Filed under: Portables, Macbook Pro, MacBookHere's a curious thing. Gearlog is reporting that in testing a MacBook Pro, they found substantially lower performance while running on AC power alone, with the battery removed.

On their new unibody MacBook Pro, Gearlog noted ...

When I spend a whole day talking enthusiastically about mathematics, people come to the unfortunate conclusion that I enjoy mathematics. They would be closer to the mark if they said also that I don't enjoy mathematics purely for the sake of mathematics. You can extend this to other fields like phonology, linguistics, logic, languages, computer science, philosophy, poetry, metaphysics, and epistemology. There is a definite sense in which I don't like or enjoy any of ...

Imagine your thoughts are like a fabric. Peer close, very close and you would see the continuum is an illusion made up by very finely spaced threads. Now peer even closer and see the gaps between them. That is the focus here, the crevices between disciplines. Beautiful :)

Schwab is a well-run asset-gathering machine, with steady revenue streams, pared down costs and branding as the 'honest broker.'

Quick Photo Tip Do not be confused by the term “shutter speed”. Shutter speed isn’t about speed really. It’s about duration of time. Or more specifically, the duration of time that the shutter is open, allowing the light from the subject to come through the lens aperture and be recorded by the sensor or film. In Photoblogosphere News Mostly Lisa has a great little post on shooting textures outdoors. Have you been following Brian’s article ...
