K5 is becoming increasing eclectic - less like /. every day. Interesting stuff, when it isn't navel gazing.

For example, there are a couple of articles on particle physics, a discussion about US military doctrine, a guide to eating for cheap, and a discussion about violent video games and sport.

They have nerdyness in common, I suppose, but other than that, they are pretty varied.

What did we ever do before the Internet? Where would we have found a complete list of phobias?

The Grauniad has this article about a net stalker. Be careful out there!

O'Reilly are running a series of articles on Jakarta-Tomcat.

See Part 1, Part 2, Part 3 and Part 4.

I've recently started using Java servlets, and these articles taught me everything I needed to know about their deployment. Well worth a read.

Deadly Bloody Serious mentions the current c.l.py thread, covering the various GUI toolkits available for Python. No mention of the anygui project, I notice.

anygui will be very interesting when ready, I think. For the moment, though, c.l.py tends to lean towards wxPython. I can see why - look what you can do with it. Also, the forthcoming Boa Constructor uses it.

dive into mark pointed the Web Color Visualizer (sic). All this in just 3094 bytes!

Scientific American summarises the modern therories explaining déjà vu. Interesting.
