Re: [FRIAM] Friam, meet Jeremy Ashkenas
This is a good example of Jeremy's monetization of open source software http://ashkenas.com/code-reads/ Its a personal code read, mainly for several projects he's created. I'm considering this for AgentScript once we get past our next goal: incorporation of a few professional models. -- Owen On Wed, Mar 27, 2013 at 10:55 AM, Stephen Guerin stephen.gue...@redfish.com wrote: Thanks, Owen.

Thanks, Tom, This is related to one of my complaints. I see no way to ask Feedly (on Chrome) to upgrade itself. I went to the list of Chrome extensions, which has a link to the Feedly website. (When I run Feedly, I don't see a link to the Feedly website from the tab in which it is running.) On the website, a button lets me launch Feedly. When I do it looks the same as always.

This time around of the 8 DVDs I've gotten so far only one played without any issues. It took a bit of digging to get a email adress they have several a dvddstribute and info that looked promising.

Re: [FRIAM] perplexed by netflix
Gil - My wife and I reduced from 3 to 1 about a year ago since we were using streaming for most of our watching. We don't watch as many DVDs as we used to, so it is hard for me to be sure. My instinct is that the incidence of problems with DVDs *IS* higher than ever since we joined in 2005. On the other hand it is like 1 in 8 with a problem not the other way around. I'm not sure what device you are watching them with, have you trie dmore than one? Our Macbook Pro SuperDrives are very touchy. I also have a bottle of Cleaner and Conditioner that seems to both do a good job of cleaning surface problems but also filling small scratches. The disks we have had problems with have had obvious problems like a crack or a deep gouge. Hope this helps. - Steve Recently I thought I'd re-try out the DVD rental system of netflix: Last time I had it all the DVDs I got would play just fine.

Amazon acquired Goodreads, http://www.goodreads.com/ .. a book review/chat/social site. Here's a post on the possible evil but it seems Amazon is sticking to its I'm a retailer, stupid line and I think I agree. http://paidcontent.org/2013/03/28/first-do-no-harm-my-interview-with-amazon-and-goodreads-on-the-future-of-goodreads/ Its interesting that, re: our recent chats about Google, Amazon seems clear. Its retail. No issues. Any evils we commit can be understood from retail. RETAIL, get it?! BTW: As I post this via the new GMail UI, I prefer it to the older one .. a lot more efficient use of space, although you gotta read the manual to figure out where all the menus/buttons are. -- Owen FRIAM Applied Complexity Group listserv Meets Fridays 9a-11:30 at cafe at St. John's College to unsubscribe http://redfish.com/mailman/listinfo/friam_redfish.com
