Dave Morin: Path: We are sorry.
Well, that’s not a bad response.

Schreer Design has created an analog amplifier for the iPhone called the iVictrola Gramophone, based on the old Gramophones of the late 19th and 20th centuries. The amplifier comes in two parts, including a sound magnifier and horn, which is adjustable up and down.
The best part? This is 3D printed. (via)

NY Times: In Data Deluge, Multitaskers Go to Multiscreens.
I recently switched from a single 15” 1440×800 MacBook Pro display to three screens: the MBP and two external 1920×1080 monitors (whose diagonal sizes I’m uncertain of, but let’s say 21”). I think it’s helped, especially with having editor, browser, and dev tools on screen at once, with less important stuff glanceable at one side.
I suspect my next home setup will be an Air with a 27” Thunderbolt display acting as a hub. I’m looking forward to it.
Having said all that, 10 seconds for every five minutes of work? That seems like a micro-optimisation.

My dad photographs the windmills he helps build in various parts of the world. Pictured, Criterion — in the hills of western Maryland near Oakland.
That’s nice, that.

- Borman: (laughing) You got a color film, Jim?
- Anders: Hand me that roll of color quick, will you...
