The Gates Techno-twits and Data Miners Are Ready to Ruin the University, Too

Twitch And Smoke And Rotate Endlessly
(Around about the 4th of July Meteor Blades put up “Thoughts Ahead Of Independence Day,” over on the Orange Place. (That was a good Diary. It reminded me somewhat of something I’d penned myself, back in the 1990s. Not nearly as polished and precise, mine, as Meteor’s work; but then, after all, he is he, and I am me. (Then, later that very same day—because sometimes that’s the way these things hap
The Green Light
The very most interesting thing about the United States is that it died even as it was born. As expressed in Fitzgerald’s The Great Gatsby, which must serve as the “great American novel,” for there shall never be another: Most of the big shore places were closed now and there were hardly any lights except the shadowy, moving glow of a ferryboat across the Sound. And as the moon rose higher the ine

Proximity Hunt: Exoplanets Around Nearby Stars
Finding new worlds with Kepler is an absorbing occupation, but the one thing missing from most exoplanet news is proximity. While we continue to search for planets around the Alpha Centauri stars, the closest candidate I know about is the gas giant thought to orbit Epsilon Eridani, some 10.5 light years out. If you’re looking for potential habitability, you have to extend all the way out to Gliese
