Floating-point round-off somewhere? Probably. <b>Update</b>, March 24, 2008: The bug is half-fixed. Today, Google displays +47° 0' 0.00&quot;, -119° 59' 60.00&quot; as the coordinates of this location. <p><img src="https://media.unpythonic.net/emergent-files/01201106204/math-is-hard.png"> 2006-08-26T00:48:59Z 2006-08-26T00:48:59Z https://gamma.unpythonic.net/01156553339 From http://www.joinfear.com/main, and presented without further comment: <br><img src="https://media.unpythonic.net/emergent-files/01156553339/my-language.png"> 2005-06-24T01:29:50Z 2005-06-24T01:29:50Z https://gamma.unpythonic.net/01119576590-stross-accelerando-ebook Charles Stross has released a downloadable, <a href="http://creativecommons.org/">creative-commons</a> version of <a href="http://www.accelerando.org/">Accelerando</a>, &quot;a fictional depiction of a possible Technological Singularity lying in our near future&quot;. I'm still in the first part, which I had also read in a copy of Asimov's Sci-Fi. It's good stuff. I'm glad I'll be able to read it from start to end, not in a random order whenever I travel and check out whatever copies of the magazine happen to be at the library the day I leave town.
