Solid version history overview of iOS from the original iPhone to present day.

I think these three metrics are a good way to categorize games.

Great discussion with John Lasseter of the creativity that goes into Pixar's work.

A good overview of CarrierIQ's capabilities, showing that it's not as scary as it could be... but that individual manufacturers and carriers have done crappy things with its output that allow for the demonstrated security breaches.

Quick history of Android OS versions. I hadn't noticed that the dessert names were in alphabetical order. Of course this glosses over the horrendous UI things manufacturers and carriers have built on top of the core OS...

The original $1 algorithm, which I needed for reference when implementing $N.

The baseline template-based recognizer I'm using in my final project.

Good reference on math typesetting.

Explains how to typeset algorithms when usepackage{algpseudocode} is set.

One of the best ones in this genre I've seen, although using a programmable oscilloscope seems a bit cheaty.

I like the movie soundtrack theme. I think it's safe to say Huntsman is the GOP candidate I could live with, even though we disagree on a lot of issues (especially pro-life).

Wacky story. It's got to be weird going back to being a bureaucrat in Buffalo after being Prime Minister of Somalia.

He's definitely back in campaign mode. I don't see how any Rs in congress have an incentive to implement anything.

The Postal Service is cutting services to avoid bankruptcy. How did it get into such a sorry state?

Cool concept, but unless you have old cartridges, not useful. The future is downloading.

This is precisely the overlap between art and science that I love.

I guess this is a complete segment from a longer movie on skiing?

I'm a bit uncomfortable with the line "bartering like savages", but I agree the penny needs to die. I didn't realize foreign US military bases don't use pennies for logistic reasons.

Crazy that UEO still exists from that era.

I am very much enjoying the trend of music played on old computer hardware.

It would be good to get an explanation of why the API refuses to handle these requests.

This is cool and creepy. Especially the dude's catalog smile.

Great use of assumptions to hit you in the gut emotionally.

Heh. Christmas Price Index. I guess there is a bit of inflation?

I find most scientific discovery awe-inspiring.

mp3:http://bit.ly/oRYyiV - A musical celebration of the importance and inspirational qualities of space exploration (human and robotic), as well as a look at some of the amazing worlds in our solar system. Featuring Neil deGrasse Tyson, Brian Cox, and Carolyn Porco. "Onward to the Edge" is the 12th installment in the Symphony of Science series. Materials used in this video are from : My Favorite Universe #7 - Onward to the Edge (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LEYoTwFBqFs) BBC Wonders of the Solar System Carolyn Porco TED talk (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xxXa9pxwzoY) NatGeo "Guide to the Planets" Thanks for watching! Lyrics: [Neil deGrasse Tyson] The act of moving onward means we pass these sign posts One of them was first leaving earth The next one is hanging out on the moon What's next? The planets Onward to the edge We're moving onward to the edge Here we are together This fragile little world [Brian Cox] This is our sun Just another star in a sea of stars The heart of the solar system Just another star in a sea of stars Mercury is the closest planet This tortured piece of rock has been stripped naked [Tyson] The moon has a sky It has a horizon It's another world It's got earth in the sky Just the way we have the moon in the sky (refrain) We're not the only world to think about Worlds unnumbered We're not the only world to think about Think about worlds unnumbered [Carolyn Porco] There is a powerful recognition That stirs within us When we see our own little blue ocean planet In the skies of other worlds The Saturn system Offers splendor beyond compare Because of its rings And very diverse moons [Tyson] These are no longer abstractions These are worlds Maybe there's life there They've changed how we think about Earth [Cox] "A mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam The pale blue dot" (Carl Sagan) (refrain) The laws of nature create Vastly different worlds With the tiniest of changes [Tyson] When I reach to the edge of the universe I do so knowing that along some paths of cosmic discovery There are times when, at least for now, One must be content to love the questions themselves

Using a simplified variation of this in nJest.

Cute, in a Toy Story way.

Fascinating considerations. It's not just screen vs. print anymore.
