The first wave of the post-OpenWorld stories is upon us, as in this summation from Amis Technology Blog: OOW 2012 – The Big Stories.

Coding

Over at Gorban.org there's a rather inspirational Software Architecture cheat sheet. It has items like 'Testable', 'Orthogonal', etc. All very laudable. Very unlike my architecture cheatsheet from the time, years ago, that I was a developer. That one ran: "Do they pay me enough for this grief? Yes --> Code it. No --> Distract the client by pointing up and saying 'Look, an eclipse!' and run out of the room."

…And Finally

As we wrote earlier, there are teams of scientists working on a warp drive. Now there’s another group developing dilithium crystals.  The 3-d printers are a long way from being replicators, unless you want ‘Tea, Earl Grey, Plastic’, but we seem to be getting closer to Star Trek by the week.

And if you are going to start building Data the android you might want to look at David Deutsch’s views on artificial intelligence. He’s one of the great minds of our age, so it’s worth a read.

Is your organization spread all over the globe (though not the galaxy, yet)? Robin King found a very handy utility for finding meeting times for people in a variety of time zones.

Over at Lifehacker, something clever, verging on devious. I like that.  Make a Coughing Ringtone to Go Unnoticed When You Forget to Silence Your Phone.
