Some links to myself

Sep 11 2014

An FYI, mostly for people following this feed on RSS: I just put up on my home web site a post about applications for the Simpsons Bookworm browser I made. It touches on a bunch of stuff that would usually lead me to post it here. (Really, it hits the Sapping Attention trifecta: a discussion of the best ways of visualizing Dunning Log-Likelihood, cryptic allusions to critical theory; and overly serious discussions of popular TV shows.). But it’s even less proofread and edited than what I usually put here, and I’ve lately been more and more reluctant to post things on a Google site like this, particularly as blogger gets folded more and more into Google Plus. That’s one of the big reasons I don’t post here as much as I used to, honestly. (Another is that I don’t want to worry about embedded javascript). So, head over there if you want to read it.
