SCIENCE! For Michele, Chris, Elke, and Jenn.

Perfect morning for a run.

Dog was very happy to get a run. My back is a little tweaked from the plane.

Overheated a bit, and dehydrated, and whiny.

Ugh. Gastric distress.

Another short one for the dog, though my energy is low.

Shannon Posniewski's 2.6 miles run

Wow. Google to buy Twitch?

Half with the dog (who is injured a little) and half alone. Felt OK.

Jenn Jumper, Kat O'Leary

hot but not too hot. Forgot to shut off GPS at end.

Early to beat the heat.

Body was weak, but mind was... also week. Dog to the rescue!

Nice run today.

Ran with Divi Squirrelchaser today.

I did not want to run today. Divi did, so we went. But blaaaahhh...

Jack, important scientific analysis.

Divi was so excited to run that she didn't eat breakfast... and she bonked at 3.5 miles.

Got hot outside quickly. Felt pretty good.

I have always thought the whole concept behind "Do not track" was flawed. For it to work, it requires web sites to pay attention to a flag that the client sets. But there's no way for to know if they are actually honoring this flag. I just assumed that sites would not do so if there was a buck to be made.

Yahoo has announced that they're going to ignore "Do not track" settings. Props to them about being up front about it. I hope this kills DNT so people don't have a false sense of security through it.

"Do not track" was inherently defective. It should serve as an example of how once the horse is out of the barn, it's too late. We should not be surprised that people can track our movements via plane manifests, fastpass, or IP logs. Policy and legislation can't stop it. (Law can and should restrict what is allowable in a courtroom, but can't stop the actual activity.) The only way to avoid this surveillance is to make sure no footprints are left, which is increasingly unlikely with statistical analysis methods (such as those applied to de-anonymize Tor).
