From www.zog.net.au , Feel what it's like to be Google, watch people freak out.. http://fffff.at/google-street-view-car/
For Transmediale 2010 F.A.T. members met in Berlin and produced a series of projects dedicated to the topic of the week: FUCK GOOGLE. In addition to free software, browser addons, live streams, communiques and on-site workshops, F.A.T. Lab built a fake Google Street View car and conquered the city of Berlin! All FG projects!
Sometimes you need to use a different drupal view when you're displaying different group types with Drupal's organic groups (OG) module, for example you might have a group thats mostly about files, and a group that's mostly about posting other items or something.
OG doesn't let you have different configurations for each node type (yet) so you can do this with a little hack, simply hit up the global $conf variable and replace it with what you need, and ensure this executes before OG does.
Zend IDE mysteriously stopped debugging, firefox toolbar just would not start the debugger and always said Zend was not detected no matter what i done, turns out, it was listening on ipv6 ports
So a certain website of mine has been going strong for a couple of years now, attracting roughly 125,000 impressions a month, 6000 unique viewers, month after month and growing.
"Zend Debugger requires Zend Engine API version 220060519."
From what i've gathered, looks like Zend dont fully support the latest php 5.3, so downgrade unfortunately is the answer!
If you're still using skype, even tho you are sick and fucking tired of skype making shady deals with other providers and not letting you get the compiled 64bit (they provide you with a 32bit binary, even tho they say its for a 64bit machine), and you've installed all the relative ia32-* compatability libraries, and you are getting various odd errors like skype not finding libstdc++.so.6 then, i recommend strace's to sort it out..
not to mention the linux version being at 2.1 and windows at 4!!
not rocket-science, but something handy for debugging/developing web apps, use this to pretty print and validate the JSON responses
Two really frustrating things that one needs to adjust to when writing python applications for google's appengine, which for me I hit straight away because I was writing a 'mashup' type webapp which involves consuming services and processing the data into something new and hopefully fanstastic
Any ideas how i'de write some engine to figure out relationships between topics on teh intarwebs?
suggestions high or low level etc? This is an application of Ontology right?
ie, learn that drupal is related to php, civicrm is related to drupal (civicrm is a sideproject using drupal)
could do straight keyword analyses but im not sure thats the way
or is this the same 'holy grail' that search engines are trying todo? ie figure out that a dog is an animal, and the dog subject is related to animal?
The Onion (running drupal 4.7 which may be the reason ;) are moving away from Drupal, as discovered here

We wanted to post earlier why we like/use Django, but, we get pretty busy around here, so a bit late. Sorry if this is duping any existing threads.
