  Google Removes 'Don't Be Evil' Clause From Its Code of Conduct
  
  from Gizmodo
  
  Google’s unofficial motto has long been the simple phrase “don’t be evil.” But that’s over, according to the code of conduct that Google distributes to its employees. The phrase was removed sometime in late April or early May, archives hosted by the Wayback Machine show.

"Spectacles" as a synonym for "eyeglasses" probably has the quickest semantic satiation of any word I can think of
I say the word once and I'm like "no that's not right"

I just came in to find you here with that sad look upon your face 🎶

@deejoe I mean, do you still have the same computer, or even a continuous carry-over of files from the computer you used in 2001? Hahaha

An image format that includes the original image as taken by the camera, but also a non-destructively applied and constrained set of alterations or filters
So you'd have the original photo data which is never changed, but then it procedurally adds the brightness/contrast changes, straightening/cropping, colour, blur/sharpening, etc.
People could look at an Instagram-style photo and compare to the original, and photo editors wouldn't have to keep multiple copies

Shortly after I bought my very first computer (a 2001 dual-USB Apple iBook running Mac OS 9, but you could boot into Mac OS X if you were feeling adventurous), Apple released iPhoto
And the way they billed the app, it was supposed to replace all those boxes of old negatives and photo albums
It was going to be a permanent digital storage for all the photos you'd take over the years
Welp

Have you ever had one of those moments where you're like lifting the flaps of a box of raisins and you realize that the entire cardboard box construction from concept to manufacturing is a product of the massive wave of commercializing and mass production of packaged food products aimed at post-ww2 housewives trying to single-handedly maintain middle to upperclass living standards without the historically necessary assistance of hired help?

Have any culture ever devised a proper #hexadecimal notation? I'm not speaking about utilizing the Latin #letters (a-f/A-F) as the #digits.
For instance, is there ever a #glyph which would mean "ten" in any context, just like 2 means "two", even if standing alone.
