Förbud mot danska varor hävt i Sudan SvD Utrikes(cached at April 9, 2014, 11:03 pm)

Den sudanesiska regeringen meddelade på onsdagskvällen att förbudet mot import av danska varor hävs. Importförbudet infördes år 2008 på order av president Omar al-Bashir, efter att danska tidningar återigen publicerat karikatyrer föreställande profeten Mohammed. Det var framför allt tecknaren Kurt Westergaards bild där profeten fanns avbildad med en bomb i turbanen som väckte anstöt i den muslimska världen. Tolv bilder publicerades, med början 2005, inledningsvis av Jyllands-Posten.

How Riot's Social Scientists Fight League of Legends</em> Trolling Slashdotby Soulskill on games at January 1, 1970, 1:00 am (cached at April 9, 2014, 10:33 pm)

An anonymous reader writes "There's an interesting interview up today with Jeffrey Lin, lead designer of social systems for Riot, the game studio behind League of Legends. Lin has a PhD in cognitive neuroscience. His recognition that most trolls are only trolls because they're having an off day has changed the way that Riot punishes players. 'In other words, you need a carrot and not a stick. Where a punishment would come across as harsh and out-of context, pointing out to players that they're letting their usually-high standards of conduct slide usually results in a change of attitude. Incentivising the good behaviour with an Honour stat which could be affected by conduct in any match also serves to reinforce that good behaviour.' As a result, Lin's seen a noticeable spike in the number of people saying 'GG' (good game) at the end of a match. It leaves you wondering: what if Activision approached Call of Duty griefers on Xbox Live the same way?"

Raspberry Pi's Eben Upton: How We're Turning Everyone Into DIY Hackers Slashdotby Soulskill on hardhack at January 1, 1970, 1:00 am (cached at April 9, 2014, 10:33 pm)

redletterdave writes "Eben Upton is the CEO of the Raspberry Pi Foundation's trading company, where he oversees production and sales of the Raspberry Pi. In a lengthy interview with ReadWrite, Upton shares how he invented Raspberry Pi, and what's coming next for the $35 microcomputer. Quoting: 'There's a big difference between [just] making a platform like Raspberry Pi available and offering support for it. I think if you just make it available, you'll find one percent of eight-year-olds will be the one percent who love that sort of thing and will get into it, regardless of how much or how little support you give them. ... [S]ince we can afford to pay for the development of educational material, we can afford to advocate for good training for teachers throughout this. There's an opportunity to get more than one percent. There's an opportunity to reach the bright kids who don't quite have the natural inclination to personally tackle complicated technical tasks. If you give them good teaching and compelling material that's relevant and interesting to them, you can reach ten percent, twenty percent, fifty percent, many more. We look back to the 1980s as this golden era [of learning to program], and in practice, only a very few percent of people were learning to program to any great degree. ... I think the real opportunity for us now, because we can intervene on the material and teacher training levels, we can potentially blow past where we were in the 1980s.'"
