of Mass Destruction. A nice analogy. (I’ve always thought that
“pasteurized cheese food” is actually the stuff they feed to
cheese, personally.)
I am currently a software engineer at Google, where as a member of the Android platform team I build frameworks and user interfaces.
The blog here at dsandler.org is mostly historical; you can find more recent posts on Google+.

From The Hollywood Reporter via the Big Green
‘Dot: Martin Freeman (Tim, from “The Office”) and Zooey Deschanel
(from secretly-hilarious Will Ferrell vehicle “Elf”) cast in the new
Hitchhiker’s Guide film.
Oh, also from Flak, a nice little obit for Lorenzo
Music. You know, I had forgotten that he voiced the cartoon version
of Dr. Peter Venkman. So it’s fitting that Bill Murray should voice the
CGI animated “Garfield”; there’s a cosmic balance to it—something
about the Conservation of Voiceover Momentum or something.
Fascinating, probing, frustrating, wonderful: Flak
magazine takes on “Lost in Translation”.
This month’s Wired mag has a
story on The Minibosses.
Aside 1:
Matt Smith has done some
great posters and cover art for them. My fave:
Samus,
Simon, and a pudgy Mega Man (must be all those Koopa Wings he eats).
Aside 2: from last October: “I can
quit concealing that I listen to mix CDs of video game music from Mega Man and
the Legend of Zelda in my car!”
Wired News looks at science
fiction at Sundance this year.
