Interesting social experiment time: on thanksgiving night, my quadcopter backpack was stolen from my car and it’s contents strewn over the front yard of the former Longfellow school on Broadway in Cambridge. Literally hundreds of parts inside all labeled with my name and cell.

In a few hours the yard was emptied, presumably by passerbys. So that means hundreds of tools with my name and cell are now scattered about the Boston area. Aside from the initial report of the bag being found, I have yet to receive a single call.

Curious if anyone will call at all. Already ordered replacement parts. Not more than $1000 in stuff. But still bummed because nearly everything had been extensively customized over hundreds of hours.
OK twitter braintrust - there is a mysterious CAT5/6 drop in my apartment's wiring closet assigning addresses in the 100.x subnet. I get my internet through Xfinity so unclear what this is for. Anyone recognize this type of infrastructure? Here's nmap: gist.github.com/jgilbert20/c…

Gilbert’s Law: the cinematographic qualities of camera phones will be increasingly emulated by film and TV as a way to enhance realism — as the FOV and placement are increasingly seen by our our subconsciousness visual centers as signals of authenticity.

Today this is already done but I think it’s only going to increase.
The only barrier to biomedical innovation in Cambridge is the Cambridge-Allston Exit on the Mass Pike.

Intel is at risk for a massive lawsuit. It will be trivial to demonstrate damages - basically forced people to upgrade their computers sooner to avoid a performance bit. Even if unplanned upgrades only occurs in 1/100 installs it’s super bad news. – at Cambridge, MA
