This is not in my wish list for ‘podmas, but I find Pleo quite cute. Do they reproduce?
I’ll wait for something more evolved, say an hybrid between a Real Doll, a Nabaztag and an Asimo, with a MacBook Pro inside. Maybe with some Leopard clothing. How the battery problem will be managed is a good [...]

Bad times for people with a purely mechanics approach of development. And there isn’t only Stuart Pivar I’m talking about, there are also more modest examples. It seems that anteroposterior polarity is determined by genes! Oh dear, how fucking normal that seems! Well, at least if you are realistic

Got Sugar? Glucose Affects Our Ability To Resist Temptation
ScienceDaily (Dec. 4, 2007) — New research from a lab at Florida State University reveals that self-control takes fuel– literally. When we exercise it, resisting temptations to misbehave, our fuel tank is depleted, making subsequent efforts at self-control more difficult.
So, a candy may help increasing are self-control? [...]
