Link Round-Up: Technology

Generally geeky things. Or new doohickeys. And a thingamabob or two.

• From Steel White Table, the newest
  recruiting billboard for geeks. This immediately reminded me of Electronic
  Arts’s local
  effort last winter.
• Is it really ruggedized? Snuff
  photos for techies.
• I guess these qualify as technology. A while back, I referenced the Niplette,
  and said they should call it the Anistonizer. I’d like to revoke that title
  and hand it to the good (if misguided) folks at Body
  Perks (what is that woman pointing to on the home page? Is she flagging
  a cab? Insert headlights joke here).
• Everything
  I learned at MIT. And I don’t understand any of it. Don’t they teach,
  I don’t know, 19th Century Drama at MIT?
• A bunch of videos
  from NotCon, a UK geekfest. I particularly liked Danny O’Brien’s Life Hacks.
• Going to drink and drive in the US? Assess the penalty state-by-state with
  the DWI calculator.
  Personally, I want a nation-wide calculator which will identify the states
  with the least harsh sentences. Then I’ll be able to plan my cross-country
  booze-up.
• From Gizmodo,
  we find single-use,
  automatic circumcisions. The Gizmodo entry is pretty funny, as it uses
  the term Bris-O-Matic. L’Chaim!
• 14-page interview with Bill Gates from Scientific
  American (PDF).
