Print Story A Day in the Life
Falco

Revolutionary or a populist guy?
The people love Chavez and I understand why
Stabilised the economy but messed around with their clocks
And that one knocked off of my socks:
Come on and rock me Venezuela.
Venezuela, Venezuela, Venezuela.
Venezuela, Venezuela, Venezuela.
Venezuela, Venezuela, Venezuela.
Oh oh oh Venezuela.

Poll: I dug out original Unreal Tournament

Print Story A Question of Maths
Logic & Maths
By Driusan (Tue Aug 26, 2008 at 08:10:41 PM EST) (all tags)
With the Canadian and USian election looming, I'm trying to figure out a way to do realtime online polling which:
  1. Displays results of the question "Who do you intend to vote for?" and margin of error in realtime, rather than after being analyzed by a statistician and reported on by the media.
  2. Let's voters update their vote if they change their mind
  3. Isn't possible to link between a user and who they voted for.
The goal is to make it possible for a pundit or interested third party to say "How are the results looking now?" whenever they want, rather than whenever Angus Reid wants. Stats is far from my best math, so I'm not sure if the idea I just came up with will produce statisticly relevant results.

gzt? Help?

Had difficulties because I didn't know the password, so I had to call my roommate in Hawaii so he could reset the password for the account with the ISP.

This will someday happen to me: http://www.nataliedee.com/082608/i-love-you-cheerio-but-all-good-things-must-come-to-an-end.jpg
