Writer's delight


Writer's delight 08/27/2004 01:22 PM
PhotoMatt links today to a brilliant site, Opening Hooks, which has a database of opening lines to books. That is a subject I have always loved, from the bad to the great, my all time favorite being: Aujourd’hui, maman est morte. Ou peut-être hier, je ne sais pas. J’ai recu un télégramme de l’asile: "Mère décédée. Enterrement demain. Sentiments distingués". Cela ne veut rien dire. C’était peut-être hier. Albert Camus, L'Etranger Somebody had already put the quote in, in the English, which is much inferior to the French, so I remedied that omission. What a great idea. If there is one thing that bloggers have in common, it is that they are writers, in most cases wanting to be better writers. What a fun way to help them, mobilize them, and energize them, all at the same time. Congratulations, Noah Feldman, whoever you are. And I hope you put search in soon....

Tilting a PowerBook, Hackers Delight


Tilting a PowerBook, Hackers Delight 03/22/2005 04:23 PM

Motion sensors in laptops are not new, IBM’s Thinkpads had several series that utilized it. But what is new is the ability to program the sensors to do some cool things. Apple’s Sudden Motion Sensor in the new PowerBooks detect strong vibrations or sudden motion and park the drives. Now the sensor can detect the angle of the PowerBook and the velocity of the movement. This makes for a hacker’s delight.

Enterprising hackers have discovered that because the new motion sensor returns reasonably accurate measurements to Mac OS X, it can be used to do some cool tricks, from realigning an image in a window so it always points up, no matter what angle you hold the laptop at, to controlling what's playing in iTunes -- rock the machine backward to go to the next track, forward to play the previous one. 

Amit Singh, the researcher whose work has sparked a wave of small yet useful tilt-sensitive programs, discovered the motion sensor when working on a book about the internals of OS X, and was immediately struck by its potential… One of the first programs to utilize Singh's work was Bubblegym, a game written by Peter Berglund. Berglund's reaction when seeing the code that Singh had produced was typical of many coders working on tilt-sensitive projects: "I thought it was amazing -- I got the same feeling of awe as the first time I saw a color screen and the first time I saw a QuickTime clip," he said. Out of this evolved Bubblegym< /em>, which Berglund believes is the first tilt-sensitive game for a computer. Berglund's work earned praise from Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak, who wrote a personal e-mail of congratulations -- something that Berglund described as "a cooler thing than any game or technology itself."

Hexatech Driving Simulator


Hexatech Driving Simulator 03/14/2005 06:03 PM

hexatech_cutout_1_.jpgFCS Company's Hexatech Racing Simulator is just what you need (racing-enthusiast-cum -millionaire that you are) for that spare Great Room in your summer home. The 170 square-foot system consists of a race car cockpit with a force feedback steering wheel, and, before I forget, a driver seat and visual system mounted on a six-degrees of freedom Electric Motion platform. The Hexa moves across all axes near-effortlessly, in all directions and all rotations. This means that the system can impart on you over two G's of acceleration forces at its whim while you sit immersed in its 3 x 23" TFT display system and THX Dolby surround sound system. Launched at Six Flags Holland, it's safe to assume these aren't exactly meant for consumer purchase. However, their three-minute video totally sells the experience and I absolutely want one, even if it doesn't come with that swanky progressive neo-lounge soundtrack playing in the background.
