It’s almost here! BarCamp Orlando 2008<\/a>!<\/p>\n

I’m thinking about doing a presentation on Bayesian probability<\/a>. I’ve learned some stuff about it from the Loud3r project<\/a> that I’ve been working on, and it’s pretty fascinating stuff. It’s a very elegant way of quickly computing the odds of something happening given a few basic pieces of information. I figure a short introduction to the concept is good, and it’ll give me something to talk about further with people if they are interested.<\/p>\n

It’s hard to know what people might want to hear. Last BarCamp was so diverse on topics; people did things including geographical\/topographical mapping, OpenID, open source robotics (Arduino), and the open source cell phone. I personally like it because it’s a good survey of interesting ideas — you can pick what’s interesting and learn more about it later.<\/p>\n

So if you’re not going yet, sign up and check it out. It’s gonna be awesome.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
