A long time ago, I made a Web app in PHP 3 and MySQL that was a mini Yahoo! hosted at the consultancy I worked for, Clear Ink. At some point, we released the source code on our Working Dogs site. This predated SourceForge, IIRC. Someone asked me for a copy, since Working Dogs is long gone. Here’s the link in case anyone else is interested.

For my January #1gam, I wanted to do something that’d be both small in scope and something that I hadn’t really done before.

The theory is that if you take in non-alcohol calories with alcohol, your body absorbs the alcohol at a slower rate. It’s already getting energy from the sugars. Aspartame has no calories available to the body, so it’s like it’s not there. Therefore, if you have a “diet” jack and coke, you will your buzz a little faster than a “classic” jack and coke.

Alex argues that if you care to convince people to fight an injustice, such as the torture of innocents, do not talk about how terrible the injustice is. Spin it as a minor issue that can be easily fixed, or turn it into an us versus them scenario. It’s clear this strategy works on lesser issues, such as with office politics.

If the world is just, only the guilty are tortured. So believers in a just world are more likely to think that the people who are tortured are guilty. Perhaps especially so if they experience the torture closely and so feel a greater need to overcome cognitive dissonance. On the other hand, those farther away from the experience of torture may feel less need to justify it and they may be more likely to identify the tortured as victims. The theory of moral typecasting suggests that victims are also more likely to be seen as innocents (a la Jesus).
