I don't see this working out so well...

For those outside the Bay Area La Boulange is a small bakery that has expanded to dozens of locations in the Bay Area.  Their coffee is generally better than Starbucks and they offer casual dining with a french theme.

Wonder if they'll keep the free cornichon in the condiments counter?

Upgraded to Fedora 17 "Beefy Miracle" in-place on the same image I've had since Redhat 6.2.  It was a little more challenging than some upgrades due to moving everything into /usr, but overall it's working well.

And the origin of the name is pretty interesting, check it out:

Central Kitchen looks like a great new deli and restaurant in the inner mission. The renovated warehouse space is done really well.

Picked up some Flour+Water dried pasta. Anyone tried it out?

Seen outside the office yesterday. Possible explanations:

- 100 days before Burning Man, gotta prepare for the Playa

- Lady Gaga now works in our building

- New Google bikes are even more theft-deterrent (see how it's not even locked to anything?)

I wasn't expecting LinkedIn to show up here. They have a resourceful blog and they hold some great events. I'll be interested in seeing what they end up doing here.

Note to my former LinkedIn colleagues -- verify your site by following the directions here:

You can even put the rel="publisher" link in the head. No visible link required! Also contact me off-list about getting name verified.

Discovered these guys on Couleur3 yesterday. If you like retro synth and guitars you'll like this. New album can be found at http://www.djangodjango.co.uk/

Thought I'd add some variety to my commute so I'm listening to Couleur3 again on TuneIn. Sort of like the Suisse version of KEXP or The Current they're publicly funded and play an interesting mix of music.

Here's a blast from the past. I wonder if the Google lawyers would let us slip a T-Shirt clause into the next version of the Google terms of service?

[FYI - I'm finally migrating my youtube videos from an old google account to match the account I use for Google+. I recommend you do the same, it's just so much better to have the two accounts linked together...]

This is a great little slice of history from the early 90s. Reminds me of the times I saw BiT perform in the 7th Street Entry back in Minneapolis. And it was satisfying to hear them on his show back then too.

Milk bottles are great, except for the drips when you pour. The folks at Chow restaurant came up with a bottle top that fixes this annoying problem. Just ask, they'll sell you one for a dollar.

They really should sell this online, I was unable to find anything comparable.

We think technology should work for you—to be there when you need it and get out of your way when you don’t.

A group of us from Google[x] started Project Glass to build this kind of technology, one that helps you explore and share your world, putting you back in the moment. We’re sharing this information now because we want to start a conversation and learn from your valuable input. So we took a few design photos to show what this technology could look like and created a video to demonstrate what it might enable you to do.

Please follow along as we share some of our ideas and stories. We’d love to hear yours, too. What would you like to see from Project Glass?

You have a problem running macos NFS Lion via a firewall. You decide to use nfsv4. After a few hours you have five problems.

I knew I was in trouble when all my searches led to the following and nowhere else. (In the end I used fixed rpc port numbers and nfsv3, ugh..)
