Il brutalismo in architettura è stato un movimento che metteva in evidenza, svelava, le strutture degli edifici, soprattutto se in cemento armato. Era la reazione agli stili fioriti che l'avevano preceduto prima della Guerra. Oggi nasce un movimento simile anchen nelle interfacce dei siti web? Forse.

Phil Schiller e signora regalano 10 milioni di dollari per la realizzazne di un laboratorio dentro un di studi marini nella californiana Half Moon Bay. Phil Schiller è una delle figure chiave di Apple.
Money quote: “ Bowdoin has received a major gift from Philip Schiller and Kim Gassett-Schiller of Half Moon Bay, California, that will allow the College to substantially expand opportunities for students studying oceans and the environment at its Coastal Studies Center.
Through the support of a $10-million gift from the Schillers, Bowdoin will be able to construct a state-of-the-art dry laboratory connected to the Center’s existing marine laboratory and a convening center. The convening center will include modernized classrooms, housing, and dining facilities for students, faculty, and visiting scholars. It will also serve as a facility for retreats, dialogue, and collaboration among local and national leaders working to address critical issues of coastal and climate concern.”

C'è una cosa ossessiva-compulsiva chiamata Knolling - viene definita anche su Wikipedia - ed è una cosa veramente da malati.
Money quote: "The term was first used in 1987 by Andrew Kromelow, a janitor at Frank Gehry's furniture fabrication shop. At the time, Gehry was designing chairs for Knoll, a company famously known for Florence Knoll's angular furniture. Kromelow would arrange any displaced tools at right angles on all surfaces, and called this routine knolling, in that the tools were arranged in right angles—similar to Knoll furniture.[1] The result was an organized surface that allowed the user to see all objects at once."

Grazie al coraggio dei piloti e del personale di bordo e ai calcoli meteorologi aziendali un volo della Delta Airlines, il DL431, è riuscito a sfidare Irma, un uragano di categoria 5, volando verso San Juan, Puerto Rico, atterrando, recuperando gli ultimi superstiti prima che l'aeroporto chiudesse, e poi riprendere il volo verso casa. Altri voli di altre compagnie ci avevano provato, ma avevano dovuto rinunciare in prossimità dei forti venti dell'uragano Irma. Parecchie persone hanno seguito con ansia e speranza il volo DL431 via internet, tramite FlightRadar24.

Con gli uragani che devastano la costa atlantica meridionale degli Stati Uniti (ma alcuni saliranno, ve lo dico per esperienza di voli bloccati a JFK) e nomi sempre diversi, viene la curiosità magari di sapere chi dà il nome e con quale logica a questi bizzarri e paurosi fenomeni naturali. Salta fuori che alcuni nomi, quando fanno particolarmente danni, li ritirano, come le magliette dei campioni. Bastava wikipedia per la risposta.
Money quote: “The naming of North Atlantic tropical cyclones is currently under the oversight of the Hurricane Committee of the World Meteorological Organization. This group maintains six alphabetical lists of names, with one list used each year. This normally results in each name being reused every six years. However, in the case of a particularly deadly or damaging storm, that storm's name is retired, and a replacement starting with the same letter is selected to take its place. The decision whether to remove a name is made yearly at an annual session of the Hurricane Committee”

A differenza dell’Europa - e dell’Italia in particolare - gli Usa adesso hanno livelli di occupazione molto alta. Tanto che ci sono sei milioni di posti di lavoro per i quali non si trovano le persone da assumere. Questo accade per varie ragioni, ma certamente non è la mancanza di competenze dei lavoratori il nodo del problema. Non parliamo di figure super-specializzate ma di profili con salari che si aggirano attorno ai 10-15 dollari l’ora. Colletti blu, insomma.
I problemi invece sono delle aziende. Perché quello del lavoro è un mercato e, se la domanda di lavoratori supera l’offerta, i prezzi - cioè gli stipendi - devono salire. Se non salgono, qualcosa non torna.
Money quote: “Peter Cappelli, a professor at the University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School, agrees. He says one problem is that companies are posting openings with required qualifications that aren't really necessary for the job.
"They're just asking for the moon, and not expecting to pay very much for it," Cappelli says. "And as a result they [can't] find those people. Now that [doesn't] mean there was nobody to do the job; it just [means] that there was nobody at the price they were willing to pay."”
Tra l’altro, in maniera molto subdola, questo spiega perché Donald Trump chiuda i confini. Ridurre l’afflusso di lavoratori a basso costo vuol dire tenere artificialmente alta l’occupazione interna e i salari degli americani, aumentando quindi il benessere dei suoi elettori a scapito però della redditività e della produttività complessiva.

La tendenza del mercato aereonautico è di utilizzare sistemi di intrattenimento di bordo basati sullo schermo degli utenti. Per fargli vedere i film e dare le altre informazioni utili sul volo si utilizza la connessione Wifi di bordo e un mini-sito locale presente sul server nella stiva dell’aereo. L’azienda leader del settore è Panasonic.

Fantastica (e lunga) storia della London Review of Books su Facebook: un’azienda estremamente ambiziosa e priva di freni morali. Una ricetta esplosiva. Vale la lettura con grande calma.
Money quote: “What this means is that even more than it is in the advertising business, Facebook is in the surveillance business. Facebook, in fact, is the biggest surveillance-based enterprise in the history of mankind. It knows far, far more about you than the most intrusive government has ever known about its citizens. It’s amazing that people haven’t really understood this about the company. I’ve spent time thinking about Facebook, and the thing I keep coming back to is that its users don’t realise what it is the company does. What Facebook does is watch you, and then use what it knows about you and your behaviour to sell ads. I’m not sure there has ever been a more complete disconnect between what a company says it does — ‘connect’, ‘build communities’ — and the commercial reality. Note that the company’s knowledge about its users isn’t used merely to target ads but to shape the flow of news to them. Since there is so much content posted on the site, the algorithms used to filter and direct that content are the thing that determines what you see: people think their news feed is largely to do with their friends and interests, and it sort of is, with the crucial proviso that it is their friends and interests as mediated by the commercial interests of Facebook. Your eyes are directed towards the place where they are most valuable for Facebook”

Berlino si trasforma in una città-spugna. Cioè, una città che assorbe e lascia poi evaporare l’acqua piovana, contribuendo così a un maggiore equilibrio idrotermico. Inoltre, ha stabilito nuove normative per le costruzioni edilizie che tengano in conto il riscaldamento globale e le sue conseguenze.

Il tecnico di una azenda che noleggia apparecchiature fotografiche racconta i pasticci che i suoi clienti hanno fatto per tentare di fotografare l’eclisse solare di qualche giorno fa. Spettacolare, se avete la passione per le cose bruciacchiate e sforacchiate.
Money quote: “The most common problem we’ve encountered with damage done by the eclipse was sensors being destroyed by the heat. We warned everyone in a blog post to buy a solar filter for your lens, and also sent out mass emails and fliers explaining what you need to adequately protect the equipment. But not everyone follows the rules, and as a result, we have quite a few destroyed sensors. To my personal surprise, this damage was far more visually apparent than I even expected, and the photos below really make it visible.”

C'è un tizio che pensa di aggiungere un nuovo passaggio alla storia recente del design di pagine web. Dallo skeuomorfismo al Flat Design e adesso alla sua idea: il Type Design, cioè il corpo grafico (un mio antico insegnante di semiotica parlava di "somatesto", il "corpo fisico del testo") che arreda e proporziona i contenuti. L'idea mi attizza.
Money quote: "We need a better solution for making designs that are faster to iterate but still look beautiful. Our flat designs are not so flat anymore — they take forever to work on, maintain, and change. I’m not saying we should ditch intricate designs entirely; I’m just saying we need a second option"

The Sandbagger è una vecchia serie televisiva britannica degli anni Settanta. Prima di quella “famosa” tratta dai romanzi di LeCarré, The Sandbagger è un piccolo monumento all’ingegno della televisione “povera” in Europa. Si ricorda di più fuori dai confini della perfida Albione perché la lingua è conosciuta /e automaticamente, si ritrova anche in rete). Quacosa di buono da guardare, dice un insolito retro-recensore.
Money quote: “It’s smart, dense, layered, and varied. Norwegian intelligence needs help recovering a downed spy plane. A Middle Eastern prince asks for support in a coup against his father’s government. A psychoanalyst is using his practice as a front for double agents. A sandbagger is trapped behind enemy lines in Russia. Another sandbagger wants to quit so he can settle down and get married. In every situation, director of operations Neil Burnside has to make a decision.”

Si è procurato un computer mostruoso a 24-core e non riesce neanche a muovere il mouse. Windows 10, una certezza...
Money quote: "Amdahl’s law says that if you throw enough cores at your problem then the parts that cannot be parallelized will eventually dominate execution. When my work machine has been heavily used for a few days this serialization issue gets bad enough that process-shutdown becomes a significant part of my distributed build times – and more cores can’t help with that. In order to get maximum build speeds (and if I want to move my mouse while doing builds) I need to reboot my machine every few days. Even then my build speeds are not as fast as they should be, and Windows 7 starts to look tempting.
In fact, adding more cores to my workstation makes the UI less responsive. That is because Chrome’s build system is smart enough to spawn more processes if you have more cores, which means that there are more terminating processes fighting over the global lock. So it’s not just “24-core CPU and I can’t move my mouse” it’s “24-core CPU and therefore I can’t move my mouse.”"
