signed up and you can see my ugly mugshot in the Million Faces petition.

Armed violence wrecks lives by fuelling conflict, poverty, and human rights abuses. The campaign is calling for an international Arms Trade Treaty which will make it harder for arms to get into the wrong hands.

Act now

Or even better do something extra.

There once was a sysadmin, Eddie,
Who could strip, touch and finger real steady.
But when it came to the mount,
(From his sweetheart's account),
It was always "Device is not ready".

Haven't followed xkcd for a few weeks now. It's a mistake. Big mistake. Missed another classic.

It is a visual proof of the need for wifi brain implants, you just don't know when you'll need direct connection with god. Until then, this is a good tip.
