If we stigmatize sex offenders for life then its clear we should do the same for sociopathic cops. The time has come for a police brutality register. Once on the list you will be required to notify everyone in your neighborhood that you brutalized an innocent person and abused your power.
9 Feb 2012 | 6:09 am/r/politics... its time for a come to Jesus moment. This post was made as an experiment and a bet with a friend to see how ridiculous of a statement could make the front page. Please... I implore you. Think about what you are actually discussing instead of pushing mindless emotional drivel to the top. This post is absolute nonsense based on hysterical sensationalism and it hit the front page in less than three hours. Please. Consider your politics and ask yourself how you are any different than the nutcase Republicans that make up the Fox base, because I honestly don't see a difference… -

How Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson Lays the Smackdown on Social Media
9 Feb 2012 | 3:04 pm“Can you smelllllll….What the The Rock! Is cooking?!?” That became a ubiquitous catchphrase when Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson was a Worldwide Wrestling Federation megastar around the turn of the millennium. Unlike most wrestling-ring bruisers, however, Johnson has done a lot more than just “lay the smack down” on hapless “jabronis,” as he was fond of saying. He won a college football national championship as a hard-hitting defender at the University of Miami in 1991. He’s become a bona fide movie star too, appearing in action hits such… -

9 Feb 2012 | 2:25 pmRomantic math geeks, your moment has arrived. In the spirit of Valentine’s Day, go ahead and type (or paste) this into Google search: sqrt(cos(x))*cos(300x)+sqrt(abs(x))-0.7)*(4-x*x)^0.01, sqrt(6-x^2), -sqrt(6-x^2) from -4.5 to 4.5 Twitter user @Huckberry tipped us off to the fact that typing in the algebraic equation plots several different functions on a graph that forms the shape of a heart. The series includes various square roots, absolute values and cosine functions — mathematical functions often taught in high school math courses. The plotted lines change direction due to… -
Microsoft: You’ll Never Turn Off Devices Running Windows on ARM
9 Feb 2012 | 2:02 pmMicrosoft described in detail Thursday exactly how Windows will work on ARM devices. The new strain of Windows, retooled from the ground up for low-power devices like tablets, will be identical to the regular desktop version in many ways, and Microsoft says it’ll ship some test units to developers by the end of February. Actual products are planned for the general release of Windows 8. In a departure from traditional Windows machines, ARM-based devices running Windows will be complete “end-to-end” products, meaning you won’t be able to buy Windows as a piece of… -

Tim Ferriss Getting His Ass Kicked + How to Survive a Physical Attack (Video Series)
8 Jan 2012 | 4:11 pmThis post might seem odd, as it starts with a random sequence from a random skill. There are three reasons for this: 1) I like to expose readers to things they’ve never explored. 2) The best long-term policy for keeping a blog fun to read (and write) is to cover things that subsets of your readers love, not things that everyone merely likes. 3) I think all of you should know how to respond to a real physical attack. Keeping these in mind, I hope you enjoy a lil’ taste of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, often nicknamed “human chess.” If it’s not your thing, I still suggest… -

1 Jan 2012 | 9:17 pmArticle 126: No brown M&M’s! (Photo: Mr. T in DC) Happy New Year, all! I’ll be putting up a “Lessons learned in 2011″ post soon. In the meantime, here is a taste of things to come. I can come across as anal retentive, even severely Monk-ish. One reason for the madness: with rare exceptions, I’ve come to believe that how we do anything is how we do everything. I’m not alone. The following is a short excerpt from The Checklist Manifesto by Atul Gawande, also reprinted by Tehelka magazine in India. In it, we learn the logic of David Lee Roth’s… -
