I’ve been finding the same driver driving at 10-20mph on 30-40mph roads on the way into work in the morning, and it is driving me (and a lot of other drivers) nuts. Sure, I can overtake him (and I do, just like lots of other people), but he just doesn’t seem to get the hint. Dangerous overtaking? No, there’s pretty much no-one on the road at 6am in the morning where I am.
Sure wish I could report this guy somewhere…

A while ago, I posted of my frustration with Google Music when it refused to download my tracks. Well, I did some digging around and found that someone had written an API to expose the Google Music backend. The link is at
https://github.com/simon-weber/Unofficial-Google-Music-API
and has spawned several other tools including
https://github.com/thebigmunch/gmusicapi-scripts/
Which is a set of scripts designed to sync, upload and/or download from the Google Music collection.
I wrote my own Python script using the Gmusic API to bulk delete albums from my Gmusic account (it’s easy to bulk upload using Google’s MusicManager, but not to bulk delete), and the gmusicapi-scripts enables me to download most of my tracks.
When the world’s biggest technology companies start playing rough with each other, it’s normally consumers who wind up suffering. This time out, it’s Windows users who are feeling the pain after Google publicly posted the details of a Windows 8.1 flaw before Microsoft could fix it. In a public response to the disclosure, Microsoft’s security chief Chris Betz says that Google’s decision to publish and be damned before his company’s scheduled patch was less about “principles” and more about getting one over on its rival.
Microsoft says ‘no fair’ after Google exposes Windows flaw early.

Graduate? Soon-to-be graduate? Then you better read these….
So they aired the leadup to the journalist’s death as part of the show. As long as the family are okay with it, I have no qualms. Journalists have a bed press (pun intended), with some seeing them as the cause of many deaths and suicides, not naming any names or celebrities. And plus, I can’t see anywhere in the article whether or not the walk was for charity or not. If not, and the walk was solely for the fame, then the question that needs to be asked is “was the fame really worth the cost of Matt Power’s life?”
