davidog.png Dave Bacon is a theoretical ski bum who is also a pseudo professor. His research is on quantum computing, his scientific passions extend to everything in physics, mathematics, computer science and beyond, and his personal pleasures include making wine, playing poker, skiing, camping, and daydreaming (although not all of those at the same time.) Nothing he says on this blog should be construed as having anything to do with his employer or his dog.

Via Digg, an article on hilarious Google searches. Hmm, reminds me of one I discovered a while back. (Below may or may not be NSFW, depending on your level of puritanism. And it can certainly lead to clicking which is definitely NSFW.)

I've made similar mistakes. The google search for "man strftime", for instance, gives about 8 results for unix manual pages relating to various implementations of strftime. The google search for "man date", as I recall, is rather less helpful.

I think everybody in a technical field has probably found some pretty sketch stuff when googling for things related to LaTeX.
