In «Principles of Social Evolution», Bourke has a small passage in which he points to mitochondrial transmission as a common…
…theory for the origin of anisogamy, with several authors noting that even in isogamous species organelles have single-parent…
…inheritance. He mentions however that there are other opinions and that it’s an unsettled debate.
I really enjoyed that book, I would recommend it. I can dig up the references he makes later if you want.

Nan, mais «Les Valseuses» par exemple :)
So, the best produced version is one that is inaccessible?
But available << accessible. To people with visual disabilities, to people who only have mobile devices, etc. PDF is pretty bad.
Yes, we are getting towards that with HTML. Part of the problem is getting from non-semantic formats that authors use to that.
It's also a source of painful bugs. It could at least move down the obsolescence hierarchy in the spec.
Oh sa mère! Comment c’est possible?
Nan nan, que ça existe encore! Je ne sais même pas où trouver un tookit pour faire marcher ce genre de truc.

Neither of those options apply, not are they really attractive. Too generic.
Thanks, but no need for secrecy. We’re not using a triple-store, we operate on JSON-LD and never leave that.
We will certainly not use OWL. We are just looking around to see if someone has interesting solutions to graph merging.
Yeah, that’s what I was thinking. It was well over a year here :) @yoavweiss @mikewest

Yes, I’ve thought of that. LaTeX is definitely way better than PDF. Still, it’s very painful to parse right, it encourages…

Yes, but I would probably amortise it within months.
That depends on your usage. I don't see this as replacing books so much as printed out PDFs. I have tons of those, inconvenient.
I even have a few ghostscript hacks to turn a bunch of PDFs into a book Lulu will print but the result isn't great.
Could be the video, hard to tell. Video is rarely great with text :-)
Great projects, if you're looking for web/viz work you should definitely check this out.

Today: 🔥🔥🔥

Yeah, I actually know that. The error was more about thinking that it would fail gracefully — it really didn't.
I was also amused by *how fast* someone beat a path to that bug, in beta software with few users.
Me too! But it does get a little crazy when eg. every cell in a large table has the same footnote…
Also, as you expect, I have a somewhat screwed up notion of «meaningful» :) gist.github.com/darobin/f1d7d3…

I know, I had made a note to fix that before the problem occurred. I was mostly surprised at how fast someone hit it :)
I don’t think that the post-mortem says @rethinkdb was bound to fail as a DB, just as a company, given mistakes and limited cash.

Donc les députés PS qui sentent le vent venir (et sont de gauche plutôt que Mélenchonistes) vont opter Macron. C'est peut être la fin du PS.

oui.
C'est la première fois que j'entends dire de Hamon qu'il a un projet! Macron justement me semble plus crédible sur fond que forme.
Hamon n'a pas tout à fait la dynamique de Trump...
Certes, mais je veux bien parier.
Une adhésion claire à l'économie de marché comme moyen d'aider à déboulonner quelques castes privilégiées?
Hamon il a ressorti les vieux classiques de la gauche, c'est sympa mais rien sur l'économie...
@edasfr Je suis pour hein, mais on en parlait déjà sous Rocard :-) Aussi, c'est un peu court sur le "post-travail".
C'est bien pour ça que je recommanderais Macron :-) @edasfr
Tout à fait! Il faut cependant qu'on pense le sujet plus loin que la simple technique. @edasfr
Hamon est à l'Éducation, le coeur de la machine à inégalités. Tu peux me citer un truc qu'il a fait pour changer ça? @edasfr
Tu insinues que feu le Mouvement Libéral de Gauche n'était pas "à ce niveau politique"? 😀

@rodneyrehm Is there a way in Ally to distinguish between mouse and touch in data-focus-source?

Could github.com/medialize/ally… not expose the distinction, then make it possible to detect the difference?
I’m asking because the designer here would like thicker focus indication for touch (because you can’t see what’s under finger).
Not sure we’d get around to it immediately, but would you take a PR on this?
