Win, lose, or draw: trends in English football match results

Is the game getting more exciting? Football (soccer) fans like to see exciting matches. Draws are boring but wins or losses are interesting; fans want to see teams give their all on the pitch. Which begs the question, is the game getting more or less thrilling over time? One way to answer this question is to look at fraction of matches in a league that end in a draw.

In my opinion, the worst bugs are the ones you decide not to look further into. Maybe the problem only manifests 2% of the time, or when you run the code on a particular brand of toaster. Maybe the customer doesn't supply enough information to begin narrowing down the cause. Maybe you just don't have enough time to track the issue down fully. And everyone eventually moves on.

Superman is a box office hit, but the hard part comes next

Over the weekend, DC Studios’ new Superman feature became this year’s third-biggest box-office debut in the US. The movie’s success is a sign that theatergoers might actually not be quite as tired of superheroes as people tend to think, and that’s particularly notable for Warner Bros., given the studio’s plan to build a new cinematic universe of DC Comics adaptations for the big screen.

The Christopher Reeve Superman movies were everything to me. Posters and toys for Tim Burton’s Batman films were all over my room. And each week, I’d go to the local comic book shop to pick up new issues of X-Men, X-Force, X-O Manowar, Spawn, and so many others.
