    They Have Me Beat

    FRASER – the Federal Reserve’s library – is one of the resources I lean on if I’m looking for metrics about the economy, or just trying to stuff my head with useless knowledge. [fraser] It’s a cousin site to FRED [fred] both from the St Louis Federal Reserve.

    For Love of Old Hunks of Precision Metal

    Alec Steele is a young British blacksmith who does charming videos about his adventures with making stuff. He and Ford Hallam are single-handedly changing my attitude toward youtube; it’s not entirely a cess-pit: it’s what we take from it.

    Magical Surrealism In The City

    [Warning: Giant Spiders, Giant Hydraulic Spiders]

    Street Theater’s a risky business – sometimes you can enthrall a crowd and pull them in and everyone puts down what they’re doing and watches and enjoys – other times you create a traffic jam and hard feelings.

    Just Sequence Everything!

    One of the many podcasts I follow is Adam Savage’s Untitled, the Adam Savage Project. It’s pretty good when he gets started on film-making or special effects, and sometimes it’s really interesting.

    Tactical Honeytokens

    I ordered a tactical defense knife (“the perfect tool for women”) [stderr] so I can use it for some test-cutting. I’m not sure where I’ll go with this, but I am probably too busy/lazy to make my own tactical llap goch sgean dgu to compare against, so I may have to use my Vietnam War-era Gerber MK I.
