Multispectral vision.  Matt and I had a good talk about this on the way home last night.  Our question: if we saw things in different waves (i.e. what if we saw radio waves), would things appear at a lower resolution.

We think that City Gates, one of our Rails applications, might have sprung a little memory leak… something to the tune of 5MB/hour.  In an effor to remedy this, I’ve been using Scott Lairds MemoryProfiler.  And being the visual guy I am, I wanted more visually appealling data to look at (if I’m going to have to trouble shoot something as nasty as this, it might as well look nice).
So I wrote a simple flex application that parses the log file into a pretty graph.

This guy comes across as a little crazy… but his work is amazing… which gives me reason to pause and reflect on my own artistic endeavors may have been received.
